Fahrenheit

What two things make Montag realize that he much change his life?

• A woman chooses to burn with her books and Clarisse dies

• A woman refuses to give up her books and Clarisse moves away

• A neighbor reports Clarisse's books and Clarisse kills herself

• His wife betrays him and Clarisse is there to comfort him

Why does Montag reach out to Faber the first time?

• Montag is confused by the books he stole, and he needs a teacher.

• Faber is an English Professor, and Montag wants to learn how to become a Professor as well.

• Montag finds the phone number Faber gave him and is curious if he is still alive.

Why didn't Faber stand up and protest when the first book burnings began?

• He agreed with the book burnings.

• He didn't know they were happening until it was too late. 

• He did, but they put him in jail, so now he is quiet about it. 

• He was too scared to stand up.

What does Faber say about the physical books?

• They are not what is important; it is what is stated in books where the true power lies.

• Without the actual book binding itself, all the words in books are useless. 

• There is nothing important about books or what they have hidden within.

• Never judge a book by its cover.
