Identify a second strategy Tolkien used in this excerpt to help the reader understand the character Gollum (Smeagol)
· Name the strategy
· Identify at least one example of the strategy from the excerpt
· Explain what the example tells the reader about Gollum (Smeagol)
What will be an ideal response?
Tolkien uses actions to help the reader understand Gollum. After Gollum/Smeagol fights with himself over what to do about the Precious, he finally gives in to one of his selves and begins to reach for Frodo's throat. Either what he wants is on Frodo's neck or he plans to strangle Frodo (because he is a ‘Baggins'). This shows that the wicked self is winning the argument and he plans to do harm.
