Distance From Village 1 to Village 2 = 35 km; Distance between Village 2 and 3 is 25 km and between Village 3 and 4 is 15 km.
Explanation: Let the Villages be V1, V2, V3 and V4, and the distance between then be a, b, and c. (i.e., V1 to V2 is ‘a’ km, V2 to V3 is b ad V3 to V4 is c.)
Then we have:1. The third village is 60km away from the first village => a + b = 60
2. The fourth is 40 km away from the second => b + c = 40
3. The third is 10 km near to the fourth that it is to the second => c = b – 10Solving 1, 2 & 3, we get a = 35, b = 25 and c = 15.

As you said, you “ran through a stop sign”. No traffic law contains anything against people running (on foot), irrespective of whether there’s a stop signal or not.

“… wife was watching television .. She thought that it is her husband Jacob but she found the burglar who attacked her instantly … she killed the burglar immediately with the knife.”
……
So, we have: someone ‘attacks instantly‘ and the attacked person defends with a knife. That’s possible only if the victim (of the attack) had the knife in her possession when she was attacked. And she was “watching television” and opened the door “thinking that it was her husband”! How many people watches TV with knife in hand? And How many of them would open the door for her husband, with knife still in hand? If she had opened the door with knife in hand thinking that the person who arrived was her husband, it implies that she had planned to kill her husband on arrival.

“two fathers took their son” seems an anomaly…!
Yet, the question it doesn’t rule out the (only) possibility that the two fathers themselves form a father – son duo, and the ‘son’ among the two was the father of the other ‘son’ in the group, thus completing the ‘grand father – son – grand son‘ combo – a total of THREE persons, each having caught ONE fish each.

Assuming that “straight Line” refers to the position in which the hands point at opposite directions (as in the 6 O’ clock position):
Starting from the 12:32 (+30 sec) position, there will be 11 possible positions (1:38 (approx.), 2:43 (approx.) and so on) before next 12 O’ clock. Repeating the same pattern over the next 12 – Hour period of the day, we will have 22 straight-line positions.

The ‘expected’ answer seems to be ‘MOSQUITO‘, but that’s a faulty one, because a mosquito can be killed before biting you also.
