Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire: Ch 24-25

Chapter 24 - Rita Skeeter’s Scoop

Q1 - Is Harry stupid or smart for not just taking Cedric’s advice?

Q2 - Why do you think Dumbledore secured a job for Hagrid when he was expelled?

Q3 - Why are the Goblins looking for Barty Crouch

Q4 - Where do you think Barty Crouch is?

• “How about giving me an interview about the Hagrid you know, Harry? The man behind the muscles? Your unlikely friendship and the reasons behind it. Would you call him a father substitute?”

Q5 - Is Hagrid the closest thing to a father that Harry has had?

• Hermione went slightly pink, but Dumbledore smiled at her, and continued, “Hermione, Harry, and Ron still seem to want to know you, judging by the way they were attempting to break down the door.” “Of course we still want to know you!” Harry said, staring at Hagrid.”
• “My own brother, Aberforth, was prosecuted for practicing inappropriate charms on a goat.”

Q6 - What was Aberforth Dumbledore doing?

Chapter 25 - The Egg and the Eye

Q1 - What is the nicest bathroom you’ve ever been in?

• “What d’you do, sneak up here in the evenings to watch the Prefects take baths?
  “Sometimes,” said Myrtle, rather slyly, “but I’ve never come out to speak to anyone before.”

Q2 - How creepy is Myrtle?

• Peeves was not the only thing that was moving. A single dot was flitting around a room in the bottom left-hand corner — Snape's office. But the dot wasn't labeled "Severus Snape"...it was Bartemius Crouch.

Q3 - What was Barty Crouch doing in Snapes office?

Q4 - Before Moody came into the picture, how did you think Harry would escape this?

• “Reckon they were after potion ingredients, eh?” said Moody, “Not hiding anything else in your office, are you?”

Q5 - Do you think Snape is hiding something in his office?

• Snape suddenly did something very strange. He seized his left forearm convulsively with his right hand, as though something on it had hurt him.

Q6 - What is this description?

• “Oh if there’s one thing I hate,” he muttered, more to himself than Harry, his magical eye was fixed on the bottom left hand corner of the map, “It’s a Death Eater who walked free…”

Q7 - Who is at the bottom left-hand corner of the map? 

Q8 - Do you think Moody will catch this person now he has the map?

• Moody winked at him…

Q9 - Was Moody just blinking?

Q10 - Do you think Harry would be a good Auror? Isn’t Moody great for encouraging that in Harry?
