GUIDING QUESTIONS pp. 133-147

1)The significance of the glass of milk, the apple, and the pear represents that Montag has gone through a change in which how he views or sees the world in a different perspective.

2)Montag thought he saw the Mechanical Hound and reached his breaking point but what he actually saw was " a billion leaves on land " and the empty, dry, warm dust on the field that he found himself into going in the direction if his way to find a new home.

3) The reason why this is ironic when Montag sees that fire was that because it was not his fire but the fire of the sun and lights up the world and the moon. He then talks about that the sun burns day after day and it is running against time and that we don't burn but we still waste time and never think about what we are doing now.

4) Granger is the leader of his associates and he wrote a book called The Fingers in the Glove; the Proper Relationship between the Individual and Society. He struck a fireman when he came to burn his library years ago. His associates are Fred Clement, a former occupant of the Thomas Hardy chair at Cambridge before it became an Atomic Engineering School. Dr.Sommons from U.C.L.A is a specialist in Ortega y Gasset. Professor West did ethics. Reverend Padover gave a few lectures 13years ago.

5) The show that Granger was watching on his small TV with the rest of the people there was the chase of Montag. The police didn't want to say that they lost Montag so they decide to fake it and caught an old innocent man that was just standing there going for a walk. But the TV cameras blurred his face so the town people didn't see his face.

6) What Granger means when he says "We all made the right kind of mistakes" is that all of them had to do what they had to do to be safe because they all done something that they didn't want to do. Like Montag, he killed Beatty because he had to or he would have been in jail fo the rest of his life.
