Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

1. What is the name of the inn where Jim Hawkins and his mother live?

Answer: Admiral Benbow

The Admiral Benbow belonged to Jim's father before he died and was inherited by Jim and his mother who operate it. Hogshead and Three Broomsticks are from "Harry Potter" and The Prancing Pony is from "Lord of the Rings".

2. What were the pirates after when they burned down the Admiral Benbow?

Answer: Captain Flint's map

The pirates were after the map. Billy Bones did not have treasure in his chest and why would they kill him if they already poisoned him and sent him the Black Spot? And it is not rum they are after - they burned the inn to the ground after they did not find the map.

3. What job did Long John Silver have aboard the Hispanola?

Answer: Cook

He was the cook. Arrow is the first mate, Jim is the cabin boy, and Red is the helmsman.

4. When they reach Treasure Island, Jim encounters Ben. How did Ben end up on Treasure Island?

Answer: He was marooned by Flint for mutiny

Jim asked Ben how he got on the island. First he asked him whether he lives on the island as a castaway; Ben said no. Jim asked if he fell overboard; Ben said no again. Jim asked if he was shipwrecked; Ben said no, and told Jim that Flint marooned him here after Ben mutinied against the pirates.

5. Who did Jim kill when he boarded the ship?

Answer: Israel Hands

It was Hands. Jim boarded the ship using Ben's boat and cut the mooring lines. Hands killed Red in a drunken brawl and Pew got ran over by a horse and wagon when the pirates attacked the inn. Jim killed Hands after Hands attempted to kill Jim for running the ship aground.

6. When Jim returns to the fort, the pirates send Silver a black spot. What did they use to make it?

Answer: The Bible

They used the Bible. Even pirates are religious, and cutting up a Bible is bad luck. Silver tells George Merry and Dick Johnson they will suffer for what they did. Some good did come out of this - the pirates have the map, so now they can go find the treasure.

7. When the pirates find the treasure, what does Flint use to mark its location?

Answer: Allardyce's body

This is the kind of sick joke Flint is known to do to his men. Flint, after he buried his loot and marooned Ben, killed Allardyce, and used his body to mark the location of the treasure.

8. Who is singing pirate songs to scare the pirates?

Answer: Ben

Ben is trying to trick them into thinking they have been cursed by evil spirits.

9. What did the crew do to the pirates after they loaded the treasure?

Answer: They marooned them

Pirate code states, "If a pirate lags behind or abandons his post they are marooned on an island to die." They left ammo for them along with supplies, but since these are pirates they will die from malaria and scurvy.

10. Where does Long John Silver go at the end of the book?

Answer: He runs off with some of the loot

Silver runs off and is never seen again. The others return to Bristol and divide up what they had managed to carry home.
