Lord Of The Rings Question 9
"Lord of the Rings: A Long Expected Party" - What color was Gandalf's scarf?
The correct answer is 'Silver'
Tolkien wrote, Gandalf was the only wizard to stay true to the task. All the wizards were given this task. The Istaris were sent to Middle-earth to combat Sauron and unite the free peoples of Middle-earth. Saruman did many great things, but soon he lusted for power, and turned evil. Alatar and Pallando went into the East to stir up cults. Radagast did help out Gandalf, but he abandoned the "task," to tend beasts and plants. Gandalf was the only one to stay true to the task.
The info about Gandalf can be found in the Istari section of the "Unfinished Tales." As well as the info on Saruman, and the other Istari.

Lord Of The Rings Question 10
Ultimate LOTR - 'Return of the King' Part 2 - At Minas Tirith, Faramir has returned to update his father of the situation on the battlefield while Gandalf and Pippin look on. Denethor is rather displeased with Faramir for several reasons, but finds him wise at least to have avoided the same mistake that befell his brother Boromir, that is, attempting to acquire the Ring of Power.
The correct answer is 'False'
Actually, this is precisely why Denethor is most upset, and why he acknowledges the wish that it might have been Faromir, and not Boromir, who was killed in battle. Denethor is corrupted by the notion that he could somehow wield the mighty power of the ring in order to confront the very master of said power, Sauron himself. Faramir stands up proudly in the face of his father's wrath, knowing he has done the correct thing.
