This is your answer:
A man is camping with his wife in Colorado. After the first couple of days in the mountains, they realize they are out of food (not water) and our too deep in the forest to go back to their car. They both sincerely want to continue on the journey so they assume that with the man's weapons they might find some animal to kill and then they would cook it, then eat it. After one whole day of searching for food they cannot find anything to eat. They decide to go back to their car and along the journey they collect small plants and sterilize them with the water they have left in their satchel so they can have at least minimal food. They were able to survive because of their willing to eat uncommon organisms and their courage to travel back to their car with not a lot of food in their bellies.
Hope this helps!
Answer:
Part A:
b) He is blessed with good timing and luck.
Part B:
b) 'Poor little blighter,' said William. He had already had as much supper as he could hold; also, he had had lots of beer. 'Poor little blighter! Let him go!'
e) "The day grew lighter and warmer as they floated along. After a while, the river rounded a steep shoulder of land that came down upon their left ... Suddenly the cliff fell away. The shores sank. The trees ended. Then Bilbo saw a sight: The lands opened wide about him, filled with the waters of the river which broke up and wandered in a hundred winding courses."
Explanation:
Based on chapter 9 and 10, we can infer that Bilbo is blessed with timing and luck.
In the line that starts with 'poor little blighter...', Bilbo is lucky because as he gets caught up, he does not end up being cooked because at that time, William had just eaten and was full of food and beer.
In the second instance, "The day grew lighter and warmer as they floated along......, Bilbo finally got to see the lonely mountain that he had come far to see. There, felt fortunate as he listened to the information that the raftsmen let fall.
