1) Brazil. In both Spain and Argentina (in S America) they speak Spanish. Portuguese is spoken primarily in Brazil.


2) 0 celsius = 32 Fahrenheit.


3) Drachma was a Greek coin. Pesetas were coins in Spain. (Note: both use Euros now.)


4) Warts. turn the word backwards.


5) Wow, this one was tricky. Both Napoleon and Melba had foods named after them. So the answer would be "Poinsettia," since both macadam and poinsettia are objects named after people.


6) Foliage. A person who has money is rich, foliage is leafy.


7) 2 is to 8 as 5 is to 125 (5 cubed), among these choices. Actually, there could be as many answers as you have rules to make them up if only given two numbers, as this example. Follow these:


2 is to 8 as 5 is to 11 (add 6)


2 is to 8 as 5 is to 20 (multiply by 4)


2 is to 8 as 5 is to 23 (multiply by 5, subtract 2)


2 is to 8 as 5 is to 617 (raise to the fourth power, subtract 8)





8) 1789 is to France as 1648 is to England, since the English Revolution was in 1648.


9) A is to E as B is to H


Another one where you could have multiple answers. The rule I used here is "4 letters away." Another pefectly good rule is "next vowel/consonant," which would give you "C" as an answer.
