1. Write a question about the reading. What are you confused about? If you don't get an answer on your blog, be sure to raise the question in class. Even if you do get an answer, and you think it's a good question with a good answer, bring it up in discussion.
One question that I have is that why does Mildred hate books so much and why is she scared of Montag reading them. Does she fear Montag getting to know about people that never existed.
B. How will books get us out of "the cave?" What is the cave and how will books get us out of it?
A: I think that basically what the cave reffers to is the state of not being aware of what is happening in the world and not knowing what happened then. I think that the books have the key to getting out of the cave because they have information that the firemen are trying to get rid of by burning the books. The books could tell the people what happened when the book was being written in their own time. The firemen basically try to keep the people in "the cave".
