6. You have been shipwrecked alone on a remote island. What is your first reaction?

You head for some shady trees immediately, worried that you might get freckles.
Sheer panic. You force yourself to take long, deep breaths to calm down, before starting to explore the island with great trepidation.
You begin gathering wood immediately to make a fire to signal for help.
Hurrah! You've always dreamed of facing a challenge like this. You can't wait to put your survival skills to the test!
You build a shelter and feel very proud of it — until it collapses on you in the middle of the night!
You set a trap to catch a bird or animal for your supper.
You feast on some blackberries which you've spotted growing on a nearby bramble bush. They will quench your thirst while you think what to do next.
You stamp your foot in a rage and shout, "Why me?!"
You say to yourself, "What would Robinson Crusoe have done?"

9. At midnight, you look out of your bedroom window and see a light flashing from the tower of a ruined castle. What do you do?

Slip out to investigate, taking a torch and a length of rope with you.
Shiver with fear and hide beneath your bedclothes.
Jot down the date and time, and the number and sequence of the flashes, in your notebook.
Feel thrilled, wondering if it might be smugglers.
Convince yourself that you are just imagining things, and go back to sleep.
Try to work out what the flashes mean — they could be some sort of secret code.
Chuckle to yourself. It was you who arranged for a friend to flash the light in order to play a trick on someone, and everything seems to be going according to plan.
Shudder and draw the curtains — that place is haunted as sure as eggs are eggs!
Go back to bed. You only got up to open the window, and nothing short of an earthquake will persuade you to sacrifice another minute of your beauty sleep.
Race outside at once, scale the walls of the castle in a trice and peep through one of the slit windows to see what is going on.
Telephone the police and report what you have seen.
Think nothing of it. If someone wants to flash a light from a tower late at night, then let them. It's no concern of yours.
