7. What does the White Clown show lead you to believe about television programming in this society?
8. Why does Mrs. Phelps cry when Montag reads “Dover Beach”?
9. What is Montag’s destination at the end of section II? Why?



Answers:

1.)  Montag is quite interested and excited to be feeling and able to read what he thinks is something useful. While, Mildred on the other hand is like whatever this is nonsense we don't need this.

2.)  I think the effect about the bombers flying over is quite more alarming towards the people that fear of this effect .

3.) Professor Faber is an older man who Montag met at a park reading some type of book, but before banning books he was an English Professor.

4.) He reacts by memorizing a certain quote that he saw from the commercial and he reacted pretty darn devoted toward what later made him think of things very different,especially in religious ways would be why he reacted like that

5.) The argument Faber makes for books is that they have QUALITY. QUALITY means to Faber TEXTURE, PORES, IT HAS FEATURES YOU CAN FIND LIFE UNDER IT .

6.) The "small green object" is like a blue tooth hearing device that now a days our FBI agencies or others  use to listen to certain conversations I would say.

7.)  The White Clown show leads me to think that tv programming during that time period was very explicit when it comes to women laughing when a clown just had his/her head chopped off as well as a not so positive programming for others I guess.

8.)  Mrs. Phelps cries because she doesn't even know why she just say " I don't know, don't know.."

9.) Montag's destination is his home and I feel that it's that b/c either Mildred snitched on him about having books or either she actually committed suicide by overdosing on the pills after Montag scared her friends reading the poem.

Fahrenheit 451: Questions 1.The novel Fahrenheit 451 begins : “It was a pleasure to burn.” Why does Ray Bradbury start the novel in this way? Why might it be more pleasurable to burn books rather than read them? 2. In the opening scene, why are the books compared to birds? 3. Discuss the difference between Montag and Clarisse’s lives. 4. Montag’s television includes headphones called “seashells.”  The “wall to wall circuit” allows Mildred to enter the “play” and, therefore, the television programming. How does the technology within the novel compare to our current technology? In the first pages of the novel,does technology improve the quality of life for Montag and his wife, Mildred? Why or why not? 5. Why does the narrator introduce us to Montag at this time of his life, when he encounters Clarisse and confronts Mildred’s overdose? 6. Why does the author introduce the character of Clarisse before Mildred? 7. Why are all the houses fireproof in this society? 8.

A HUG IS NEARLY A GUN SPELLED BACKWARDS I completely agree with E.M. Foster's view because people will have a healthy, long-lasting life. I also think people are responsible for achieving these purposes.   I believe that E.M. Foster's view is a firm assertion. For instance, studies show that if we have personal relations we have a chance of having a healthy,long-lasting life spand. To add to that, studies have also shown people with no personal relations have a higher chance to catch a cold or flu and feel unhealthy.Other than, having a healthy and long-lasting life people also have better communication skills. Such as, people working together as a team and showing teamwork efforts. Also, understanding, suggesting, one another is a key idea of people improving their communication skills and having  better relations. Lastly, listening to gain full meaning of one another is the most important communication skill, people improve and learn from these personal relations.  Becaus

WE EAT SOCIAL MEDIA Notably, we can see from the author's use of diction,syntax,tone,and rhetorical strageties to develop his main arguments, are asserted well.   From the beginning, he introduces his tone of what he is feeling about this subject quite unsettled, this is because the subject is the Internet expanding to something more than electronics, social media, and "pictures" portrayed differently than they used to be. For example, before smart phones and the internet started to develop the only thing people had was "Polaroid or Developing cameras which you had to go through a process which took awhile and was quite expensive to have these images be developed",because of this later on you would show the family all the pictures in albums. While on the other hand, with phones and the internet being a drastic change to society it had a "different impact on us because we don't show our pictures like we used to we do it on social media ". Which t
