What occurred in Bombur’s dream?

The adventurers enjoy a large feast in the forest with a woodland king.

Smaug swept down from Lonely Mountain, attacking and killing many of his friends.

Thorin reclaims his lost treasure and shares the wealth equally among the dwarves.

Gandalf is imprisoned by the goblins and is about to be sacrificed to Smaug.

What does Bilbo do that represents a big step toward becoming a true hero?

He stabs a spider in the eyes and distracts the others away.

He guides the dwarves back to the path in Mirkwood.

He captures Gollum and forces him to give information that will help the adventurers retrieve the treasure.

He sets a trap that saves the dwarves from a goblin attack.

After following the light, Bilbo becomes

Enlightened by the Great Wizard in the sky

Bilbo's new attitude after killing the spider can best be described as

Surprised, worried, and confused

Overconfident, smug, and entitled

"Old fat spider spinning in a tree! Old fat spider can't see me! Attercop! Attercop! Won't you stop, stop your spinning and look at me! Who is singing this song and to whom are they singing it?

Bilbo is singing the song to the spiders

the spiders are singing the song to Bilbo

the dwarves are singing the song to the spiders

the elves are singing the song to the dwarves

Which of the following are two NEGATIVE qualities of the elf-king?

He had a weakness for jewels and treasure

The Elven-king is angry with the dwarves because

They won't tell him why they are near his lands or where they are headed

They won't agree to share their gold with him if they defeat Smaug

Bilbo frees the Dwarves by taking advantage of the chief guard

who is asleep after drinking wine

Bilbo’s plan to release his imprisoned friends involves…

Following two guards, who will drink too much and pass out in the cellar. This will leave their keys vulnerable to stealing.

Using his ring to secretly enter the Elvenking’s residence. He will then use his powers of persuasion to convince the Elvenking to release them.

Returning to Beorn’s home, hoping to convince him to visit the Elvenking in lion form. Lions are the animal wo0d-elves fear most.

Digging an escape hole from his friends’ cells to a designated safe spot within the building. Bilbo, due to his small size, is a master of burrowing.

What is the glaring flaw in Bilbo’s escape plan?

He was the last adventurer remaining to be put in a barrel, and nobody could help him into one.

He asked Gandalf not to interfere with their journey.

Somewhere along the way he lost Sting.

Eagles never venture far from their nests, especially to places where wood-elves live.

The wood-elves had stolen his ring.

"He had a FAMISHED and a savage look like a dog that has been chained and forgotten in a kennel for a week." In context, the word FAMISHED is best defined as

The quality of being undernourished, or hungry

The state of feeling uneasy after a stressful situation

Wanting to seek vengeance for a perceived wrongdoing

"Well, are you alive or are you dead? asked Bilbo quite CROSSLY. The author's decision to use the word CROSSLY to describe Bilbo most logically suggests

Bilbo is sincerely curious to know Thorin's answer to the question

Bilbo's question is meant to be interpreted in a literal manner

Bilbo's reaction is uncharacteristic of a hobbit

Generally, how did Lake-town’s people receive the adventurers?

They were enthusiastic, feeding and pampering the adventurers.

They were indifferent; dwarves are nothing special to the people of the town.

They were happy to see them, but socially awkward also. Visitors rarely came to these parts, so the people kept their distance from strangers.

They were furious, believing the adventurers had evil motives; they feared the adventurers would steal the town’s most valued resources.

At the Laketown dinner, Thorin

Announces the return of the King Under the Mountain

plans how he's going to steal the Arkenstone

eats too much, falls asleep, and suffers from amnesia

What complication do the adventurers face upon reaching the mountain’s secret door?

It will not open and has no key hole.

The wood-elves, having learned their secret, beat them to the door.

It is much too small for them to enter.

The map was wrong; there is no secret entrance.

At the beginning of chapter 12, why is Bilbo so frustrated?

Thorin asks him to enter a secret passage first.

Bombur’s negativity is upsetting him.

Balin refuses to help him carry heavy resources

He lost his bag filled with snack cakes.

What is the first item of treasure Bilbo takes?

The Arkenstone, also called the Heart of the Mountain

A sword made of the purest silver, also called the Necromancer

A glowing jewelry box, the contents of which are locked

What new complication arises after the adventurers successfully locate the treasure?

The adventurers realize they do not have a plan to eliminate Smaug.

Thorin will not share the wealth, despite everyone’s help in finding it.

A small troop of goblins reveal themselves from behind a rock wall.

Gandalf returns, announcing that a group of trolls is hot on their trail.

Why do the dwarves suddenly become upset with Bilbo?

He stole treasure, which intensified Smaug’s rage.

He refused to share treasure equally.

He grabbed the wrong piece of treasure.

He bargained with Smaug, allowing Smaug to keep a portion of the treasure.

Which of the following is NOT a reason Bilbo spoke to Smaug in riddles (kennings)?

Dragons are easily confused by riddles.

Bilbo did not want to reveal his true name.

Dragons spend lots of time trying to understand riddles; they are fascinated by riddles.

Bilbo was scared to refuse answering Smaug’s questions

What purpose does the thrush serve?

It is a useful messenger among neighboring towns.

It keeps track of time masterfully.

It is a dwarf’s favorite food and provides them ample energy.

It is infinitely wise and can expose all the mountain’s secrets.

It is a dragon’s biggest ally and reports back to Smaug.

"Quickly, Bilbo trotted to the door and took the torch; but he could not persuade the dwarves to light the other torches or to come and join him yet." Which of the following inferences is the most logical based on this portion of the text?

The dwarves may be driven by both stubbornness and fear, and they are quite willing to let Bilbo perform the more dangerous tasks.

Bilbo, a still-developing character, has not mastered the art of communicating goals clearly or the art of taking forceful command.

Not all of the adventurers are on board with the plan to explore and recover treasure; some of them prefer to cut their losses and return to the comforts of home.

The dwarves have strong confidence in Bilbo's ability to safely leave the tunnel and return unscathed; by watching, they can study his technique and learn from BIlbo.

What is the Arkenstone, also known as the Heart of the Mountain?

A golden crown passed down among generations of Thorin’s ancestors.

An impenetrable shield once used during the goblin wars.

The largest known diamond of Middle Earth.

A silver chalice used for drinking wine.

What does Bilbo do with the Arkenstone?

Drops it, causing it to shatter.

Uses it like a flashlight to guide him through tunnels.

Gives it to Beorn as a thank-you for being a kind host.
