This is an IQ test given to job applicants in China: "Everybody
has to cross the river".
The following rules apply:

1. Only 2 persons on the raft at a time

2. The father can not stay with any of the daughters without their
mother's presence

3. The mother can not stay with any of the sons without their father's
presence

4. The thief (striped shirt) can not stay with any family member if the
Policeman is not there

5. Only the Father, the Mother and the Policeman know how to operate the
raft

6. To start click on the big blue circle on the right. (The adventurous
can
click on one of the other buttons but don't ask for help)

7. To move the people click on them.

8. To move the raft click on the pole on the opposite side of the river.

I eventually managed it through trial and error.

It is an I/Q test but not in the way people think.

My conclusions:

1. There's some horribile child abuse going on in that family. Everytime you leave a parent alone with a child of the opposite gender they get punched. Horrendous.

2. You could easily get two children and a parent on that raft. They're just being over-cautious.

3. The river is so shallow you could easily swim it.

4. The Policeman can come back after taking the crook across - but get this - the crook waits for him! What kind of crook is that? Even if he is a ginger midget.

5. I say the parents should cut their losses and adopt later.

6. Once everyone's across they all salute like Nazis. Not exactly the fucking Von Trapp's are they?
