Answer:

Trying to understand the feelings of others is a form of courage.

Explanation:

'The Hobbit' is a novel written by J. R. R. Tolkien. The novel is about the quest of Bilbo Baggins.

In Chapter 5, Riddles in the Dark, of book 'The Hobbit', Bilbo met Gollum in the cave. Gollum was a small slimy creature, who lived alone in the caves and preyed upon fish and goblins. Gollum was the master of the invisible ring.

After Bilbo found the invisible ring, he put it on to run away from the cave without being seen by goblins. But Gollum smelled Bilbo and tried to stop his way. At this point, Bilbo, who was invisible, spared Gollum's life, who tried to harm him, because he considered it to be unfair as he was invisible and Gollum without sword. Then he began understand the situtation of Gollum, who lived a miserably alone life in cave, therefore, he leaped over Gollum and left the cave.

This action reveals the theme that trying to understand other's feeling is a form of courage. Therefore, option A is correct.

<u>Answer:</u>

<u><em>‘To see the movie’ </em></u><em>is the group of words which forms the prepositional phrase of the sentence. </em>

<em></em>

<u>Explanation:</u>

This is because it includes the preposition ‘to’, the object ‘movie’ and the modifier of the object ‘see’. It helps in giving the description of the noun and the actions which needs to take place. The word "see" demonstrates that the noun "movie" is actionable to vision and thus needs to be seen.
