         <description><![CDATA[<p>In page 10 in Fahrenheit 451, it is the first mention of “shells”, which are like headphones for sleep that lets you hear waves and sea sounds. In page 12 and 13 it introduces a machine that is used to replace people's blood. This was needed as people kept accidentally taking too many pills, with them noticing. Another technology used is “the hound” (23) The hound is a dog looking animal with 8 legs that is made from robotic parts and chemicals. The firemen let these hounds out and program them to kill people.</p>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<p>In page 18, the obsession of TV is seen when Mildred requests to get the fourth wall as a full TV. It also mentions her obsession with the “family” even though they do not know each other, which also technically does not exist.</p>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<p>In pg. 27, we can see that children get bullied in school just as in real life, and there are so called 'rage rooms' where children bully each other and also break objects like cars, and other things. Clarisse says, "I'm afraid of children my own age. They kill each other." The only small difference is children get bullied in real life while children get killed in this dystopia.</p>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<p>On page 30, on line 12, it says: " He was about to reply, but I had muted him, so I didnt hear what he said". On the same page, on line 9-10-11, it says: "The ability to mute my peers was my favourite thing to do in trending school". This shows that in the OASIS, you can mute people, block them and completely remove them from their world, making the world around them more isolated, antisocial, empty and sad.</p><p><br/></p><p>pg4 - 'This was my first videogame system I ever owned". looking at how a person is getting addicted to video games at a young age because he was around 8 years old when he had his game. It affects him in the long term as you can see how he isolates himself and becomes alone. Isolation is also a social issue that we can point out. </p><p><br/></p><p>On page 23, on line 23-26, it says."Mrs. G was super-religious and spent most of their time in the OASIS, sitting in the congregation of one of those big online mega-churches, singing hymns, listening to sermons, and taking virtual tours of the Holy Land. This shows that the OASIS is a virtual program where you could play games or participate in online events such as churches, etc. This is very similar to an oculus in real life such as you can play games, participate events,etc.</p>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<p>We can see that firemen, children and other people use lots of violence in this dystopia. As said above, as in pg. 27, we see Clarisse explaining children acting violent. Also we can see that firemen are very violent in burning books. </p>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<p>"Is it because we are having so much fun at home we've forgotten the world?" (69)</p><p>"I heard rumors; the world is starving, but we're well fed" (70). </p><p>Bradbury talks about the world being so consumed by technology, many people are unaware of the social issues happening outside of their comfort zone outside their home. This shows that people are ignorant and no one talks about issues to that do not affect them, as to stop them from evolving, because if it does not concern you then it should not matter to you, there is government censcorship as to conceal people from the truth and make them live in this bubble.  In the real world, people are so connected and glued to their screens where they repress their thoughts and emotions of being social, and instead are consumed by their own company and even the government isn't bringing up social issues and have started to conceal them or start censoring them.</p>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<p>In pg. 11 to 13, Montag's, wife takes too many sleeping pills and results in an overdose so the doctors have to get to the house immediately and give her new blood. We can see this in real life as drug overdoses are becoming more common in people from day to day. </p>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<p>In this society created by Ray Bradbury in pages 11, 12 and 13 they mention how people forget relatively important stuff like taking sleeping pills, which can have bad consequences health-wise. After Mildred was healed from these consequences, she didn't seem too concerned at all and absent-minded.</p>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<p>A global issue that both stories looks at is government oppression. In this case Harrison tries to go against by going on TV and declaring himself as the emporer, but in Fahrenheit 451, Claire tries to go against it by walking around, telling people and not going to school. </p>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<ol><li><p>The issues faced by Guy and Mildred - Guy is "unusual" in the society and wants to go against commonly believed ideas (reading books, being friends with Clarisse). Whereas Mildred wants to simply go along with society and doesn't care about anything but TV. Mildred mainly sees Guy as a source of money to pay for the TV parlor, and eventually reveals Guy to the police, showing that their marriage is superficial and Mildred doesn't care about him. Social issue: government control/oppression. Their relationship is affected by technology because Mildred watches TV all the time and doesn't spend much time just with Guy. </p></li><li><p>The mood of the setting is very dull, when Guy is walking down the streets everything is just silent.</p></li><li><p>New social issues: government control using the media/TV/technology. People are distracted by emotions with endless entertainment in the form of TV</p></li></ol>]]></description>

If you're not driving a hundred miles an hour, at a clip where you can't think of any-thing else but danger, then you're playing some game or sitting in some room -- with the four-wall televisor.

