Q. Make a list of the descriptive words in that scene – minimum of 3, but you should be able to find a lot. & Write a short paragraph of why you think that scene and the words Bradbury used were effective in representing fear. This is like the assignment from last night expect with Bradbury.
A. I chose the scene where Montag and the firemen were burning down the woman's house. After reading this passage, I was amazed. I could feel the fear of the woman and how she knew that was the day she was going to die. Some of the quotes I like that showed this fear were “Montag had hidden a book under his arm, as he watched a woman get burned alive”. I liked this quote in general but not the meaning because that’s just messed up. How could anyone just stand there watching someone just burn to death? Well, I liked the descriptive words used in this because like I said, it gives a strong mental picture. This and many other within this passage brought up mostly hatred and fear.

Hii Johnny! :)
I agree, I had also chosen this section of the book for this blog assignment. I really liked how the author was able to create a mental picture in my mind by all the strong adjectives and verbs. Good job! -----------> Lookieeeee!
