When was Bilbo selfless in The Hobbit?
Bilbo demonstrates selflessness multiple times in "The Hobbit," most notably when he offers to take on the role of burglar for the dwarves despite his initial reluctance and fear. He also risks his own safety to save the dwarves from spiders in Mirkwood Forest and from imprisonment by the Wood-elves. Additionally, Bilbo shows selflessness when he spares Gollum's life during their encounter in the dark caves, choosing not to kill him despite the potential threat.
What role does respectability play in the narrator's assessment of Bilbo in the hobbit?
Great question! Because Bilbo Baggins is so "respectable," and is not the sort who has adventures of any kind, it makes his later behavior stand out in stark contrast when he finds himself doing all sorts of "adventurous" things, like fighting spiders in the forest, and riding barrels to Laketown.
Why didn't Bilbo kill Gollum?

Rivendell was not central to the story of Bilbo and the Dwarves and the quest for Erebor. Elrond played a minor role in that he deciphered the moon letters but was not part of the quest.
