Fahrenheit 451 questions part 2

1. Mildred misses watching Her tv shows and she is afraid that people will find out that they have books. While Montag likes reading he wants to know why people burn books. 

2. Sections 1 and 2 have the effect of wondering when it comes to the bomb flying over. Montag doesn't know why the war isn't discussed between the society. 

3. Professor Fabor is an old teacher who used to teach English but retired. He owns books and wants more. 

4. Montag's reaction to the commercial is that he can't concentrate in what he is doing so he starts arguing out loud and everyone looks at him. 

5. The argument that Fabor makes for the books is that he says something like it's not just a book it's what's in the book such as the words/story. 

6. The "small green metal object" is like an earpiece. 

7. The White Clown show leads me to believe about television programming in this society that people can be entertained easily. 

8. Mrs. Phelps cries when Montag reads "Dover Beach" because she gets carried away by the emotion of the poem because she's never heard a poem being read. 

9. Montag's destination at the end of section 2 is to his home. When they get to the destination Beatty watches Montag because he wants to see how he will react when he notices that they're going to burn his house down 

Fahrenheit 451 questions

1. I think that Ray Bradbury started the novel this way because he wanted to start his story different from other authors or just to grab the readers attention.

2. In the opening scene the book is compared to birds because

3.the difference between Montag's life and Clarisses's life is that Clarisse has a family she's happy and she seems humble all the time (so far in the story). While in Montag's life his wife tried killing herself it seems like he's brainwashed and Clarisse isn't she's not afraid to speak about what she's thinking.

4. The headphones called "seashells" are like ours because you go into your own world blocking everyone else. Then when he goes into his house he has a hand recognition to go into his home. We have that with our phones but instead of being our whole hand its our finger and it unlocks it.

5. I feel like the narrator introduced Montag to show how their society is and how he reacted when he met Clarisse because she was different. Then his wife overdoses kind of showing how she doesn't like her life.

6. I think that Clarisse was introduced first because she's seems happier then Mildred. It makes the story "take a turn" because it starts off normal or happy and then its turns to Mildred showing how unhappy she is.

7. All the houses in the society are fireproof for safety. So when they burned books the houses wont catch on fire.

8. Mildred required emergency service because she overdosed on pills. The doctor arrives at their home and acts like it isn't a big deal and that it happens all the time.

9. I'm assuming that the mechanical hound is where Montag stays and supervises or something like that. I'm not really sure.

10. The society considers Clarisse "anti-social" because she asks a lot of questions from the society while other people just act the same like each other. They act like followers and she doesn't.

11. I think that the lady lighted the match because she didn't want to leave her books.

12. Montag and Mildred's relationship is very unhappy. They don't remember when they met or how they met it seems like they don't love each other. She's unhappy that she even tried killing herself.

•Montag had a conversation with Clarisse and he cares about it because he had a conversation with a person.

•Montag was panicking when his wife overdosed.
