1. Write 3 ideas you now understand in connection to the novel.  2.  2 quotes that encapsulate these connections and 1.  one image with a metaphor/simile that further explains your thinking]]> 2018-02-26 20:30:35 UTC https://padlet.com/jewing4/kovojfo0vt8s/wish/235619260 https://padlet.com/jewing4/kovojfo0vt8s/wish/235642215 3)Bradbury is using anaphora to express how the days repeat in F451, he is using enjambment to get points across on how days can be extremely long, and technology is filling up the feeling of equality BUT is creating a time of darkness and depression. 

2) "One, Mildred. Two, Clarisse. Three, uncle. Four, fire. One, Mildred. Two, Clarisse...." (Bradbury 15) 
"One, two, three, four, five, Clarisse, Mildred, uncle, fire, sleeping tablets, men, disposable tissue, coattails, blow, wad, flush." (Bradbury 15)

No matter what you do to a person, you can't deny them the freedom of free will
Prohibition of a mans tomorrow will always lead him to live in the day
2) "'How many copies of the bible are left in the country' 'None! You know as well as I do. None!'"
"They have not been able to take away the  rain's song, not yet, not even in this cell, but perhaps they'll do it tomorrow, that's why I want to enjoy it now. "
1) Books are like men, the more beaten they are the richer their pages of the interior.

They both feel like their freedom is being prohibited by a ruler. They both use tone and mood to express the dark feeling.
2) ..."because perhaps they will also prohibit that tomorrow."
"how many copies of the bible are left in the country."

2. "But my uncle said it was merely rationalizing it; the real reason hidden underneath,.. and they had time to think" (Bradbury 60).
"Fire is bright and fire is clean" (Bradbury 57).

3.  Montag is different like a colored pencil in the box of regular pencils.

1. we understand his argument better: that technology will lead to the decline in knowledge, and solve the problem of equality. although it will create many other problems. 
2. no matter what happens to someone you cant take away their ability to think, and question things. that is up to them. 
3. the society is boring and depressing and every day feels the same. 
2)
1. "technology, mass exploitation and minority pressure carried, thank god."
2. "he was not happy"

]]> 2018-02-26 21:26:06 UTC https://padlet.com/jewing4/kovojfo0vt8s/wish/235642324 https://padlet.com/jewing4/kovojfo0vt8s/wish/235642329 1. enjambment of sentences represents the repetitiveness of the society and how it is idol.
2.Technology fills the problem of equality, but creates another problem of a blandness and depression.
3. The abuse of power can limit the abilities of all individuals under that power.
Quotes: "but perhaps they will do it tomorrow," and "perhaps they will also prohibit that tomorrow."
"never--quite--touched--bottom--never--never--quite--no not quite--touched,"(Bradbury 42), "What a shame. You're not in love with anyone,"(Bradbury 19).

     - Technology can be used in a good or bad way.
     -  Addiction to technology is only a result of our failure to know when to stop.
     -Knowledge is the ultimate happiness.
2) - "...But perhaps they will do that tomorrow,"
They (technology) can numb you if you do not do something.
     - "Montag listened. Nothing. Nothing."
When he listened, he realized that man had caused an fake calm environment and that everything he thought was "nothing" actually had plenty of sound.
3) -Technology is like a blood-sucking mosquito]]> 2018-02-26 21:26:19 UTC https://padlet.com/jewing4/kovojfo0vt8s/wish/235642397 https://padlet.com/jewing4/kovojfo0vt8s/wish/235642402 1. Technology is useful unless it's used in the wrong way, it can lead to equality which takes away individuality, and the more you use technology, the less likely you are to think on your own. 
2. Books have "quality" and "texture"  (Bradbury 83). They're meaningful, and people don't know that since they don't ever read. 
"He was not happy" (Bradbury 12). Montag admitted that he was depressed and living in a world of darkness because there is something that is missing in his life. He's missing the knowledge he could gain from reading books. 
3.

1b. Technology can be used to fix the world and make it perfect, but it also creates new problems.
1c. Restricting the freedoms of many people can lessen knowledge and fuel depression

2a. "'Are you happy?' she said" (Bradbury 10). Behind everyone's mask to the rest of society is their true self. It is hidden because it is considered not normal, and there are restrictions in life that prevent who you are from showing.
2b) "'We do need knowledge'" (Bradbury 86). Later in the book, rebellious Guy Montag realized who he really was, and what he has done to contribute to society. He decided to read a few books, and try to understand what they really meant. The rest of society don't understand what  they can be with all the knowledge, but they only care about their technology, without being as happy as they can be.

No matter how technologically advanced a community is, it will never be perfect. 
Diversity is essential to a thriving and happy society. 
2. "'It was a special pleasure to see things... changed."
"he felt the necessity for the strange warmness and goodness that came from a familiar and gentle voice speaking in the night."
1. This image represents a metaphor; we are comparing muscles to books. Our muscles are a part of us forever, similar to the knowledge we retain from books. ]]> 2018-02-26 21:28:22 UTC https://padlet.com/jewing4/kovojfo0vt8s/wish/235643293 https://padlet.com/jewing4/kovojfo0vt8s/wish/235649165 2018-02-26 21:45:11 UTC https://padlet.com/jewing4/kovojfo0vt8s/wish/235649165 https://padlet.com/jewing4/kovojfo0vt8s/wish/235649936 2018-02-26 21:47:26 UTC https://padlet.com/jewing4/kovojfo0vt8s/wish/235649936 https://padlet.com/jewing4/kovojfo0vt8s/wish/237835699 2018-03-04 19:06:52 UTC https://padlet.com/jewing4/kovojfo0vt8s/wish/237835699 https://padlet.com/jewing4/kovojfo0vt8s/wish/237836234 1a.  Something that was written in the 1950's and was science fiction at the time, now seems somewhat true.  Its almost as if Bradbury could see into the future
1b.Even though people in the book want to extinguish the knowledge found in books, its human desire to want to know more, and there will always be those who defy "the norm" in an effort to continue to learn and gain knowledge 
1c.  Technology in the book was running the lives of people, in much the same way, that technology is beginning to run peoples lives today.  Addiction is a real concern as the book has gone past addiction to the point they only rely on that.  
2a.  On page 106, Beatty and Montag get into a fight about the usefulness of books.  Beatty is trying to convince Montag to, "Stick with the firemen, Montag. All else is dreary chaos!".  Meanwhile, Faber is telling Montag in his ear piece to watch out and not listen to Beatty. 
2b.  "White Clown's on tonight!"(Bradbury, 74).  Mildred is clearly addicted to her wall "family", and is telling her friend Ann her plans for the night, which is watching her addictive TV show.  
 3. We are glued to technology just like Mildred and her friends were glued to their TV families.
