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.

Kobotan [32]
In Pygmalion, we observe a society divided, separated by language, education, and wealth. Shaw gives us a chance to see how that gap can be bridged, both successfully and unsuccessfully. As he portrays it, London society cannot simply be defined by two terms, "rich" and "poor."

Within each group there are smaller less obvious distinctions, and it is in the middle, in that gray area between wealth and poverty that many of the most difficult questions arise and from which the most surprising truths emerge.

<em>The Interesting Narrative of the Life of Olaudah Equiano </em>was the first autobigraphy of a slave. It was first published in 1789 and made an impact on Britain, as it made many of the people who read it to support the abolitionist cause.

Equiano converted to Christianity in 1759 and used its Golden Rule of "do unto others, as you have done to you" to reach the audience and try to change their approach towards slavery.

His Christian's beliefs were a fundamental part of his life, especially on his way to become a prominent anti-slavery figure and a writer.
