I think googling is acceptable (as long as it is officially allowed) if you already have a pretty good clue.
For example, I knew that painter and one of the pictures in Rambuchan's 10). I know enough about 20th centruy art to write an abstract about styles involved - but, I haven't seen pic 2 so far. In such a case, I consider it legitime to search for a large image of the other pic.
And, film and book titles are problematic for non-native speakers. No problem with 'Love in the times of Cholera', of course; but I'm lost with the 'Red Lantern'. Didn't check so far, but I think I've seen it - under the German title.
I fully agree that it isn't that interesting to google/wiki whatever for a question where you have absolutely no idea. Wiki easily provides the full answer for the 'Monkey' question; but that is nothing I'll submit; I have indeed never heard if that one before .
