Fahrenheit 451 Descriptive Writing 2/6

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. Some descriptive words were :

>empty

>roar

>bombarded

>fervor

>insanity

>mindlessness

I chose these words because they really stood out for me. They were very descriptive. I also chose these words because they were in the climax for this scene. Montag had hidden a book under his arm, as he watched a woman get burned alive. I think the author had really put thought into describing what was happening. He went into alot of detail to let the reader feel like they were in the book. Bradbury had also represented alot of fear in this part of the book because Montag had hidden that book. & probably while he saw that woman get burned, he could probably imagine himself in that postition. He was probably thinking about the consequences that he could go through, what could happened to him now that he made that decision to steal that book.
