Introduction
The following 100 quizzes are in the format No - Question - Answer and each
contains 100 questions for a total of 10000. There are 50 questions per page and the
document should print out correctly but I recommend print preview first.
I have been writing quizzes for different purposes for years now but these came about
because of my beginning to use Paltalk. Paltalk is an free internet chat program and
service that supports text voice and web cam chats and had many different rooms
(including adult and children’s) available. I use several of the Adult quiz room
regularly.
If you are interested in Paltalk you can download the appropriate software at
together with further information.
As I began to use the quiz rooms I was asked to read (instead of just answering) and I
agreed. Since I personally don’t like quizzes I have heard before I made a decision
not to repeat a quiz (or a question) but to write new ones on each occasion. A few
hundred soon became a few thousand until it had reached the 10000 you have here.
My questions have attracted a small amount of praise for being all general knowledge
but not country specific and a friend suggested that if they were available she would
buy them because they were better than the books she normally purchased.
Remember a hard question is one you don’t know the answer to, and an easy question
is one that you do.
All of these quizzes were written as general knowledge quizzes for Paltalk and have
been read once (by me) on that medium
I hope you find them useful and enjoyable (and send me some money <s>) but at least
have fun.
