15. • The Scream is a famous painting made by Edvard Munch, and
is currently kept at the Munch Museum at Oslo, Norway.
• The quality of paint that Munch used to make the painting is
not very good. The sample of cadmium yellow paint he chose
was impure and thus, it flakes off when exposed to moisture.
• Normally, the painting would be fine as it is kept at a relatively
low humidity, but as of recent years, it has started to fade.
• There is a very mundane reason for this, and it happens all
the time.

young man adopted by a wealthy family.

teacher gave him a nickname because she was a huge fan
of the show. Alex loved the name and even made it his
stage name when he became a recording artist.
• What show, and how do we know Alex O'Connor better?
28. 8.
• Given below is a summary of the short story ‘The Birthmark’
written by Nathaniel Hawthorn.
• Aylmer is a brilliant and recognized philosopher and scientist who
drops his focus from his career and experiments to marry the
beautiful Georgiana (who is physically perfect except for a small red
birthmark in the shape of a hand on her cheek). He becomes
obsessed with removing the birthmark and tries to discover a
potion to remove the same, and eventually finds one and gives it to
his wife. However, as the birthmark fades, Georgiana dies.
• This story, particularly Aylmer’s lament after his wife dies, inspired X
to make one of the best works of his life, Y.

32. 9.
• In the movie Jojo Rabbit, the blind admiration of the
brainwashed Germans towards Hitler is shown through
archived photos, footage and a poster of Hitler in a ten year
old boy’s bedroom.

Nazis literally worshipping Hitler, and Y, which was a
phenomenon associated with X.
• Tell me what is X, and thus Y.
35. 10.
• In 2016, the company X announced a licensing scheme called Y World,
which they said would let other video-makers use Y and assets such as
their graphics and music.
• But the plan was negatively received because many people, even famous
ones like Elles Degeneres, already made similar content, and used Y
regularly.
• A lot of channels thought that X was being greedy and trying to take a cut
off their pay.
• X, during the backlash, lost more than 170,000 subscribers in a couple of
days.
• Critics of the X expressed concern that they may use the trademarks to
stifle competition. Even BBC commented on the issue.
38. 11.
• This book was written when its author was under the influence of
medically influenced cocaine (and later developed an affection for
it).

himself using a certain drug. However, he gets into trouble because
of the influence of the drug and eventually commits suicide.

41. • A farm just outside Moscow started using X on cows to
increase the quality and quantity of milk production.

impact the milk produced.

revealed that it did decrease anxiety and improved the mood
of the herd.
• People started comparing this to the movie Y as the cows are
kept happy, and oblivious to reality.
12.
44. 13.
• The genius of this piece is its representation of a
picture of adult situations within childlike settings. It
tells the story of Cry Baby feeling like she’s nothing
more than a friend to someone who seems to care very
little about her, even though they get together quite
often.
• This makes the protagonist of the piece call herself a X,
because she believes that is all she is to her ‘friend’.
• What’s X?
47. 14.
• The reason for picking X here instead of his contemporaries is
primarily because X here is used as a symbol for his political
presence rather than his exceptional skills in his own field.
• X is arguably the most important figure of the surrealist movement
in the early 20th century; although the movement is typically
associated with France, X was Spanish, and spent a significant
portion of his life living in Spain. X’s surrealist work has made him a
symbol for revolution, which was the primary reason for choosing
him here.
• Also, X’s iconic facial features made him an easy choice.
• Who’s X, and what choice is being talked about?
50. 15.

chawl, where the protagonist (who shares his name

the characters are ignored and replaced with less
frowned upon ones.
• What book?

of Waddesdon, in Buckinghamshire, England. It is one of
the National Trust's most visited properties, with over
466,000 visitors in 2018, and has even been called

Lord or Prince.
• It was adopted by the English language in 1861. It was used to
refer to Abraham Lincoln in the diary of his secretary. During
that time, it meant an ‘important or dominant person’.
• However, post-WW1, the word was used to referred to people
who were wealthy and skilled experts in a certain field of work.
• Easiest way to guess the word, is that it would have a similar
pronunciation to this portmanteau:
(1st word in the name of a martial art) + (Informal Japanese
honorific for a younger male)
17.
62. 18.
• In this Collegehumor parody of X, Y stomps and kills a
certain character, to the shock of the rest of the
