Let's have no more argument. I have chosen Mr. Baggins and that ought to be enough for all of you. If I say he is a Burglar, a B

urglar he is, or will be when the time comes. There is a lot more in him than you guess, and a deal more than he has any idea of himself. You may (possibly) all live to thank me yet." Which best describes how Gandalf's point of view differs from Thorin's?
Gandalf believes that Bilbo has a hidden strength within him that will prove vital to the dwarves' quest, while Thorin believes that Bilbo will be useless and a burden.


Gandalf knows that Bilbo isn't much of a burglar but knows how important this quest will be for Bilbo. Thorin knows Gandalf's intentions and isn't happy about them.


Gandalf and Thorin both believe that Bilbo will be an important addition to the quest.


Gandalf believes that Bilbo is a master burglar, while Thorin is doubtful of Bilbo's skills but willing to give Bilbo a chance

Answer:

Gandalf believes that Bilbo has a hidden strength within him that will prove vital to the dwarves' quest, while Thorin believes that Bilbo will be useless and a burden.

Explanation:

"The Hobbit" by J R R Tolkien is a fantasy story about the journey of a group of dwarves along with a hobbit and a wizard, on a quest to overcome the evil that has overtaken their land.

When Bilbo Baggins was selected by the wizard Gandalf the Grey, the leader and heir to the dwarves' kingdom, Thorin of Oakenshield at first questioned the involvement of Bilbo. He doesn't seem like a fighter or even a strong one, let alone a burglar. But Gandalf insisted on his choice to include Bilbo, saying that he had a lot more in him than is visible now. The differing opinions of Gandalf and Thorin about the hobbit shows that Gandalf knows Bilbo had a hidden strength that will be seen at the right time while Thorin questions the inclusion of this weakling on a quest to defeat a dragon.

<em>Notice that Euchner uses present-tense verbs in his account.  </em>

<em>     1. In what verb tense is historical text usually written?</em>

  • <em>In both past and present. It is necessary to use the present tense to discuss the actions and ideas that are present in the text. For example, “Edgar Allan Poe in his Method of Composition explains all the steps he generally follows to write short stories”. In this example it is stated that despite Edgar Allan Poe is dead his ideas are present in his Method of Composition.  </em>
  • <em>We use the past tense when writing about specific historical events. For example, “Winston Churchill said that Germany was dangerously building his armies again.”  </em>

<em>     2. What effect does using present-tense verbs create?  </em>

  • <em>The effect it has, is related to the fact that despite the writer is dead or alive, his or her ideas continue to be present. Literature is a present observable fact.</em>

Alina [70]

When Collier uses the metaphor in paragraph 4, what she means is:

D. being poor limited their opportunities in life.

  • "Marigolds" is a short story by author Eugenia W. Collier (born in Baltimore in 1928). The narrator is Lizabeth, and the story is set during the Great Depression.
  • The<u> fourth paragraph</u> of the story provides a sad description of Lizabeth's reality growing up during the Depression. She talks about her poor neighborhood and how poverty was like a cage for them.
  • The narrator uses that metaphor to summarize what she said previously in the paragraph. Being poor meant not only being hungry, but also being culturally deprived.
  • She and the other children had no access to information, <u>did not understand </u>the reason of the extent of their poverty.
  • Without proper food, education, and opportunities, they were condemned to remain poor.
  • In conclusion, letter D is the best option to explain the metaphor, since poverty meant deprivation of opportunities for Lizabeth and the others.
