6. the match.
7. Is it white, because the house is in the North Pole - with the walls all pointing south.
8. 2 apples
9. It was Noah, not Moses

The answers are obviously known,
When listed they make people groan,
I have seen these before,
And I possibly call for,
Uncle Guido to break your leg bone.

True.

On many a course I've been sent
When my work ethic is horribly bent
It's the same old quiz
Questions lacking that fizz
But at least with this poem I can vent

I assume I got them all right then?
