For example, “that person in my class has the brand new Playstation. I wish my parents were that rich to buy me one.”
The settings in the book are essential for development of the characters in the novel and their relationships with each other.Tolkien writes that "the cliffs on Lonely Mountain are tall and grim, and that danger lurks in every rock". In addition to being dangerous and scary, the mountain is a fortress that looks impossible to enter. The language used in the chapter creates a sense of fear, suspense and threat as, once again, the travelers find that they have to rely on Bilbo to retrieve the Arkenstone. Just as Smaug, the dragon greedily guards his treasure, Thorin and the other dwarves reveal how greedily they want to get it. The dark winding tunnels and the Battle of Five Armies make Lonely Mountain the complete opposite of the Shire, showing to readers how much Bilbo has changed over time. This chapter shows characters in a new light.
Assuming that you're referring to the excerpt from "My Father Writes to my Mother", the statement that best describes the overall impact of the setting would be: Mother feels empowered when she is in the company of her sisters and cousins.
The mother grew up in a culture where women need to be subservient to her husband. Meanwhile, her sisters and cousins seem to have a different perspective for women's role.
Answer: Walking is better than a car ride because walking has various health benefits, it does not cause air pollution, it does not cause noise pollution either, it does not contribute to traffic issues, it is the cheapest method of commute, and one is less likely to meet any serious accidents while walking.
Explanation: Walking has been counted in the best exercises for the body for ages. Doctors and physicians prescribe walking over using cars because walking helps regulate a number of functions in the body and also helps reduce excess fat. From the conversation point of view, walking should be preferred because it is environment-friendly. Walking does not leave a carbon footprint and causes no harm to the surrounding. More people walking would mean less vehicular traffic on the road, and ultimately more convenience in managing the traffic. Other than being healthy, walking is also 'safe' as a pedestrian is less likely to meet a deadly road accident than a car driver is. Moreover, walking costs way less than driving a car does.
