1. What is the name of the space that you start the game from?

Answer: GO!

GO! is also where you collect $200 as you pass.

2. On what space do you do absolutely nothing?

Answer: Free Parking

Some players use a house rule that allows you to get either a fixed sum or the total of previously paid taxes when you land here. It massively increases the luck factor in the game, which can be good when playing with smaller children but generally makes the game worse and can also further drag out already long rounds.

3. Which of the following is not a space on the Monopoly board in any traditional edition?

Answer: St. Paul's Square

Atlantic Avenue is yellow, Illinois Avenue is red, and Water Works is a utility, all from the standard US game.
