Churchill uses rhetoric to advance his purpose by doing what's outlined in letter D: Churchill uses a metaphor that compares the newly formed United Nations to a temple, thereby strengthening his argument that the UN's mission to secure peace and maintain freedom is a moral and ethical one that must be supported.
Churchill uses a metaphor, since he doesn't make direct comparisons. He says: "We must make sure...that <em>it is a true temple of peace</em> in which the shields of many nations can some day be hung up..." He doesn't say: "that it is <em>like</em> a true temple of peace" Had he put it that way it would have been a <em>direct</em> comparison, and not a metaphor.
Churchill strengthens his argument that the UN's mission to secure peace and maintain freedom is a moral and ethical one that must be supported by using the metaphor above, and he makes it even stronger by using and contrasting different, opposing metaphors in addition to the one commented on in the paragraph above: "that it is a force for action, and not merely a frothing of words, that it is a true temple of peace in which the shields of many nations can some day be hung up, and not merely a cockpit in the Tower of Babel."
Bilbo Baggins, the protagonist of The Hobbit, is one of a race of creatures about half the size of humans, beardless and with hairy feet. He lives in an unspecified time that is at once ancient and also very like the Victorian age, with its cozy domestic routines. Like most hobbits, Bilbo is fond of the comforts of home and hearth: He loves good, simple food in abundance, and he loves his pipe and well-furnished hobbit-hole. The book opens, in fact, with Bilbo's smoking a pipe one morning just outside his home; shortly afterward, he finds himself serving high tea — including coffee, cakes, scones, jam, tart, and pies — to thirteen dwarves. Memories of this kind of plain English food follow Bilbo throughout his hardships on his journey, when he is often hungry, and represent what home means to him. Bilbo is also fastidious: He does not like the mess the dwarves create in his home and, although he has been invited by Gandalf to join a dramatic adventure, in Chapter 2 he almost returns home because he has forgotten his handkerchiefs and his pipe.
Bilbo is called upon to do more than he imagines himself capable of. He does not like to travel, preferring the safety of his hobbit-hole, but he has inherited a streak of adventurousness from his mother's side, the Tooks. His adventurous Took side and his comfort-loving Baggins side are in conflict throughout much of the story. For the first half of the book, he is often hapless and rather cowardly. He begins by falling into a fit when he feels prevailed upon to join Gandalf and the dwarves, and later he must be carried by Dori when they are escaping the Goblins. In the face of difficulties, he is often afraid and constantly daydreams of bacon and eggs and wishes himself back home. In Chapter 2, he is caught trying to pickpocket the trolls.
