Which country is known for its tradition of breaking plates at weddings?
- Canada
- United States
- Greece
- Australia
The sound of a plate smashing, shattering as it meets the floor, is distinctive and tends to turn heads in a restaurant. Most of us think, "Oh No! An unfortunate accident has occurred." But when plates shatter on the floor at a gathering of Greeks — whether it is at a taverna, a wedding, a baptism, or an intimate party, smashing those plates is no accident. The Greek custom of breaking plates became well-known and normalized to people outside Greece following the debut of the 1960 film "Never On Sunday." There is a scene that shows the main characters in a raucous moment of really having a good time as glasses drop and smash on the floor during a dance.

Which food is often thrown over the bride and groom at weddings?
- Rice
- Apples
- Cherries

The tradition of showering newlyweds with rice, seeds, and grains predates Christianity. The Celts, mighty warriors, were also an agronomist culture who tossed rice, millet, and other grains to appease spirits and ask for blessing and fertility for the couple. The rice toss is a symbolic wish to the just-married couple for a life of prosperity and fruitfulness, which to the ancients meant many children. As a blessing, guests shower the couple with rice as they exit the ceremony.

Which word can come after baby, bridal, and meteor?
- Presence
- Shower
- Water
- Party
A baby shower is a party of gift-giving or a ceremony that has different names in different cultures. It celebrates the delivery or expected birth of a child or the transformation of a woman into a mother. The term shower is often assumed to mean that the expectant mother is "showered" with gifts. A related custom, called a bridal shower, may have derived its name from the custom in the 19th century for the presents to be put inside a parasol, which when opened would "shower" the bride-to-be with gifts. Alternatively, the term possibly denotes a "first showing" of the new baby to the wider family and circle of friends, although the baby shower is usually held before the birth of the baby. A meteor shower is a celestial event in which a number of meteors are observed to radiate or originate, from one point in the night sky.

- Bob Dylan

The couple’s weeklong “bed-ins” (1969) in Amsterdam and Montreal, in which they made their hotel bedroom open to the press to promote world peace, allowed Ono an unprecedented platform to express herself. On the other hand, when the Beatles disbanded in 1970, she was widely vilified as the supposed instigator of the split.
