Answer:
Many of the sentences in the passage show that the author is writing from a first-person point of view.
"I was lying on the sofa reading a book".
"I was home alone because my mom had gone to her friend's wedding".
"I had just begun to enjoy the book when there was a loud knock on the front door".
"The sun was blazing over the roof, baking US all like cookies".
"She asked ME to come along"
"I looked up and wondered if it was a robber"
"I put my book away and walked to the door"
Explanation:
The writer is talking about what happened to him on that day.
There's some truth to the idea that alcohol can reduce stress. Alcohol is a sedative and a depressant that affects the central nervous system. At first, drinking can reduce fears and take your mind off of your troubles. It can help you feel less shy, give you a boost in mood, and make you feel generally relaxed.

In "The Hobbit", by J.R.R Tolkien, in the later part of the book (or the third movie), the battle of the four armies, the humans under the leadership of Bard, and the Elvish soldiers under their king teamed up to drive Thorin & Co. into giving them their share of gold. However, as events transpire, the orcs under Bolg(?) invaded the mountains in an effort to defeat the rest of the races, prompting the people of the lake, the elves, and the dwarves to team up in the fight. Before the orcs arrived though, Bilbo was stuck with the dwarves in the mountain, and wishes for his home. To make all sides happy, he decided to steal the "Arkenstone" ( the stone that is precious to Thorin, and 'is his heart'), and give it to the humans and elves as a bargain for their share of gold. However, things do not happened as planned, as Bilbo is banished from the castle, and the orcs arrive, prompting the humans, elves, and dwarves, to fight together, in the battle of the three armies. So no, while Bilbo was able to somewhat stop the war between the dwarves and the humans & elves, he was not able to stop the larger war, the battle of the three forces combine vs the orcs.
