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.

Faustus turns invisible and plays pranks on the Pope. If you could turn invisible for a day, what would you seek to change about
Anna11 [10]

If I could turn invisible for a day like Faustus does, I would like to use this power in order to gain more money.

This would happen in the following way. I would go to a bank and take money without anyone seeing me and the next day I would be rich. As I will have taken the money from the bank, like it were legal, no one would notice my fraud. I would choose to pursue more money and not power or fame, because I believe that for a rich person it is easier to pursue power or fame.

lara [203]

"<em>The role of Social Media on the Arab uprisings</em>" is a study that analyzes the level of  influence that the use of Internet and social media served as effective tools for organizing and planning the protests, while providing awareness to the outside world regarding what was really happening during the Arab Spring, a movement that started in late 2010 as a response to oppressive regimes.

The Options that sustain the claim are the following:  

  1. “Networks formed on line were crucial in organizing a core group of activists, specifically in Egypt.”
  2. “Civil society leaders in Arab countries emphasized the role of ‘the Internet, mobile phones, and social media’ in the protests.”
  3. “Additionally, digital media has been used by Arabs to exercise freedom of speech and as a space for civic engagement.”
