Answer:
The dragon is the ultimate symbol of evil in the poem. It lives alone and hoards treasure for itself, sharing with no one and having no use for the loot. Beowulf is the dragon's opposite, generous and willing to lay down his life to save his people from being destroyed by the monster.
Explanation:
Good and evil in Beowulf relate to the idea of selflessness versus selfishness. Notice how the good characters tend to be generous, community-minded people, like the warrior kings who share treasure with their warriors or Beowulf who helps defend the innocent from the claws of Grendel. Notice how Grendel and his mother, both presented as violent and malignant, are anti-social outside of their interactions with one another. They are threats to the community, which in the poem is presented as the highest good.

Explanation:
The text from which you have to restate the idiom is:
- <em>"After the stock market crash of 1929, his newspaper had laid off most of the reporters. Is four years ago and still had only a skeleton crew. He was glad to have a job but he was overworked and underpaid"</em>
The idiom in that passage is<em> "skeleton crew". </em>Thus, <em>skeleton crew</em> cannot be taken literally. It is an expression used to mean something particular, which cannot be interprested from the meaning of each separated word.
The expression is used to tell that a business has just the minimum number of employees, barely enough to keep it open, at a basic level.
Thus, you can change the idiom and restate the text in this form:
- <em>After the stock market crash of 1929, his newspaper had laid off most of the reporters. Is four years ago and still had only </em><u>the minimum staff to keep it running at the minimum level.</u><em> He wass gladd to have a job but he was overworked and underpaid</em>
