Always at night the alarm comes. Never by day! Is it because the fire is prettier by night? More spectacle, a better show?" Then Montag is characterized as worried and cautious at ""Go on," said the woman, and Montag felt himself back away and away out the door, after Beatty, down the steps, across the lawn, where the path of kerosene lay like the track of some evil snail. On the front porch where she had come to weigh them quietly with her eyes, her quietness a condemnation, the woman stood motionless." Figurative language is used to characterize him by using metaphors of evil things, like evil snails and condemnation and worry of sinister feelings.]]> 2021-04-16 21:03:41 UTC https://padlet.com/shannonjauregui/dje1vm3wil2omirh/wish/1427214990 https://padlet.com/shannonjauregui/dje1vm3wil2omirh/wish/1427215008 Bradbury uses figurative language to create images in the readers head, "It was a flaking three-story house in the ancient part of the city, a century old if it was a day". Bradbury uses this to develop a mysterious mood that makes the reader curious. ]]> 2021-04-16 21:03:41 UTC https://padlet.com/shannonjauregui/dje1vm3wil2omirh/wish/1427215008 https://padlet.com/shannonjauregui/dje1vm3wil2omirh/wish/1427215025 Bradbury uses several metaphors to describe Montag's situation and feelings but shifts to more personification toward the middle of this section and then switches to similes at the end. These examples can be found when Bradbury writes "Montag slid down the pole like a man in a dream" (32) showing how Montag is acting strange creating a conflicted mood about what Montag is thinking about. Then after opening the addict, Bradbury writes, "His hand had done it all, his hand, with a brain of its own, with a conscience and a curosity in each trembling finger, had turned theif" (35) to show that after reading the line from the book Montag personifies his hand creating a fearful and worried mood that Montag may be found out for reading. Then Bradbury switches to similes to write. "Montag felt the hidden book pound like a heart against his chest" (37) to show how Montag is worried about stealing the book and creates a mood of fear and tension for the reader.]]> 2021-04-16 21:03:42 UTC https://padlet.com/shannonjauregui/dje1vm3wil2omirh/wish/1427215025 https://padlet.com/shannonjauregui/dje1vm3wil2omirh/wish/1427215083 2021-04-16 21:03:44 UTC https://padlet.com/shannonjauregui/dje1vm3wil2omirh/wish/1427215083 https://padlet.com/shannonjauregui/dje1vm3wil2omirh/wish/1427215463 Bradbury creates a gloomy tone towards censorship in this scene. The people in this society speak like it's a routine thing for people to commit suicide. When Montag tries to help a woman get out of her burning home, the firefighters say, "We're due back at the house. Besides, these fanatics always try to commit suicide; the pattern's familiar." ]]> 2021-04-16 21:03:54 UTC https://padlet.com/shannonjauregui/dje1vm3wil2omirh/wish/1427215463 https://padlet.com/shannonjauregui/dje1vm3wil2omirh/wish/1427215522 The mood in the first section of Fahrenheit 451 is sad or depressed. Montag is sad or nervous and is questioning his job, it says "Everyone watched Montag. He did not move."(Bradbury 1). This shows that he is sad or nervous, because he isn't moving, and everyone is still watching him. This mood is also expressed when Montag and the other firefighters are doing their job and save a girl who isn't even trying to get safe. To wake her up in reality they end up slapping her across the face. this shows that they have no respect for others showing that they are reckless and careless.]]> 2021-04-16 21:03:56 UTC https://padlet.com/shannonjauregui/dje1vm3wil2omirh/wish/1427215522 https://padlet.com/shannonjauregui/dje1vm3wil2omirh/wish/1427215557 Bradbury creates a sinister tone towards censorship through the use of figurative language by having the firemen burn an entire house down for containing books. Bradbury further deepens the tone by having a women die along with the books creating a worse image about the censorship of books.]]> 2021-04-16 21:03:57 UTC https://padlet.com/shannonjauregui/dje1vm3wil2omirh/wish/1427215557 https://padlet.com/shannonjauregui/dje1vm3wil2omirh/wish/1427215827 Montag is characterized as worried and the figurative language is characterized as cautious because Montag  is trying to help her from attempting suicide. This gives of a lot of imagery and metaphors such as “His pink face burnt and shiny from a thousand fires and night excitements.”]]> 2021-04-16 21:04:05 UTC https://padlet.com/shannonjauregui/dje1vm3wil2omirh/wish/1427215827 https://padlet.com/shannonjauregui/dje1vm3wil2omirh/wish/1427217036 "They crashed the front door and grabbed at a woman, though she was not running." It was like the women wanted to get took. " Her eyes fixed upon a nothingness in the all as if they had strucked her a terrible blow upon the head." She looked frozen. ]]> 2021-04-16 21:04:37 UTC https://padlet.com/shannonjauregui/dje1vm3wil2omirh/wish/1427217036 https://padlet.com/shannonjauregui/dje1vm3wil2omirh/wish/1427218146 Bradbury uses a lot of similes to compare things usually to something disheartening. For example this quote "The men above were hurling shovelfuls of magazines _ They fell like slaughtered birds and the women stood below, like a small girl, among the bodies" (34). He makes this simile to exaggerate the situation and to add drama. I think he is successful at this as it makes the reader picture the woman in the house as an innocent little girl standing in a sea of bird corpses. ]]> 2021-04-16 21:05:13 UTC https://padlet.com/shannonjauregui/dje1vm3wil2omirh/wish/1427218146 https://padlet.com/shannonjauregui/dje1vm3wil2omirh/wish/1427221647 Throughout this scene, Bradbury creates a sinister tone towards censorship by creating a scene of a woman dying due to censorship. Bradbury coice of diction using words such as "reached out with contempt." and imagery such as "The books lay in mounds like fish left to dry" Showing how much history and knowlegde they are destroying along with how many people they are damaging by doing this.

The brass pole shivered" (Bradbury). This is creating a worried mood for the reader. ]]> 2021-04-16 21:07:24 UTC https://padlet.com/shannonjauregui/dje1vm3wil2omirh/wish/1427222167 https://padlet.com/shannonjauregui/dje1vm3wil2omirh/wish/1427224567 Conflict is created when Montag ends up taking a book with anyone seeing or knowing. " Now it plunged tho book back under his arm, pressed it tight to sweating armpit, rushed out empty, with a magicians flourish!"(pg. 35). He had done it so quick it could have looked like a magic trick. It changes the mood quickly by making it seem suspenseful, because now he has something he knows he shouldn't have.]]> 2021-04-16 21:08:42 UTC https://padlet.com/shannonjauregui/dje1vm3wil2omirh/wish/1427224567
