A good quiz question is one that gives you clues through which you can figure out the answer, even if you don't know the answer immediately. A trivia question is certainly NOT a good quiz question.
The answer is "Swan": 1. The "Swan" was the first thing to be origamied 2. The ill-fated "Swan" could not fly and so it died, and was cremated at this site 3. The institute of "Swan" design where the ill-fated "Swan" was designed
Sorry, but couldn't come up with a better answer :P
The connect is atomic bombing of Hiroshima. A number of bomb survivors later suffered from leukemia. The memorial in the second picture is in honor of the victims of radiation effects in Hiroshima peace park. The third picture is the iconic Atomic bomb dome in Hiroshima before the war.
There is a belief in Japan that anyone who makes a 1000 paper cranes can have his/her dreams come true. A little girl named Sadako Sasaki (A-bomb survivor) tried to make 1000 paper cranes and wished to live longer. Her story became a legend and every year Japanese children make paper cranes and dedicate it to her at this memorial.
