F451Guiding questions ch1

 1.Montag lives in a society where people can't ask questions or look for information. It's better for people not to think for themselves. This is similar to our society because like for example student shows go to school to learn but they don't learn everything just what the teacher want or because what they need to teach the important stuff. We don't have enough time to learn every single little thing.The signs that this is a dystonia society is that every person does not benefit from things they learn for example with students there are some students that learn quickly and there are others that don't learn very well and need more help and sometimes the teachers don't even care. Then students drop out and become bad people.

2. What made Clarissa so special was that she was 17 and saw life so different also she wasn't scared of the things ahead of her in life. She would ask why and how did things happened.Two things she had was curiosity and they she could approach a person and make a new friend.the author introduces montag at this time of his life when he encounters Clarisse and confronts Mildred because the author wants the readers to learn more about montag and how his life is.
3.the author introduces the character of clarisse before Mildred because Mildred represents what is wrong in Montag's life that he is ignorant of the world he is helping to create. Clarisse introduces him to independent thought. Mildred has had little impact on causing change in Montag. Clarisse is a voice, the first real and definitive voice that represents how things should be for Montag.
4.all the houses are all fireproof in this society because it's for the safety of the people and becasue the fireman's job is to burn books they burn the books but the buildings didn't burn. the job of burning were given to the fireman since books were banned and their jobs were unnecessary.
5.Mildred needed emergency service because montag found out that she was in a self induced coma. she took a whole bottle of sleeping pills and the two paramedics used a machine to make her better
6.The mechanical hound is a machine that is used to hunt down and kill people who have in some way violated the laws of the society. Its purpose in the society is to kill people who break the laws. 
7. To clarisse talking to people, being around them, getting to know them, and asking questions about the world to start good discussions. So, because she doesn't behave the way that all of the other teenagers behave, she is considered anti-social. She actually enjoys thinking, and not going around smashing things up and never really talking to the people you are doing the smashing with. So, that is why she is considered anti-social
8.Mildred and Montag hardly know each other, and are not in love with each other. Mildred's focus is on the "parlor family" and does not focus on Montag. They sleep in separate twin beds in the same room, but do not really communicate with each other. They talk to each other, but there is no deep communication as there is when Montag meets Clarisse. It is also very evident that Mildred only cares for herself when she sounds the alarm on her own husband for having books in the house and reading poetry to her and her friends
13. Montag tells mildred that he is sick, and asks her to call Captain Beatty. When Beatty arrives mildred refuses to tell him Montag is sick. Beatty explains all of this to Montag in the hopes that he will understand that there is nothing in books worth keeping. He wants Montag to not make the mistake of throwing his life away. He knows that Montag might choose books, and perhaps feels that he already did. Maybe he does not care. Either way, he knows that he has done his job

14. in my opinion i think that the book does violate the idea that everyone is equal because if everyone was equal everything would be boring and every person would act the same. 

15. Montag feels "fat" because his knowledge of and interest in books is a great burden. The burden is so great that it is even effecting him physically; he feels uncomfortable in his body, and he feels heavier.
