Ask a question: What do you find confusing? What is something you don’t understand?
I don't have any questions on the book at the moment.
1) Montag compares Mildred (his wife) to Clarisse and says that Clarisse seems older. In what way does Clarisse act more mature and WHY do you think she is more mature? Why does Bradbury (the author) make the contrast between the two?
Clarisse seems more mature because she thinks about how things work in the world and how things used to be, where as Mildred just thinks about more materialistic and carefree things such as, when the fourth wall in there house will be built and her play. I think Bardbury makes contasts between these two women to show the "typical" and the "abnormal" roles women are suppose to play in their society.
2) How are the people in the novel – both children and adults - similar and/or different from people today?
On page 29 and 30 it describes the culture of the people. Some similarites is that they go to Fun Parks and play games and relax. Though a difference is that in school they only take classes such as TV class, sports, painting where as today we take mainly academics and then one or two electives.
