Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

1. What is Mrs. Figg's obsession?

Answer: Cats

Mrs. Figg used to be Harry's babysitter when it was Dudley's birthday, and she used to always tell him about her numerous cats. That was why he always hated going there. Later in the series we find out that Mrs. Figg is a squib(a person born in a wizarding family who is not capable of magic), and has contact with the wizarding world.

2. Who is Dudley's friend who joins them on the trip to the zoo?

Answer: Piers

Harry was also joining the Dursleys but they were not too happy taking him. They were forced to take him because no baby-sitter was available and they did not trust him enough to leave him at home alone. He was hoping that if they did leave him alone he could watch T.V. and use the computer without anybody to stop him.

3. What is the name of the mirror in which Harry sees his family?

Answer: Mirror of Erised

The Mirror shows our heart's deepest desires. Ron, who had five brothers to compete against, saw himself as a Quidditch captain and Head boy holding the Quidditch cup.

4. Why did Vernon Dursley have to go to London?

Answer: To get a doctor who could remove Dudley's pig tail

Uncle Vernon also dropped Harry to King's Cross Station, but the real reason he had come to London was to remove the pig's tail. Harry was just fortunate that the train was arriving on the same day.

5. Who told Harry how to get to platform nine and three-quarters?

Answer: Molly Weasley

Mr. Dursley dropped Harry between platforms 9 and 10. He didn't have a clue how to get to platform nine and three-quarters, when he heard Mrs.Weasley say the word 'muggles'. He followed them and she told him how to get onto the platform.

6. Where is the snake in "The Philosopher's/Sorcerer's Stone" from?

Answer: Brazil

This is written on a board next to the snake enclosure and Harry reads it. The snake was actually bred in captivity and had never been to Brazil. Harry finds that the snake can understand him, and this is the first time he uses his gift of talking parseltongue by talking to the snake.

7. Who told Harry that he had been hit by a bludger just two minutes after the game had started in his first quidditch match?

Answer: Oliver

Wood told this to Harry just before the match began, making Harry feel even more nervous than before. He, however, fared much better than Wood in his first match, and won the game for Gryffindor by catching the snitch and earning 150 points.

8. How is Hermione described in the book?

Answer: a girl with bushy brown hair and sticking-out front teeth

Hermione is described like this when she enters the compartment that Harry and Ron are sitting in to search for Neville's missing toad. She wants to shrink her teeth magically but her parents (who are dentists) do not approve of that and want her to wear braces.

9. Who was sorted last in Slytherin house?

Answer: Blaise Zabini

His last name started with the last letter of the alphabet and he was the last of the first-years to be sorted. After that the feast started, and everything else was forgotten as everybody started to eat.

10. What did Fred and George say they would send to Ginny?

Answer: a Hogwarts toilet seat

Mrs. Weasley said that the twins were not to create any trouble like blowing up toilets; they said that they had never thought of it, but it was a good idea. They shouted that they would send Ginny a Hogwarts toilet seat when the train was leaving.
