Her death prompted him to get serious about the things that were wrong with his world, for him to go ahead and steal books from the fires, and read them openly. He went as far as to get into contact an old professor, and learn from him what actions he should take to stop all of this madness. Montag eventually loses it, and reads aloud to Mildred’s friends in an attempt to make them realize their unhappiness, and try to have an impact on them like Clarisse had on him. In the end, an alarm is called on Montag’s house to burn the books he stole. “Well,” said Beatty, “now you did it.
Mildred said, when Montag was reading books, “Beatty, he’ll come in, and burn us and the books!” (Bradbury, 68). By Mildred saying that Beatty would burn his co-worker, and friend, with his wife, over a book, is very inhumane. Although books are illegal, taking a torch to someone is not a fair way to punish a person. Beatty is even more inhumane and cruel when he lights the match, and starts the fire to the woman with all her books. Beatty had no problem with burning the old woman, and her precious books, because he ignited the flame.
The author is strong on describing an imagery that makes you imagine the scene in particularized words. It shows that he, the author, wants his reader to feel like their actually seeing the setting of the story. “As happens sometimes, a moment settled and hovered and remained for much more than a moment. And sound stopped and movement stopped for much, much more than a moment.”-John Steinbeck “Mrs. Lincoln hovered over her husband.” The author placed some primary sources in the book such as article on a newspaper and a picture with it.
However, I didn’t see comments regarding the continuum of care in the organization or resource options. I would like to have seen the use of headings to help in the readability and flow of the paper, which was mentioned in your week two paper. The introduction did not preview all the major points of the paper for the reader. Remember, the major points of the introduction should match the assignment. Also, the conclusion also did not review all the major points of the paper for the reader.
When this happens, he continues, they are given a 24-hour respite to come to their senses and burn the book before their coworkers must do so for them. Montag becomes paranoid that Beatty knows that he has stolen not only one, but nearly 20 books over the course of his career. He feels compelled to tell Millie his secret and shows her his collection. Millie panics, insisting that they burn the books. Before the issue is resolved, someone comes to the door, prompting terror in both Montag and Millie.

When considering author’s purposes, only three reasons exist: to persuade, to inform, or to entertain.
