    Beorn can be a Human and a Bear?

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. True
    Explanation
    The statement is true because Beorn, a character from J.R.R. Tolkien's "The Hobbit," has the ability to transform into both a human and a bear. This transformation is a unique trait possessed by Beorn, allowing him to switch between the two forms as he pleases. As a human, Beorn is a powerful and skilled warrior, while as a bear, he is even more formidable and can use his strength and size to his advantage.

    • Slicer

    Correct Answer
    A. Sting
    Explanation
    In J.R.R. Tolkien's novel, "The Hobbit," Bilbo Baggins names his sword "Sting." This name is given to the weapon because whenever Orcs are nearby, the sword glows with a blue light, warning Bilbo of their presence. The name "Sting" reflects the sword's ability to sting and cause harm to Bilbo's enemies, particularly the Goblins and Orcs that he encounters on his journey.

This vulnerability is exploited by Bard the Bowman, who shoots an arrow into the exposed spot, ultimately leading to Smaug's downfall.
