Hans Rosling Quiz

Today we took a quiz on the video we watched yesterday in class. The video was on Hans Roslings theory to how the world is trending, in wealth and life expectancy. Through the four minute video, he touched base on over 200 countries throughout the world, and their growth and development throughout 200 years. In the end of the video, he ultimately said that the worlds wealth and life expectancy is on a trend upwards toward the rich and healthy end of the scale. I watched this video multiple times yesterday, in hopes that it would prepare me for the quiz today, but the quiz was the comprehension worksheet we did along with the video yesterday. Here were the questions and answers on the worksheet yesterday;

1. What is the name of Hans Roslings course; Global Health
2. What does the X-axis measure; Income per person
3. What does the Y-axis represent; Life Expectancy
4. What is Hans' description for the lower left corner; Poor and Sick
5. What does he call the upper right corner; Rich and Healthy
6. What is the stage in which a country would be experiencing a high birth rate and a rapidly falling death rate; Stage 2
7. When was the United States is Stage One; Before the Industrial Revolution
8. Name a country currently in Stage 5; Japan, Russia, Italy
9. What stage includes a stable or slow RNI due to a high birth and death rate; Stage 1
10. The Industrial Revolution began in the late 1700s in this country; Great Britain/England

I think since I knew the material and studied the worksheet last night and earlier today, I got a good grade on this quiz and hopefully it kept my grade to an A average to continue my success here at The John Carroll School so far in my high school career!
