“Even though you did amazing, I hope you learned something new” how? If scoring top marks? I mean I did learn that the colours were annoying, and that there should have been a consistent theme with antonyms/synonyms?

The inconsistency of synonym/antonym was an integral part of the challenge ;)

Agreed, although changing the colours perhaps forces one to read the question rather than whizz through making assumptions, which is a useful thing to learn :)

Some of those might fool native English speakers. Some of the words do have other meanings than those given, but of the choices, only one is correct.

I got 19/20, but that's only because I failed to read that there were also antonyms.. Riveting is the one I got wrong. And I was furious at first because there was no synonym for it. I thought they screwed up so I just picked what I thought they meant.
