    Wow! Your memory is really good! You proved that you’ve got a good grasp on things that happened last year. Do your friends always come to you to ask about what’s happening in the world, because you certainly seem like a person who not only knows a lot, but possesses the ability to retain that knowledge! Now, you can prepare for the 2017 version of this quiz that comes out next year 😉
