KMC Forums - ROTK quiz

Hello all, just got a book quiz today and wanted to ask for some help. I read ROTK about 2.5 months ago over about a 1 month period and just got a quiz over this week since the rest of my class took a lot longer to read it. I’ve been re-reading parts over the past few hours but I haven’t really been able to find much of the information. I guess my memory must kinda suck ontop of having 1 big quiz over the entire thing so anyways if any of you could help me out with some of the questions I would appreciate it. I know some of its easy like how ring gets destroyed but thats one of few I can remember :P

Thanks in advance

Heres the quiz:
