Why does Gandalf think it is important to include Bilbo as the 14th member of the expedition

English
1 answer:
Digiron [165]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

He really didn't have a reason....... that's just how he chose to do it.......

Explanation:

"Of course, there is a mark," said Gandalf. "I put it there myself. For very good reasons. You asked me to find the fourteenth man for your expedition, and I chose Mr. Baggins. Just let anyone say I chose the wrong man or the wrong house and you can stop at thirteen and have all the bad luck you like, or go back to digging coal."

As for further explanation, the text later cites ( a few paragraphs down)

"So, no one can tell for sure why he did that, but one can think, beyond the shadow of a doubt that he 'sensed' that Bilbo is a 'man' for the job."

<h3>What is the idea of the story 'The Pit and the Pendulum ?'</h3>

The complete question is attached to the image below.

The Pit and the Pendulum is a story that reveals the topics of death and fear. The madness of the narrator is not so obvious at first and does seem sane at the beginning of the story.

But by the end of the narration, the readers can see that the narrator is getting insane and mad as can be seen by the lines that show not so great mental health of the narrator. He seemed to have been shocked and was trembling at his own voice.

Therefore, the narrator was getting mad as the story was coming to an end.

Nonessential phrases, unlike essential ones, are not that important in a sentence, and can thus be easily removed without changing the meaning of the sentence drastically. They are always set off from the rest of the sentence by commas, whereas essential phrases don't have commas around them. Here, the nonessential phrase is cradling the baseball in his mitt.</span>
