5. For Children---What is the name of the organization that Harry, Ron, and Hermione founded in 1995?

An abbreviation of it was "DA", which could also mean Dark Arts. I asked a simple question in this category because "Harry Potter" belongs to "For Children".

All of the incorrect answers were performed by the "Weird Sisters" at the Yule Ball of 1994. The correct answer was performed by Celestina Warbeck, also known as "The Singing Sorceress".
14. People---Who said this? "Longbottom, if brains were gold you'd be poorer than Weasley, and that's saying something".

Although Draco said it, Crabbe and Goyle were right next to him. Greengrass would grow up to marry Draco, and have one kid with him, Scorpius.
15. Religion---Of what religion is the author of the series, J.K. Rowling?

Answer: Christianity

Many librarians and teachers comment that the "Harry Potter" books promote Wicca and despise Christianity. J.K. Rowling, however, has stated in many interviews that she herself is a Christian.
16. Sci/Tech---What did Arthur Weasley mistakenly call "electricity"?

Answer: Eckeltricity

Arthur is a Muggle-lover, and is obsessed with Muggle studies, including electricity. He often asks Harry questions, as he lived with an all-Muggle family for eleven years.
17. Sports---What kind of Muggle-sport did Harry compare to Quidditch, when he was first learning?

Answer: Basketball

He said this at his first practice. Oliver Wood, coming from an all wizard family, replied with "What's basketball?".
18. Television---What is Jim McGuffin's occupation?

Answer: Newsreader

Jim is a Muggle, and is only mentioned once, at the beginning of "Sorcerer's Stone". He is seen as surprised when there is a downpour of shooting stars, rather than the rain he predicted the previous day. He is also shown to have a partner, Ted, who is the weatherman. Also, in the film adaption of "Order of the Phoenix", an unidentified anchor man is seen.

It is possible that this is Jim.
19. Video Games---What kind of video game system did Dudley own?

In 1994, Dudley was put on a diet. However, Dudley continued to sneak junk food while on the diet. This caused Dudley's parents to threaten to throw it out, if they caught him stealing food again.

Answer: He has used all of them

Floo Powder is often called "fireplace travel", where the user drops magically enchanted powder into a fire place, and steps in, saying where they want to go. Apparition is concentrating hard on the desired location, and appearing there. The toilet system is used at the Ministry of Magic, where you flush yourself down a toilet to get into the Ministry's atrium.
