Ian Holmes as Bilbo Baggins
in New Line Cinema's
Fellowship of the Ring Movie
Directed by Peter Jackson 1. Accompanying each chapter there will be a quiz. All quizzes will be found on the thread entitled "The Hobbit Fun Quizzes." Each Quiz will be designated by its Chapter and Title. i.e. Chapter 1-The Unexpected Party. 2. The questions are all multiple choice with four possible answers to each question. 3. Read each question and select the answer you feel is the best answer by touching the chapter-related graphic next to your choice. Be careful! Once you make a selection, the quiz registers the first choice for tabulating your results. 4. Wait a moment for your selection to register. The graphic will NOT appear to depress when you touch it. 5. After it registers, a pop-up window will appear telling you whether your answer was correct or incorrect. 6. The pop-up window will also give you a short commentary on the answer you have chosen. All answers have some sort of commentary included to further your understanding. 7. Close the pop-up window after you answer each question. This will allow you to go on to the next question. 8. Continue answering all questions the same way. 9. When you complete the quiz, touch the oblong blue ball next to "Grade exam." The results of your quiz will appear in a pop-up window. After reviewing, click "OK." 10. Bilbo encourages you to try taking the Fun Quizzes without using the Book! He feels it is much more challenging and tests your true knowledge of The Hobbit. 11. To return to the Hobbit study, click on the "X" in the upper right hand corner of your screen. The quiz closes. Or click the <= Back button on your browser toolbar. 12. After closing the quiz, you may go back and retake the quiz as often as you like and try to improve on your score. 13. Bilbo hopes that he made the quizzes fun and challenging and that you like them as well as get an excellent score! He hopes that his quizzes helped you learn, too! 14. Bilbo is VERY curious to hear your comments about the quizzes, so he would like to encourage you to post them on this thread! Well, I checked some of the quiz links and the website that I had posted these on is no longer available--it was one from an old email account I had where I got a free webspace for signing up with them. Oh! Dear! I should have removed all the quizzes and moved them somewhere else! |

I like the idea of quizzes. In this one I got 80% the first time I tried it. The questions I didn't remember and got wrong were 7 and 8. I got them right the second time but I suppose this doesn't count. All in all, it was very entertaining and I'm looking forward to the next quizz!

The quiz was great! Again my answers didn't register and I had no windows opened, however, I enjoy the game. (This happened with the LOTR quizzes, too) Remember what I said about old dogs and new tricks? Thanks again, Love, Camellia  |

Great quizz! I got the one about Bilbo's parents wrong because I answered too quick and was thinking about Frodo's father Drogo!

The quizzes for chapters 2 and 3 were great fun as the first one. I really enjoyed them! By the way, it would be nice if the quizzes became more difficult as we get further into the story. Although I suppose no quizz can be too difficult if you have just read the chapter! lol

"Skai! Take the quiz, you sneak!" demanded Bâshsnak. "Or I will eat you!"
"Wait til I get my claws on that wizard--tricking those Trolls that way! Them were just hungry and looking for something sweet to eat! Skai! Turned to stone, turned to stone!" Bâshsnak shakes his head sadly.
