auditory imagery - correct answers what kind of imagery (auditory, gustatory, olfactory, tactile, visual): "There was a great hiss like a great mouthful of spittle banging a red hot stove" allusion - correct answers figurative language: [N]ow you did it. Old Montag wanted to fly near the sun and now that he's burnt his damn wings, he wonders why." He seems to know much about myths, however he advocates burning books and not reading. - correct answers What is strange about Beatty saying, "[N]ow you did it. Old Montag wanted to fly near the un and now that he's burnt his damn wings, he wonders why." He believes that a man who loses his wife should feel sad and should feel a loss in his heart. He does NOT think that time heals all wounds and understands that he should feel sad about losing his wife for a LONG time. He does not understand why he doesn't have strong feelings about missing his wife. - correct answers What does Montag MEAN when he says, "It's strange. I don't miss her. It's strange. I don't feel much of anything. Even if she dies, I realized a moment ago, I don't think I'll feel sad. It isn't right. Something must be wrong with me." When he jumps into the river, it is symbolic, like he is being baptized. Montag transforms from a mindless person into a thoughtful person. The act of discarding his old clothing shows how Montag is excited about entering a new society as a new person. - correct answers What does this passage about Montag's escape from the city show: "Then he dressed in Faber's old clothes and shoes. He tossed his own clothing into the river and watched it swept away . . . He walked out in the river . . . and he was swept away in the dark . . He felt as if he had left a stage behind and many actors. He felt as if he had left the great seance and all the murmuring ghosts. He was moving from an unreality that was frightening into a reality that was unreal because it was new." visual imagery - correct answers imagery (visual/tacticle/auditory/olfactory): The police helicopters were rising so far awy that it seems someone had blown the gray head off a dry dandelion flower" 139 - correct answers The word HAND is used how many times throughout the novel At the end of the novel, it is a restatement of how important mankind's hands are. A concept that is present throughout he novel is how man's work on earth is measured by what his hands have accomplished. - correct answers Why is the word HAND used so often in the novel, especially when Granger says, "Everyone must leave something behind when he dies . . .A child or a book or a painting or a house or a wall built or a pair of shoes made. Or a garden planted. Something your hand touched someway so your soul has somewhere to go when you die, and when people look at that tree or that flower you planted, you're there. It doesn't matter what you do,' he said, 'so long as you change something from the way it was before your touched it into something that's like you after you take your hands away." a comparison of two unlike things that continues longer than just one sentence - correct answers Extended metaphor the burning of Montag's house is compared to the entertainment of a circus - correct answers What is Bradbury comparing in the extended metaphor that runs throughout the third part of the book? gustatory imagery - correct answers Imagery (visual/tactile/gustatory/olfactory): "His mouth was sucked dry from running. His throat tasted of bloody iron." visual and simile - correct answers what imagery AND figurative language: "The books leapt and danced like roasted birds, their wings of blaze with red and yellow feathers" He is finally seeing how pointless his wife's life has been. He is thinking about how his wife did nothing for her humanity. - correct answers What does Montag MEAN when he says this about Mildred, "I think of her hands but I don't see them doing anything at all. They just hang there at her sides or they lay there on her lap or there's a cigarette in them, but that's all." Captain Beatty - correct answers Who says this: "What is fire? It's a mystery. Scientists give us gobbledygook about friction and molecules. But they don't really know. Its real beauty is that it destroys responsibility and consequences. A problem gets too burdensome, then into the furnace with it." He belies the best way to deal with a problem is to destroy anything associated with the problem, making it go away. HE believes people should not have to deal with weighty or stressful issue. - correct answers What does Beatty mean in his final speech about fire Mildred - correct answers Who says this, "Poor family, poor family, oh everything gone, everything, everything gone now." She mourns more for her burned televisions than the fact that her husband is wanted by authorities. She does not know what true family is. She is lost now that her televisions are gone because her life and her thoughts revolved around television. - correct answers What does Mildred show when she says, "Poor family, poor family, oh everything gone, everything, everything gone now." tactile imagery & metaphors - correct answers imagery AND figurative language: "The pains were spikes driven in the kneecaps and then only darning needs and the only common ordinary safety pins, and after he had shacked up along fifty more hops and jumps, filling his hand with slivers from the board fence, the prickling was like someone blowing a spray of scalding water on that leg." He is making an allusion to Christ. Even though Beatty knows literature, he thinks mankind can be happy without it. - correct answers What does it mean when Beatty says, "Give a man a few lines of verse and he thinks he's the Lord of Creation. You think you can walk on water with your books. Well, the world can get by just fine without them." right before Montag kills him - correct answers When did Beatty say, "Give a man a few lines of verse and he thinks he's the Lord of Creation." It shows how bad society has become. Bradbury has portrayed an ailing, weak society so well that the reader does not mourn for society when it is destroyed. `` - correct answers When thinking about how Montag was almost killed by a group of young people in a car as he crossed the street, what does it show He pompously is attacking Montag's lack of book knowledge by showing him that he knows more than Montag about literature. He uses the actual line from Shakespeare's play "Julius Caesar" to call out Montag saying that he is not scared of Montag. - correct answers Why is it significant when Beatty says, "Well, that's one way to get an audience. Hold a gun on a man and force him to listen to your speech. Speech away. What'll it be this time? Why don't you belch Shakespeare at me, you fumbling snot? 'There is no terror, Cassius, in your threats, for I am arm'd so strong in honesty that they pass me as an idle wind, which I respect not! Go ahead now, you second-hand litterateur, pull the trigger." visual - correct answers imagery (auditory/gustatory/visual/olfactory): "Montag caught it [the Mechanical Hound} with a bloom of fire, a single wonderous blossom that curled in petals of yellow and blue and orange about the metal dog, clad it in a new covering as it slammed into Montag and threw him ten feet back against the bole of at tree, taking the flame gun with him." Granger - correct answers Who said this after the city has been destroyed by war: "And someday we'll remember so much that we'll build the biggest ******* steamshovel in history and dig the biggest grave of all time and shove war in and cover it up. Come on now, we're going to go build a mirror factory first and put out nothing but mirrors for the next year and take along look in them." Using the mirrors is symbolic to be able to look back upon oneself and make improvements without committing past mistakes again. The mirrors symbolize self-understanding. It emphasizes how important it is for man to be introspective so he can examine his own emotional and mental processes. - correct answers Why did Granger say he's "going to go build a mirror factory first and put out nothing but mirrors for the next y
