Once upon a time, in the West Lake village, a servant lived with his master. After service of 30 years, his master became ill and was going to die. One day, the master called his servant and offered him for a wish. It could be any wish but just one. The master gave him one day to think about it. The servant became very happy and went to his mother to discuss the wish. His mother was blind and she asked her son to wish for her eye-sight to come back. Next, the servant went to his wife. She became very excited and asked for a son as they were childless for many years. After that, the servant went to his father who wanted to be rich and so he asked his son to wish for a lot of money. The next day he went to his master and made one wish through which all the three (mother, father, wife) got what they wanted. What was his wish?

 

'Yet' is the name of her dog. The woman walked across the bridge. And 'Yet', she ran!

Ah, clever. tricky is more like it.

-So by childless for many years, the way it is worded I think they had a child many years ago who disappeared. So His wish was for his mom have the ability to find anything, including the child and lots of money.

The guard comes out every 30 minutes to check for people on the bridge. If he sees you, he stops you and asks for your credentials. If you run, he'll kill you.

It takes 60 minutes to cross the bridge. You only have 30 before the guard comes out. How do you make it across?

It may contain you.
You might not be aware of it.

How can you find the exact midpoint in a straight line (or the exact center of a circle)?

How can you establish when something begins and when it ends?

Another: Since things change without respite, how can you say what something is?

 

You have no credentials. You are an escapee, essentially.

Which question are you asking. A line is never ending. A line with two defined end points is a line segment.

To the last two: It's a trick question. Everything in life is subjective.
