Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

1. What color is Mrs. Talbot's hair?

Answer: Red

Trey was astonished by Mrs. Talbot's beauty--including her fiery red hair.

2. What is Trey's middle name?

Answer: Cromwell

Oliver is Cromwell's first name (British history). Torrence is Trey's last name. William has nothing to do with nothing.

3. What does Mark call the farm truck?

Answer: Ol' Bessie

"I'll never talk bad about this truck again!" Mark declares when Trey is able to drive to the rescue.

4. Finish this quote from Hobart: "Don't do anything..."

Answer: I wouldn't do

Hobart meets Mark and Trey on the road at the beginning of their adventure. He believes Trey to be Mark's cousin.

5. What is the name of the prison guard who helps Mark and Trey?

Answer: Jonas Sabine

Both Jonas Sabine and his son, Jonathan, were executed for their part in the resistance.

6. Who is the prisoner the guard is concerned about?

Answer: Mr. Talbot

Mr. Talbot was taken by the Population Police at the beginning of the book.

7. Fill in the blank in this quote from a Population Police patrolman: "Can't you see he's _____? And he outranks us!"

Answer: Poppo

Trey immediately chewed the guy out for disrespect!

8. What is the name of the Population Police officer who helps Mark slash the tires of the official vehicles?

Answer: Nedley

He's quite a guy! He was a member of the resistance group with Mr. Talbot and Jonas and Jonathan Sabine. He also helped Mark and Trey when they were getting away from the prison. He pretended to be stuck, then Mark pretended to kidnap him. He then took everyone to Hendricks' school!

9. The word "liber" is used as a code word among resistance workers. It is the word "free" translated into what language?

Answer: Latin

This is a tricky question. At first glance, "liber" might seem to be a misspelling of the Spanish word "libre" (free), or a distant cousin of the French "liberte" (liberty). In fact, since all three of the other choices are languages derived from Latin, all the words are related, including English words like "liberty" (freedom) and "liberate" (to free). Also, Portuguese is related to all these languages.

10. How was Mark captured?

Answer: He was zapped by an electric fence around the Grant's property

Luke and the gang were the ones caught trespassing, though technically so was Mark. Mark also did talk to a guy in the line, but he wasn't caught. This question can be disputed, however, because technically when Mark was zapped by the fence, he was also trespassing.
