2. The book takes place in a dystopian version of what U.S. city?

From Quiz "Divergent" by Veronica Roth

Answer: Chicago

The book takes place a future where all citizens are divided into five different factions. Each faction is based on a different virtue. They are Abnegation, the selfless; Amity, the peaceful; Candor, the honest; Dauntless, the brave; and Erudite, the intelligent. Everyone chooses the faction they want to be a member of at the Choosing Ceremony when they are sixteen years old.

3. At the Choosing Ceremony, how do the 16-year-olds indicate which faction they choose?

From Quiz "Divergent" - Novel by Veronica Roth

Answer: by spilling their blood on a symbolic substance

While the aptitude test may help someone decide, the choice is ultimately up to the individual. In the Ceremony, each 16-year-old is handed a knife and expected to spill his/her blood on whichever substance represents that particular faction. The substances are "stones for Abnegation, water for Erudite, earth for Amity, lit coals for Dauntless, and glass for Candor".

4. Which faction does our main character, Beatrice, come from?

From Quiz Divergent

Answer: Abnegation

She comes from Abnegation. In Abnegation they devote themselves to the virtue of selflessness.

5. How many factions are there?

From Quiz How Well Do You Know the Book 'Divergent'?

The five factions are Amity, Erudite, Dauntless, Candor and Abnegation. Amity admire peace, Erudite admire intelligence, Dauntless admire bravery, Candor admire honesty and Abnegation admire selflessness.

From Quiz The "Divergent" Trilogy

7. What did Tori, the test administrator, tell Tris when she came out of the simulation that was to choose her faction?

From Quiz "Divergent" and "Insurgent"

Answer: She was Divergent in three factions: Dauntless, Erudite and Abnegation

Being Divergent is supposedly dangerous, because they are immune to simulations, especially when the divergence involves three factions. Tori explained to her that she must not share her test results, especially since she is Divergent.

8. Caleb surprises Beatrice by choosing Erudite when he seems to be 100% Abnegation. What one sign of his intellectual curiosity could have tipped her off?

From Quiz "Divergent" - Novel by Veronica Roth

Answer: the books in his room

Beatrice's brother was always so selfless, even at age four, that she was certain he would stay in their home faction of Abnegation. Stunned by his choice and given no time to absorb it, she nearly chose Abnegation for herself rather than let her parents lose both children to other factions...but she just wasn't selfless enough to do it.

9. In the story, what is Beatrice's result when she takes the test that will show which faction she is made for?

From Quiz Divergent

Answer: Divergent

Divergent is the answer. Two of the people at the test tell Beatrice that it is dangerous for anyone to know that she is Divergent and they put the answer as Abnegation for her safety. And, of course, she was born in Abnegation so, being born there, it wouldn't seem strange that her result was Abnegation.

10. Who is the antagonist in the book?

Answer: Jeanine Matthews

Beatrice's aptitude test is administered by Tori Wu, who is a Dauntless tattoo artist. When Beatrice learns that she is a Divergent, Tori purposely hides the information from those who are in charge. Tori believes that her brother was murdered by the Dauntless for being Divergent, but he is later revealed to have escaped the city and is currently living outside of the walls.

12. What is the symbol for Dauntless faction?

From Quiz "Divergent" and "Insurgent"

16. What faction did Beatrice's brother, Caleb, join?

From Quiz "Divergent" by Veronica Roth

Answer: Erudite

17. What faction did Tris end up choosing?

From Quiz "Divergent" and "Insurgent"

Her father was very upset because she didn't choose Abnegation. Her brother Caleb chose Erudite, much to the anger of Andrew, their father.

The initiates had to jump from the building's roof into a hole in the ground that led to the Dauntless compound. They landed safely in a net at the bottom.

From Quiz "Divergent" - Novel by Veronica Roth

After Tris finished her fear landscape, Eric came to her with a needle, lying to her and telling her that it was a missing tracker that would only be activated when the initiates disappeared, but it was actually the sleepwalking serum. Will, Christina, and other non-Divergent members (including Tori) were sleepwalkers, while Beatrice, Tobias, and most likely, Uriah, were immune to the serum as they were Divergents.

From Quiz "Divergent" - Novel by Veronica Roth
