N this chapter, Bilbo demonstrates that he has mastered the use of the ring and understands its strategic power. He also exercises discretion in not revealing its existence to the dwarves. He begins to be clever. It is significant that the dwarves respect him after he tells his tale; their growing respect contrasts with the begrudging attitude they had toward Bilbo at the beginning of the story, when they only tolerated him for Gandalf's sake. Although he is changing quickly, Bilbo is still enough of a hobbit to notice his hunger.
Like Bilbo's inadvertent passage through the Misty Mountains, the stony slide is an unexpected step forward on their journey, a lucky accident.
The Wargs live up to their traditional wolf reputation for savagery, and Gandalf provides a model for ingenuity in setting them on fire with burning pinecones. The Wargs are grounded creatures; they travel on land. The eagles, as flying creatures, have the power to transcend the danger of earth, although they are not immune to the dangers posed by men with weapons. Bilbo and the dwarves experience some of the transcendence — and vulnerability — of the eagles' way of life when they spend the night in the eyrie.

Which of the following is the primary goal of a thesis statement?

Before any work can be done on crafting the body of your speech or presentation, you must first do some prep work—selecting a topic, formulating a purpose statement, and crafting a thesis statement. In doing so, you lay the foundation for your speech by making important decisions about what you will speak about and for what purpose you will speak. These decisions will influence and guide the entire speechwriting process, so it is wise to think carefully and critically during these beginning stages.

I think reading is important in any form. I think a person who’s trying to learn to like reading should start off reading about a topic they are interested in, or a person they are interested in. ~ Ice Cube

Questions for Selecting a Topic

What important events are occurring locally, nationally and internationally?

What do I care about most?

Is there someone or something I can advocate for?

What makes me angry/happy?

What beliefs/attitudes do I want to share?

Is there some information the audience needs to know?

Selecting a Topic

Generally, speakers focus on one or more interrelated topics—relatively broad concepts, ideas, or problems that are relevant for particular audiences. The most common way that speakers discover topics is by simply observing what is happening around them—at their school, in their local government, or around the world. This is because all speeches are brought into existence as a result of circumstances, the multiplicity of activities going on at any one given moment in a particular place. For instance, presidential candidates craft short policy speeches that can be employed during debates, interviews, or town hall meetings during campaign seasons. When one of the candidates realizes he or she will not be successful, the particular circumstances change and the person must craft different kinds of speeches—a concession speech, for example. In other words, their campaign for presidency, and its many related events, necessitates the creation of various speeches. Rhetorical theorist Lloyd Bitzer[1] describes this as the rhetorical situation. Put simply, the rhetorical situation is the combination of factors that make speeches and other discourse meaningful and a useful way to change the way something is. Student government leaders, for example, speak or write to other students when their campus is facing tuition or fee increases, or when students have achieved something spectacular, like lobbying campus administrators for lower student fees and succeeding. In either case, it is the situation that makes their speeches appropriate and useful for their audience of students and university employees. More importantly, they speak when there is an opportunity to change a university policy or to alter the way students think or behave in relation to a particular event on campus.

But you need not run for president or student government in order to give a meaningful speech. On the contrary, opportunities abound for those interested in engaging speech as a tool for change. Perhaps the simplest way to find a topic is to ask yourself a few questions. See the textbox entitled “Questions for Selecting a Topic” for a few questions that will help you choose a topic.

There are other questions you might ask yourself, too, but these should lead you to at least a few topical choices. The most important work that these questions do is to locate topics within your pre-existing sphere of knowledge and interest. David Zarefsky[2] also identifies brainstorming as a way to develop speech topics, a strategy that can be helpful if the questions listed in the textbox did not yield an appropriate or interesting topic.

Starting with a topic you are already interested in will likely make writing and presenting your speech a more enjoyable and meaningful experience. It means that your entire speechwriting process will focus on something you find important and that you can present this information to people who stand to benefit from your speech.

Once you have answered these questions and narrowed your responses, you are still not done selecting your topic. For instance, you might have decided that you really care about conserving habitat for bog turtles. This is a very broad topic and could easily lead to a dozen different speeches. To resolve this problem, speakers must also consider the audience to whom they will speak, the scope of their presentation, and the outcome they wish to achieve. If the bog turtle enthusiast knows that she will be talking to a local zoning board and that she hopes to stop them from allowing businesses to locate on important bog turtle habitat, her topic can easily morph into something more specific. Now, her speech topic is two-pronged: bog turtle habitat and zoning rules.

Thesis statement for fahrenheit 451 (Like about fear) I will give BRAINLIEST!! I AM BEING TIMED!!!
Mkey [24]

Answer:

Fahrenheit 451 demonstrates the dangers of a society focused only on the immediate gratification of the present. This society has all but erased history. Its members derive meaningless pleasure from watching their "families" on futuristic televisions and don't engage in any meaningful conversations.
