3. Why does the Lilliputian government go to such trouble to feed and shelter Gulliver if 

Answer 2

At first, Gulliver is a curiosity to the Lilliputians , being enormous and yet somehow subservient to them (Gulliver has no wish to destroy them , although he is more then able). After teaching Gulliver their language , the Lilliputians draw up a contact of rules and requarments for Gulliver including the most important;

''6th , he shall be our ally against our enemies in the island of Blefusco, do his almost to destroy their fleet , which is now preparing to invade us.''

Although they also request to Gulliver help carry large stone and use his height to bring their messengers great distances , the use of Gulliver as a weapon of war on is the most telling . Neither kingdom has had a weapon quite so powerful , and so Gulliver represent the ascension of Lilliput to a position of power . In return , they will feed him and grant him certain freedoms m Gulliver, being a friendly sort takes advantage of these freedom to learn more about their society. He is not really exited about the prospect of war, but he does help when it is needed
