Fantasy Literature: J. R. R. Tolkien’s The Fellowship of the Ring — Quiz

Question 10 • English Language Arts 12

Which excerpt from The Fellowship of the Ring shows an element of fantasy?

Answer

It was driven by outlandish folk, singing strange songs: dwarves with long beards and deep hoods.

He wore a tall pointed blue hat, a long grey cloak, and a silver scarf.

At Bilbo’s front door the old man began to unload: there were great bundles of fireworks of all sorts of shapes

His real business was far more difficult and dangerous, but the Shire-folk knew nothing about it.

Explanation

Choice A describes dwarves—fantastical beings—and their strange songs, making it the clearest example of a fantasy element. The other choices describe unusual clothing, fireworks, or a dangerous but unspecified task without directly identifying a fantastical element.
