this question is on article i posted in economic sablah named (filter of the mind).

her the qeustion .
a boy with his father were driving the car on the highway.they had an accdient The boy died in the that accdinet and his father remain alive a man passsing by took him (the boy) to the hospital.the Dr saw the boy and said oh this is my son.

the Qeustion is how
The Dr when he saw the boy said oh this is my son.

let us see how ur filter of the minds work on this question?

Possibilities - Either of one could be his step-father

So your saying the father is a Doctor.

or

The Doc is a priest (which also called fathers) and anyone who they teached or know (youngsters) they would call them son. (this is based on that the priest became or was a Doctor)

The father is a grandfather and the father of the Dr

The Dr is the son of the father and the father of the boy.

the boy is the son of the Dr, the grandson of the farhter( grand father) :duh:

some people call their grand father father ..so i based my answer on that.

by the way, if a passing man took the boy to the hospital, what happened to the father?

hmm.... re-think.. okkk...

its a dream :rolleyes:

loooooooooool i like ur answer DD and jamila the father is not dead but how the dr said oh it is my son .

let us see what other member say...and let me give u a clue the secret in answering the question is in the way we look to the story.mainly the way ur filter of the mind work and u will just say oh how could this not pass in my mind.:color:

His father .. here is the line the tricky line HIS FATHER ..
The boy died
Again His FATHER
Man Passing by took the boy
OK the boy is the son of the Dr, the grandson of the fathergrand father
Unless your question is not put correctly !

either becuase the DR iS the FAther .....

or becuase the passer took the father so the dr is the father of that Father .....

if this is wrong dont post the answer !!plz!! someone has to get it her e!!!!

First of all what type of filter we should use, high pass filter or low pass filter :D

Ok the answer is simple when the Dr said that, he means that he see the boy as his own child, and it's normal for other fathers to see other kids as their kids.

hahahhahahhah what a cute comments ice tea i love it..u know what i guess u should use high filter :D

and for the rest the question is correcte but the problem is with ur filter may be need some grezzz :D .

the answer for this question is so easy and i guess some one will get it soon...so easy come on guyssssssss switch ur brain on :p

i wanna see other member to participate in here to see what type of filter they have ..what do think ice tea ;)

you said its a dr .. so it could be a female ..

the Dr is the mother of the boy.

wow what smart girl AP that is right....and her comes our filte of the mind...we grew up and think always that the dr is male but could be femal as well....congratualtion AP 10 out 10 ;)

heheh I am not very smart .. its just that I read those kind of questions before and I knew that I shouldnt limit the answer to males only.

oooh AP bet me to answer this..........i knew this one.................it was his mommy.........

Intresting, Man of Principle ... how you have described to us 'filter of the mind'... this example has explained it very well!

thank you seham and for u scottish gal hard luck and u should be happy with ur filter that u knew the answer :D

Any more filters, coz I haven't filter my mind for quite time now.

LoL, it's funny when the answer is that simple and we tend to go round and round trying to sound smart.

I specially liked IceTea's reply :gap:

mashallah well done AP...:D...

soo i guess she is a tough Mom to just say that ....:p ...hmm though i always had an impression the mom was dead..:lost: anyway..good one..:)

Let us see another quiz based on filter of the mind:
"If you were in a marathon and then you have managed to pass the runner in second place. What is your position now?"

After the the runner he passed.

Second place.

Ice Tea, your answer wasn't clear,
'After the runner he passed' would be third place wouldn't it?!! If you had said 'infront' of the runner he passed.. I may have given you 1/2 the credit!

Wanderer,
Well done, you've got it! You have good filter of the mind! When I was asked I said 'first place'!!

yah, am like seham. The first thought was first place :)

Reminds me of the "trick" question (best done verbally), but we'll rely on our Sabla honesty - do this in your head:

Bus driver leaves the depot with an empty bus.

First stop 10 passengers get on.

Next stop 2 get on and 3 get off.

Next stop 5 get on.

Next stop 6 get on and 2 get off.

Next stop 3 get off.

Drives 20 minutes more.

Next stop 2 get on.










Ok then,


without cheeting ...

Ready ?

Ok

i said 6 :D

i was calculating the passengers :confused:

>>> 6
(but I have this gut feeling it will be wrong!! I keep on wondering when you say next stop 2 (I wonder if it is like the number of the stop rather than the people getting on!)

yes I was counting the passenger ..
so my answer would be a guess ..
5?

Seven?!!:lost:

umm.....0? :duh:

Most people focus on the passenger count, not the number of bus stops :)

In this case, we collect and manipulate the wrong data - assuming that it will be important, and overlook/dismiss other data (the number of stops).

A filter of sorts.

You are right that is what I did in my mind before you asked the question!

any more filter tests??

I like them!
