QUESTION:
The year 2001 is what animal year in Chinese astrology?

a) Horse (pronounced "Ma" in Chinese)
b) Snake ("She")
c) Sheep ("Yang")
d) Tiger ("Lao hu")
e) Moose ("Mo-o-se")

ANSWERS:
a) Yo Ma, we have a wrong answer here. (or was it yo, yo Ma?)

b) Yes, it is the snake! Reminders to the superstitious: In China, if it is your year, you should wear red at all times ("Your Year" appears every 12 years). One red scarf, necklace or bracelet will do. Also, don't marry in your year or you will have bad luck. People born in the year of the snake are said to be frugal, cautious and protective. Have a good year of the frugal snake!

c) If you chose this answer you must be a Yang Gui Zi (inappropriate word for a "foreigner"). Try again.

d) Cats are cool but go back to school.

e) No, sorry.
