Answer:
1. give one example of the way smith praises his own good qualities
He speaks about how he takes on all of the heavy duties and relieves others of their burdens.
2. What impression of smiths do you get this from this account?
He is conceited and thinks highly of himself.
In my opinion, they do not only reveal what will happen, but also manipulate events. When Macbeth approached the witches, they could have concealed the truth from him and just let the events unfold, but they didn't do it. They told him about the prophecy, thus initiating the events that soon followed. If they hadn't told him the truth, Macbeth might have never killed Banquo, Duncan, and the rest in order to become king. So yes, they manipulated events and caused a great tragedy.
