With each part of the quiz we published a photograph (the full set is on the right). The link between them is Barack Obama. The pictures represent three lesser-known things about him, and one better-known.

*The first was that when as a boy his family moved into their new house on the outskirts of Jakarta, he was amazed to find the house had a collection of exotic animals, including a monkey, birds of paradise, a cockatoo and even several baby crocodiles.

*The second is a belief by some amateur genealogists that Obama and Mark Twain are distantly related through Obama's great-great-great-great grandmother, Eliza Jane Clemmons.

*The third is his stated youthful affection for Earth, Wind and Fire; he and friends would drive around in a two-tone VW Kombi van with a cassette of the band blaring out - an indication perhaps of a future affinity with Chicago?

*And the final picture, the better-known thing about Obama, of course, is his Hawaiian birthplace.
