<em>Which detail from the hobbit develops the theme of blind greed?</em>

<em>The correct answer is d: the dwarves are so worried the elves will steal their treasure that they lie about their journey through Mirkwood.</em>

  • <em>It is believed in the story that Smaug cursed the dwarves’ gold. This curse causes blind greed to the dwarves, making them more suspicious about the elves. Apart from that, elves have an ancient treasure in those mines. This curse is also known as Dragon Sickness, mostly seen in Thorin when he became obsessed with his gold. In the story, “Dragon Sickness” can be taken as literal or figurative. In its literal meaning it is mentioned that Smaug illed the gold for living and staying for so long in the mines. In the figurative sense, “dragon sickness" can be taken as the fever for having so much wealth.</em>

Harrizon [31]

Answer and Explanation:

How do you feel about that statistic?

That statistic makes me feel deceived, misled. Such a high number means half of the information conveyed to us is not completely trustworthy. It is what PR companies want us to think, not real information which we can use to think for ourselves. It is quite a sad reality, and it shows we still have a long way to go before we can think of ourselves as truly free. Knowledge is the rock upon which we can build our freedom. Without it, we are easily controlled and kept chained by those in power.

Do you think most people realize this?

I do not think people realize this. If more people knew about this, there would likely be a public outcry for change and better ways to filter what truly is news and what is not. That is obviously a difficult endeavor. But, just as so many others throughout history, it is worth fighting for.

const2013 [10]

The students' rights did were violated. As they planned to perform it off-campus, it is none of the school's business. Therefore, the principal doesn't have the authority to reject the play or not to allow the students. So the students had their right to perform the kind of play they wanted because it wouldn't take place at school, it would be at a local recreation center. The principal is abusing the power that he has within the school, to make decisions about things that are out of his control.
