F451 guiding questions chapter 1

F1. Describe the society (a fictional America) that Montag lives in. In what ways is it similiar to, but more extreme than, our society?  What signs are there that it is a "dystopia" (the opposite of utopia/ideal society)? Montage lives in a calm place I think when he meant that the houses are "fireproof" I think he meant that there haven't been any fires lately and that the job is getting a little boring and is using crude humor to cheer himself up

2. What makes Clarisse so special?  So different from most people in her society? She's one of those weird and annoying people she likes to get on people's nerves by giving them truths that they don't want to hear.

3. Why do you think the mechanical hound has been programmed to react to Montag?  It's programed to react to Montag because he's the caretaker for the mechanical dog and the programmers want the dog to endure human contact.
