- A trip to Italy, where you can climb the Leaning Tower of Pisa, view working models of Leonardo da Vinci's airplanes, and experience the beauty of Renaissance art and architecture.
3. Your close friend is being held by Death Eaters in the basement dungeon of the Malfoy mansion. You:
- Brew up a batch of the useful but tricky-to-produce Polyjuice Potion, which will transform you into the spitting image of Bellatrix Lestrange. No one will question you as you lead the prisoners away from the dungeon, knowing that you are Voldemort's most faithful supporter.
- Dig a tunnel underneath the mansion to liberate your friend. It may take you a month, but it is the surest way of entering the dungeon undetected.
- Use your connections at the Ministry of Magic to initiate a surprise raid on the mansion, in the course of which your friend will inevitably be discovered.
- Gather together the D.A. (Dumbledore's Army) and fight your way into the mansion. Though you may face casualties, every member of the D.A. is willing to die fighting against Voldemort and the Death Eaters.

- To just solve the riddles - they're fun.
5. Snape: friend or foe?
- Foe: Snape has always hated Harry, so isn't that obvious?
- Friend: Dumbledore had no doubt in his mind that Snape was loyal, and I trust Dumbledore.
- Foe: Duh! Haven't you read Deathly Hallows?
- Friend: Duh! Haven't you read Deathly Hallows?

- Confidence - look at Howard Hughes.
- Smarts - look at Bill Gates.
- Hard work - look at Rockefeller.

- Take the egg everywhere with you, working constantly to unravel its mysteries, and reach an epiphany while taking a bath.
- You go to the Hogwarts library and search through the literature about the Tournament. Maybe you'll learn what kinds of clues have been given in the past.
- You go into the challenge blind. It can't be that bad.
- You convince Moaning Myrtle to tell you what she found out about the clue from Cedric.
8. Harry's use of Sectumsempra on Draco Malfoy was:
- Unforgivable - slicing into someone's chest just isn't right, no matter how awful that person may be.
- Stupid - who uses a random spell found in the margin of someone else's textbook, when they don't even know what the spell does?
- Horrible, but remember, Malfoy was already aiming a spell, quite possibly the Cruciatus Curse, at Harry.
- Regrettable, but hey, everything's fair in love and war.

- The D.A.'s moonlit ride aback thestrals.

Congratulations! You're a Gryffindor! You can make your way to the Gryffindor table in the Great Hall and sit with Harry, Hermione, Ron, and the rest of the Weasleys, among others. The Sorting Hat has found within you the potential for great bravery in the face of opposition. Your courage may remain hidden, like that of Neville Longbottom, but it will strengthen you in need. But don't rely on your membership in Gryffindor as a guarantee of steadfastness - remember, Peter Pettigrew was Gryffindor, too.
"You might belong in Gryffindor, where dwell the brave at heart, their daring, nerve and chivalry set Gryffindors apart."
Congratulations! You're a Slytherin! Take your seat beside Draco Malfoy, Blaise Zabini, and Gregory Goyle, among others. Your status as a Slytherin testifies to your cunning and determination. The world can expect great (if possibly infamous) things from you. Why, the Dark Lord himself was a Slytherin, and though the wizarding world may loathe him, they recognize his magical prowess.
"Or perhaps in Slytherin, you'll make your real friends, those cunning folk use any means, to achieve their ends."
Congratulations! You're a Ravenclaw! Have a seat in the Great Hall with Cho Chang, Padma Patil, and the Grey Lady, among others. Rowena Ravenclaw was known for her wisdom and wit. Though your intelligence may show itself in odd forms (remember your fellow Luna Lovegood), it's sure to help you in a fix. Gryffindor's bravery may serve well when facing a sword, but it would be well for him to have a Ravenclaw nearby when confronted with a cleverer opponent.
"Or yet in wise old Ravenclaw, if you've a ready mind, where those of wit and learning, will always find their kind."
Congratulations! You're a Hufflepuff! Join the likes of Cedric Digory, Susan Bones, and Hannah Abbot at your Great Hall table. The Sorting Hat has seen true blue in you. Loyal friends and patient toilers, Hufflepuffs can be counted on in all sorts of weather. When Ravenclaw's in trouble, she can count on you to be there on the double. Though Harry competed in the Triwizard Tournament, Cedric was Hogwarts' true champion, ready to prove the honor of that venerable institution.
"You might belong in Hufflepuff, where those are just and loyal, those patient Hufflepuffs are true and unafraid of toil."