         <description><![CDATA[<p>If we see in both stories, Harrison Bergeron and Fahrenheit 451, the government misuse the technology for their own purposes and to oppress the civilians. In Harrison Bergeron, the government oppress that all the civilians ought to be equal by using technology like handicap bags, ear devices, spectacles, etc. against the civilians/people. In Fahrenheit 451, the government use technology like the mechanical hound against the use of books which boils down to the use of technology against the people's/civilians' abilities to learn more.</p>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<p>Both the stories, Fahrenheit 451 and The Pedestrian are similar. In these stories, technology is misused. In the Pedestrian, we can see that the technology such as the robot police car is misused to see walking as a bizarre activity. And the car also takes people for checking up psychologically. Similarly, in Fahrenheit 451, technology is used to suppress the good things like books. </p>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<ol><li><p>p.5: "One time...". Technology is keeping people apart. In this scene Montag reminisces of a time when the power went out and his mother and him had to use a candle. He describes this memory fondly and says he wishes the power hadn't come back on. This shows that technology is keeping families and people apart in Montag's world.</p></li><li><p>p.6-7: People spend so much time watching television and entertaining themselves that they seldom notice the world around them. For example not knowing that the billboards are 200 feet long because they've only seen them through the windows of a moving car.</p></li><li><p>p.21: "No one has time any more for anyone else." </p></li></ol>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<p>On page 55, the student says that he has studied a lot and that Halliday has come off as mentally ill. He has a weird laugh, he has went days and weeks without eating, sleeping, drinking or talking to anyone, and he has spent all his time and life into working for the OASIS. This shows that humans will go through suffering and will become insane to just to grow and earn money.</p>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<p>In page 16, when Montag's wife is making breakfast, a robot makes a piece of toast entirely for her. Even though making toast, is an easy thing, the robot takes the bread out for her, puts the butter on the bread, and gives the plate to her. This means that people are getting lazier and lazier because of technology.</p>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<p>Supression of idenitity due to government control (identity, censorship).  Ideas with characterization, setting, language, and literary devices.  Setting;  driving fast and subway going fast with loud music always playing, this gives the government control over their thoughts and makes them unable to develop who they are as a person, the speed limit them always going fast makes them think about the dangers of the road and doesn't give them time to think about what they want too, the subway should give time for people to socialize and being able to think for themselves but the radio always blasting the same music and the speed of the subway makes it harder for people to not be brainwashed and hypnotized. </p><p>literary devices: similies (comparison)</p><p>characterization: Mildred's character being consumed by technology and not learning effective things however brain washing subjects in school, reduces smartness; makes it easier for government to control them; Mildred opens up the idea to Montag being able to read books; doesn't fully accept the idea and sets off the alarm; shows her character cannot be open minded and think for herself due to not learning these things and being blasted with brainwashing technology. </p><p>Language and setting:  Montag wants people to be able to think for themselves; he wants to show people these ideas; he doesn't want books to be censored due to government control as he wants individuality and be a person for himself, not the same person who doesn't notice the little things and be able to express who they are. He uses his ideas against Mildred and her friendsusing complicated lanaguage, just as his young friend did to show the world that she was her own person and they can be two. He uses similie to show how he is distanced from the ladies in the group and felt closer to his young friend as they shared similar ideas and he also questions who he is. (still wotking on the third idea) focused on Montag's identity. This can be characterization. The midred's can be setting. (technology, school)</p>]]></description>
