Dear Paper Monitor, your Test Paper brought me out in a cold sweat. You have listed six questions (1-6), but you have two answers to question 1 (a regular font 1 and a bold font 1) and the final answer is (apparently) to question 5.

Monitor note: Oh dear. A kind soul on Twitter has pointed out that someone is saying something nasty about on a blog. Should one click on the link to find out?
