Why do you think JRR Tolkien made Bard kill Smaug. But not biblo or thorin 5 to 7 senteces
or in easier words Why do you think JRR Tolkien made Bard kill Smaug, and not Thorin or Bilbo?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The thrushes were allies of the people of Dale and the dwarves of the mountain since olden times. The thrush overhears what Bilbo has to say about his trip in to meet Smaug, including the location of the dragon's weak point. Having heard this, the bird decides (apparently based on a sarcastic suggestion made by Bilbo) to fly down to Esgaroth and to alert Bard to the location of the wyrm's weak spot.

From "Inside Information":

But the hobbit was worried and uncomfortable, and they had difficulty in getting anything out of him. On thinking things over he was now regretting some of the things he had said to the dragon, and was not eager to repeat them. The old thrush was sitting on a rock near by with his head cocked on one side, listening to all that was said. It shows what an ill temper Bilbo was in: he picked up a stone and threw it at the thrush, which merely fluttered aside and came back.

What important life experiences does the boy have as Blake depicts them in "The Little Boy Lost" and "The Little Boy Found"? How might these experiences affect the boy and shape his values?

Answers

Answer:

The boy has chased after something unreal, leaving behind the reality and solidity of human relationships (the only really real things), and so he ends up lost, emotionally and spiritually. Pursuing something unreal instead of something real and getting lost, could be an allegory for the spiritual life gone wrong, whether we have chased after riches or power or luxury.

Blake was sharply aware of reality: in real life once a person is “lost” (whether to drugs or drink or other cravings and unrealities) then they often stay lost and never recover. But these poems are from his Songs of Innocence, which, to some extent, portray his ideals, his deepest spiritual convictions. So here, in the companion poem, “The Little Boy Found”, the boy does not stay lost: he is rescued by God who appears in the form of his father. Complex theological (religious) ideas are at work here. Blake did not believe that God was some great giant or superhuman old man up in the sky.

THE VOYAGES OF DOCTOR DOLITTLE
By Hugh Lofting

Chapter 1: The Cobbler's Son

My name was Tommy Stubbins, son of Jacob Stubbins, the cobbler of Puddleby-on-the-Marsh; and I was nine and a half years old. At that time Puddleby was only quite a small town. A river ran through the middle of it; and over this river there was a very old stone bridge, called Kingsbridge, which led you from the market-place on one side to the churchyard on the other.

Sailing-ships came up this river from the sea and anchored near the bridge. I used to go down and watch the sailors unloading the ships upon the river-wall. The sailors sang strange songs as they pulled upon the ropes; and I learned these songs by heart. And I would sit on the river-wall with my feet dangling over the water and sing with the men, pretending to myself that I too was a sailor.

For I longed always to sail away with those brave ships when they turned their backs on Puddleby Church and went creeping down the river again, across the wide lonely marshes to the sea. I longed to go with them out into the world to seek my fortune in foreign lands—Africa, India, China and Peru! When they got round the bend in the river and the water was hidden from view, you could still see their huge brown sails towering over the roofs of the town, moving onward slowly—like some gentle giants that walked among the houses without noise. What strange things would they have seen, I wondered, when next they came back to anchor at Kingsbridge! And, dreaming of the lands I had never seen, I'd sit on there, watching till they were out of sight.

The lamprey has the ability to latch on and ultimately weaken its prey.
The reason the lamprey is successful is because of its ability to latch on to prey.
The lamprey is successful because it can latch on to and weaken its prey.
The lamprey actually latches on to its victims, specifically sucking the life out of them.

Answers

Answer:

The lamprey has the ability to latch on and ultimately weaken its prey.

Explanation:

A concise statement is one that is not too wordy but is rather straightforward and retains the original meaning intended by the author. When sentences are too wordy, the real meaning being conveyed could be lost.

Concise statements are expressed in as few words are possible so as to retain the interest of the reader. This will also prevent the reader from skipping around in order to get the main point. With these in mind, the first option is the most concise statement.

Person above me is correct, I took the test.

What are both lincoln's gettysburg address and king's noble prize acceptance speech asking of their audiance

Answers

Answer:

Both speeches ask people not to give up fighting for what they believe.

Explanation:

Lincoln's speech at Gettysburg and Martin Luther King's speech on winning the Nobel Prize are very impressive speeches and one of the most important ones ever recited, due to the situations they addressed. Lincoln's speech referred to the end of the American civil war and how the victory for the union of the country was important, but this victory was only possible because people did not give up defending what they believed in, which was the union of the country and the care with the territory.

King, on the other hand, reinforced the fight for civil rights in his speech, in addition to highlighting other struggles that have been established around the world and have promoted improvements to social groups that have not given up on conquering and defending what they believe.

Hello. You did not report the article to which this question refers. For this reason, it is not possible for your question to be answered. However, I will try to help you in the best possible way, explaining how to find the answer.

It is only possible to answer your question by reading the article.

Evidences are sentences that present information capable of proving and justifying the information presented in an argument.

These evidences can be examples or facts that present the impossibility of excluding social media from the life of the modern human being.
