Critical thinking throws light on goals, examines assumptions, observes hidden values, evaluates evidence, accomplishes actions and conclusions. It can occur whenever we judge, decide or solve a problem; IN GENERAL, whenever we must figure out what to believe or what to do and do so in a reasonable way. SO WHY NOT TRY???

Now it's time for Brain Challenge




1) A man went on a trip with a fox, a goose, and a sack of corn. He came upon a stream which he had to cross and found a tiny boat to use to cross the stream. He could only take himself and one other - the fox, the goose, or the corn - at a time. He could not leave the fox alone with the goose or the goose alone with the corn. How does he get all safely over the stream?


2) After teaching his class all about roman numerals (X = 10, IX=9 and so on) the teacher asked his class to draw a single continuous line and turn IX into 6. The only stipulation the teacher made was that the pen could not be lifted from the paper until the line was complete.

  2. Gizem'cim, thanks. your answer is correct. You have won two big kisses from me as a prize! But I think I have to apologize... I'm not as clever as you are; I cannot answer your riddle. Terribly sorry. Why don't you check Neziha's answer? May be, she has got the right answer. Who knows?
