Guest Guest Posted October 30, 2003 Share Posted October 30, 2003 Here is a link to a story in our local news. It's part of a test given to immigrants trying to get citizinship in this country. The point of the news story is that many Americans don't know the answers to these questions. I took the test, and for someone who didn't grow up here, I think I did pretty good...I only got one and a half wrong...how well do you know your country? http://wcco.com/content/local_story_300125816.html Quote Link to comment
ozzzyyy Posted October 30, 2003 Share Posted October 30, 2003 I got one and half wrong. It appears I need to know who wrote a famous song? You can bet I won't get that one wrong again!! Quote Link to comment
Guest Guest Posted October 30, 2003 Share Posted October 30, 2003 I didn't know that one either....I actually had no idea! Quote Link to comment
Guest Guest Posted October 30, 2003 Share Posted October 30, 2003 I missed #4 but I got the rest right. I don't see where they tell you what you scored so I just read the answers and figured it out that way. How did you miss 1/2? Quote Link to comment
