First 12 questions of the quiz are alright. There are some issues in my opinion with the explanations here and there, like for example:
❓ Who painted the Mona Lisa? ℹ️ Da vinci is totally known for his amazing mathematically formulated painting of 'Mona Lisa' 💬 Let's forget the lack of capital letter in the last name but this explanation shouldn't be just repeated answer. I feel like there could be so much more said about Da Vinci there or Mona Lisa alone.
❓ Who was the first Western explorer to reach China? ℹ️ Marco Polo Though he was not the first European to reach China (see Europeans in Medieval China), Marco Polo was the first to leave a detailed chronicle of his experience. 💬 So he was... or wasn't? If he wasn't then question should be different - "Which Western explorer was one of the first to reach China?". Also, where I can see "Europeans in Medieval China" from the explanation? It seems like it's missing the link.
❓ When did World War II begin? ℹ️ World War II Started on Sep 1, 1939 – Ended on Sep 2, 1945 💬 It's semi-repeated answer. Could be so much better, like "World War 2 started in September 1, 1939 with Hitler's invasion of Poland."
❓ What is Alexander Graham Bell famous for inventing? ℹ️ Alexander Graham Bell Invented The Telephone. Read More On The Amazing Story. 💬 It seems like link is missing for "Read More On The Amazing Story."
❓ Which Planet is of special scientific interest because of it’s similarities to Earth and it’s named for the Roman god of war? ℹ️ Mars is of special scientific interest because of it’s similarities to Earth and it’s named for the Roman god of war. 💬 Explanation is just repeated question + answer.
After the question 12th, this quiz a bit spirals down (with exception of few questions) - there are not many educational questions there, just some 'fun' questions with word plays, it's not educational at all, it's just - I don't know - entertaining I guess, but many are wrong. Like "How many times can you subtract 5 from 40", well you can subtract infinite numbers of time in theory.
If this quiz focused only on educational topics and provided better explanations it would be so much better.
Unfortunately, this test will not be able to receive a prize:
Not an original test. Questions, answers, explanations were copied from an existing test. E.g.:
