1. Summarize what happens in one or two sentences.
In this sence Mildred and her friends send in an alarm on Montag for having books. Montag is forced to burn his house and books and then he would be arrested. Montag's anger got to the best of him and he burned Beatty and the Hound to death.
2. On your blog, copy down one sentence from this reading selection that strikes you as particularly descriptive. Which of the 5 senses does it appeal to? What verbs, adjectives, or figurative language are used and why are they effective in describing a certain action, person, or thing?
"He cut off it's terrible emptiness, drew back, and gave the entire room a git of one huge bright yellow flower of burning."
I liked how Rad Bradbury described the fire shooting out of the flame thrower a "yellow flower of burning". It makes me think of a bright, huge, flower shaped ball of fire growing and filling up the room.

I really liked this quote also. But I would like to know more about why you liked it so much.
