[Answer] 6. What discovery in the early 1960s was the impetus for unification of the Emirates?

Step 1 : Introduction to the question "6. What discovery in the early 1960s was the impetus for unification of the Emirates?"



...1. Oil 2. Diamonds 3. Gold 4. Plutonium Prior to the discovery of oil, one of the primary exports of the region had been pearls, an industry that had sustained the sheikhs for millennia. The advent of World War I and the development by the Japanese of cultured pearls all but destroyed the industry. Sheikh Zayed bin Sultan Al Nahyan (1918-2004) became the ruler of Abu Dhabi in 1966 and was the driving force behind the unification of the emirates. With oil interests being lost to U.S. companies, the answer to that problem lay in unifying their interests and protecting their own resources from foreign control. The new constitution was put in place in 1971, forming the UAE from the former 'Trucial States.'

[Answer] 3. Branded early on as a novelty instrument it developed such a strong solo identity that it nearly upstaged the trumpet as the primary jazz instrument. What is this tool that was created by Adolphe Sax in 1846 for military bands?

Step 1 : Introduction to the question "3. Branded early on as a novelty instrument it developed such a strong solo identity that it nearly upstaged the trumpet as the primary jazz instrument. What is this tool that was created by Adolphe Sax in 1846 for military bands?"



...1. Saxophone 2. Bassoon 3. Flute 4. Oboe The alto and tenor saxophones almost dominated music in the late 1930's and during the 1940's. Initially this was achieved through the talents of Johnny Hodges and his romantic tones and then through Charlie Parker's bushfire of reshuffled harmonies and uneven phrasing. Big bands would carry as many as five saxophone players. This included two tenors, the most expressive of all jazz instruments, able to produce those earthy, low register sounds but, as best shown by John Coltrane, could be extended to a soprano range. There would also be two altos and a baritone. The saxophone is a very agile instrument and is able to cover both the melodic and harmonic roles within a big band. During the ensemble sections they are best suited to run with the faster passages that would prove extremely tough for the brass section.

[Ans] From the late 1920s until the early 1950s, stop signs were not red, but what color?

Step 1 : Introduction to the question "From the late 1920s until the early 1950s, stop signs were not red, but what color?"



Yes, yellow was the standard color for stop signs for nearly 30 years. In fact, the red stop sign has only been the standard for the last 60 years. Before then, the octagonal traffic sign was yellow, with the word STOP in black letters. It wasn’t until 1954 that the stop sign became the bright red color, adorned with white letters that we now know today. This change also served to distinguish the regulatory stop sign from yellow warning signs, and also made the color consistent with that of red traffic signal indications, which for decades had used red to signal "stop".
