1.f: all of the above. maybe B primarily. you can't limit LoTR to just one theme though.

2. C. The fading of the elves, lost knowledge, decline of mankind (age at least) etc.

3. I don't find much too specific. There are general things like corruption of power and revenge but that's about it. Maybe the industrialization with the Shire and Saruman.

4. D: timeless. Sorry, I'm not very good at sticking to the given answers.

5. I can never remember what allegories are, I always confuse them with other things. Doesn't matter here though, I choose D and E. The two can often be quite similar.

6. E. The fading of the elves specifically. (I'm an elf, what can I say?) There's just so much lost. *sigh*

7. E. I don't mean to read into it too much but there are some.

8. Hmm... started the Hobbit in 3rd grade but I don't think I actually finished any of them till 6th or 7th.

9. Yes. For me at least. I suppose it may stop eventually, but it won't for quite a long time for me!
