  • 1. Suure Prantsuse Revolutsiooni Eelõhtul 1789. A. Üritas Kuningas
    1. Suure Prantsuse Revolutsiooni eelõhtul 1789. a. üritas kuningas Louis XVI hoida sündmusi ohjes ja selleks, et ära hoida Assamblee koosolekuid, andis kuningas korralduse sulgeda Salle des Etats (ruum, kus Assamblee koosolekuid pidas), tuues ettekäändeks, et puuseppadel on saal tarvis ette valmistada kahe päeva pärast toimuvaks kuninga esinemiseks. Kuna ka ilm ei lubanud Assambleel õues koosolekut korraldada, siirdati Assamblee koosolek samas majas asunud ruumi, kus Assamblee liikmed andsid vande (20. juuni 1789), mille kohaselt nad lubasid mitte laiali minna enne, kui Prantsuse konstitutsioon on vastu võetud. Kuidas seda vannet nimetati (sai nime koosolekuruumi järgi)? 2. Küsitav mängija on üsna tuntud oma reketiloopimiste poolest, kuid võistluskeelu sai ta dopingu (sibutramiini) tarvitamise eest ja seda tagantjärele. Mängija ütles vabanduseks, et oli kasutanud kõhnumispreparaati Acai Berry Thin. Võistluskeelu kohaselt peab ta perioodil 16. oktoobrist 2012 kuni 15. aprillini 2013 teenitud auhinnaraha tagastama. Kes? 3. See Kanada mängija olevat loobunud tipptennisest (kõrgeim koht 38) internetikiusamise tõttu, kuna teda olevat seal pidevalt mõnitatud. Küsitava mängija perekonnanimi sisaldub ühe Euroopa riigi nimes. Kes? 4. Kuidas nimetatakse lühendatult ITF poolt loodud rahvusvahelist mängijate võistlustest osavõtu registreerimise süsteemi ja iga mängija personaalset koodi? 5. Alates 2006.a. on Suure slämmi turniiridel meeste üksikmängu võitnud vaid 5 meest N.Djokovic, R.Nadal, R.Federer ja A.Murray. Kes on viies mees? 6. Pildil on tuntud itaalia filminäitleja, kes on mänginud paljudes filmides, peaasjalikult prantsuse omades, sest näitleja valdab lisaks emakeelele vabalt ka inglise ja prantsuse keelt ja on abielus prantslasega. Oma nimekirjas „25 kõige seksikamat naisrolli kinos“ valis ajakiri „Empire“ ta 21. kohale Persephone rolli eest Matrixi seerias. Küsime aga näitlejaga sama perekonnanime kandvat vasakukäelist tennisisti, oma maa esireketit, kes 2011.a.
