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.

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.

Choose the correct standard usage for this sentence: “The town is fifteen miles _____.”
skad [1K]
Farther. Further is metaphorical, using "farther" in this case because <span>“farther” has the word “far” in it, and “far” obviously relates to physical distance. Therefore the town is fifteen minutes farther up the road </span>
