What indications are given that gollum was not always as he presently appears to bilbo?

English

Answer:

Bilbo regains consciousness in pitch black. Crawling along the tunnel, he picks up a metal ring, “almost without thinking.” Taking comfort from the discovery that his little sword is also an elvish blade that shines when goblins are near, he starts walking down the tunnel but stops when he walks into cold water.

When Gollum can’t find his ring, he guesses (correctly, this time) that Bilbo has it and comes to attack Bilbo. As Bilbo runs away, he puts his hand in his pocket to figure out what he does have there, and the ring slips onto his finger. Gollum runs past, and Bilbo follows Gollum to the “back door.” There Gollum stops, smelling many goblins, and blocks the passage. Eventually, he senses Bilbo and readies himself to spring. Bilbo briefly contemplates killing him, but a “sudden understanding, a pity mixed with horror, welled up in Bilbo’s heart,” and he jumps over Gollum instead.

Bilbo runs to the door and is seen by the goblins because the ring has slipped off his finger. He puts it back on, dodges goblins, and eventually squeezes through the door, leaving “his nice brass buttons” all over the doorstep.

A)The adjective "local" is formed by adding a suffix to a free morepheme.
slega [8]

Answer:

a). False

b). singular only

Explanation:

a). The adjective 'local' which denotes 'from or in a nearby location' exemplifies a base word. In this word, the suffix '-al' is joined with a bound morpheme 'loc-' to make it meaningful. Bound morphemes cannot stand on their own to convey meaning and thus, it requires another suffix or prefix to accomplish its meaning. Thus, the statement is false as the 'local' itself is a root word used with various suffixes to derive words like locally, localized, locality, etc.

b). Grammatically, <u>the noun 'news' is considered singular, as well as, uncountable and therefore, it carries a singular verb</u>. It remains the same irrespective of the singular or plural context in which it is being used. It doesn't carry an indefinite article as it specifies the number of the noun. The noun 'news' varies its meaning in the context which it is used in. However, the form remains 'singular only.'
