| Muggle Studies Jeopardy Final For some fun the final exam will be in the form of Jeopardy, a muggle game show that muggles watch on a box they call Television. Answers must be given in the form of a question for example: If the question were: A muggle studies professor at Hogwarts, who has a mysterious past. The answer would be: Who is Professor Evans. All questions are worth one point. Have fun and enjoy! 1. Government by the people 2. Tim Berners-Lee created the world wide web in this year. 3. Born in 1889 and died in 1945, he was considered one of the worlds most evil men 4. This evil muggle man was recently removed from power and is currently on trial for crimes against humanity. 5. This man is famous for his "I have a dream" speech. 6. On this day Rosa Parks decided to begin a revolution for not wanting to give up her seat on a bus. 7. The love that remains when all thoughts of violence are disspelled. 8. It took Ghandi this many days to march to the sea and he travelled this many miles. 9. He said, "Non-violence is the greatest force at the disposal of mankind." 10. Penicillin was created when this man went on vacation. 11. The century in which Ghandi was born in. 12. The average life expectancy has increased by this much over the past century. 13. Holding firmly onto the deepest truth and soul-force. 14. The Paris Expostion of 1900 featured wireless telegraphs, tape recorders and this machine used widely today. 15. There was this many visitors to the 1900 Exposition. 16. Philo Farnsworth was given official patents to this muggle invention that is widely used today.
What is the television? Bonus: Based on the ticker in my signature (the place under my posts where pictures are) on what day is my wedding? Please send all submissions by owl to my inbox (PM them to me), please ensure to include your member name, house and member number.

| JayMay ♥ Big, yellow duckie <3 Jessica walked inside the classroom, much more confident than in previous papers. She took a seat near the window. No one was around and fresh air would do her good. With cheerful spirits, she pulled the paper towards her.
It was extremely strange and even difficult, but she loved it. With a slight smile, she began to write.
OOC - Will PM the answers to you soon, Professor.

| JayMay ♥ Big, yellow duckie <3 Reaching question no 4, Jessica paused. She didn't know what it meant at all. With a heavy sigh, she skipped it and moved on to the next, much much more easier question. A smile appeared on her face as she moved on to Question no. 6.
"Oh no!" she exclaimed as she accidentaly upset her inkpot on her parchment. It's ruined, she thought wildly. She tried to clear it with her wand, but in vain. With a snort of disbelief, she pulled another parhcment towards her. She wrote MUGGLE STUDIES FINAL On it in bold block letters and started to re-write her answers....

| JayMay ♥ Big, yellow duckie <3 reaching question 4, she decided to skip it like last time. She racked her brains for an answer but all in vain.....![No](https://www.snitchseeker.com/images/smilies/no.gif)
Finally, aware that she was wasting time, she scribble down "Don't Know" in the answer, realizing that it sounded stupid. Not wanting to waste any more time, she moved ahead instantly.
She pondered over question 7 after two extremely easy questions: 5 and 6. Finally, she remembered the answer. Smiling slightly, she bent low over her parchmen and wrote down the answer very neatly.
OOC - Come on all! Post here! Muggle Studies is one of my favourite subjects!

Ali began thinking hard. He wrote everything he could think of. This was a fun way to set the final for a lesson.
OOC: If you dont know i think you can leave them, or guess.

| Alex entered the Muggle Studies Final Classroom with a slightly reckless air. He might not be great at it, but it was “worth a try”, as Jay usually put it. And who cared if he did fail after all? He wasn’t very keen on studies.
He took a seat close by Jessica, struggling with a window latch for some minutes till it finally opened. A jet of cool air swept over him and, with a confident air, he bent slightly over his parchment. |

| JayMay ♥ Big, yellow duckie <3 Jessica looked up and saw Alex enter. Her mouth dropped open. That same boyfriend of hers who never attended a single class? How hated studies to the most possible extent? (Except the dark arts and all sorts of “more mature” subjects, of course) How, for heaven’s sake, was it possible?
Oh well, she thought, it was his choice. She turned her attention towards her paper once more. Question 8 bewildered her a little. History was certainly one of her favourite subjects, but who would disagree that Gandhi was boring to the extreme? Now, I mustn’t be prejudiced, she tried to tell herself, but it was of no use. She pondered over the question for a long, long time. She knew she couldn’t skip it – she had already skipped number 4 and that was enough. Plus, she didn’t want to skip a multiple of 4 now; According to her Arithmancy charts, it would cause a deadly reaction. What if her paper went all messed up? After almost ten minutes’ dire struggle, she remembered something related to the movement. She noted down what she knew hurriedly, first turning it into a fairly interesting question.
The ninth question was comparatively easier. Without any trouble, she attended the next 3 questions, hoping they were right. As far as she knew, they were. The thirteenth and fourteenth were quiet easy too. Beaming, she moved on to the second last question. |

| Alex quickly finished the paper, skipping almost half the questions, and slung his bag over his shoulder.
"That was interesting, Professor," he said before leaving. |

| JayMay ♥ Big, yellow duckie <3 Alex had finished very quickly, Jessica thought, deciding to question him about it all after the paper. She attended the next two questions hurriedly - they weren't that hard - and pondered over the Bonus question. It was, by far, the most challenging. |

Heshasa stared down at her paper. Scanning it she first filled in all of the questions she knew off the top of her head. Coming back to the rest she searched through her mental notebook. Filling in the questions as she went. Once she was done with the bouns question, hoping she got it right ,she handed her paper to Professor Evans.
