What does the passage below tell you about bilbo and hobbits in general? bilbo began to whistle loudly and to forget about the night before. in fact he was just sitting down to a nice little second breakfast in the dining-room by the open window, when in walked gandalf.

The passage tells you about Bilbo and Hobbits in general that Hobbits really enjoy eating.

Explanation:

Several times not only in the story of the hobbit but also in the lord of the rings we see hobbit making reference to all the meals they have during the day, in this specific excerpt we have the phrase "he was just sitting down to a nice little second breakfast in the dining-room" only someone who really loves to eat would have a second breakfast.

shakespeare was famous for writing in iambic pentameter, which is a specific way of rhyming sonnet lines in ten syllables. there are also forms of unrhymed iambic pentameter, as in macbeth, with the noble characters.

wordsworth tends to see nature as 'out there'; a presence which surrounds humans, and contributes to human life, but is different from humans. if you look at a typical wordsworth poem (there was a boy, ye knew him well ye rocks) - wordsworth talks about nature as something that needs to be learned about and understood, nature is different from us.  

if you look at a byron poem (the isles of greece is a good one) - byron looks at nature mainly for what it already means to man. wordsworth will look at a landscape and see the mountains, trees, valleys, and rivers as almost spiritual presences - wordsworth wants to get to know nature.  

byron will look at the same landscape and he will want to know who lives there, what are the villages? are there any farms or mines, is there some history?  

wordsworth looks at nature for what it is; byron is forever asking what it means.  

wordsworth thinks that humans are part of nature; byron thinks that nature is part of being human
