About what I thought about
Betty Montag Faber and Mildred
Betty:
He is a man that really knowledgeable, he always
says something that makes
Montag
confuse. In the novel after the firemen burn the
books and the old lady some
firemen
remember
some
poem
but
can
’
t
remember
them
clearly.
However,
Betty
knows
that
even
if
he
didn
’
t
read
that
poem
book
at
all.
That
means
Betty
really
knows
a
lot
about
the
books.
So,
if
Betty
reads
so
much
about
the
books,
why
he
became a fireman? At first, I think
that Betty knows a lot but he
doesn
’
t like that. Just
some students can speak English, but
they prefer to speak Chinese. But after I finish
part three I got hat Betty really love
to read books when he was young. And he always
read books in the library. When people
start to burn books, his heart was broken, so
the love to the books became hate. He
signed up to became a fireman zealously. And
every time burn the books he is
actively .He does that because he want to steal
some
books. So it means he is not a
person that really incorrigible. He is a person
that wants
to save himself from damage
when he was young .He told a lie, however, if a
lie keep
such a long time, the people
who tell the lie may believe the lie. So Betty
became a
real fireman that really
knowledgeable. However, there must remain
something in the
person that has been
read books. So Betty is miserable, he know that
what he do is
incorrect, but he still
do that ,that is worse than the other person that
don
’
t know what
they do is terrible. In the part three,
he died, because he wanted to die. He
can
’
t stand
that
kind of life that always wears a mask. If a man
lives in such a bad state of mind,
died
may a good way to liberation.
Montag: Montag is not the same as
Betty. Betty is a man that loves to read before he
starts to work as a fireman. However,
at first, Montag is a person that has two parts:
one is love to burn books, he think
burn books is a good thing to have fun .On the
other hand, he met Faber at a park
before, know that he has books but never makes it
public. Also, some one said that he hid
some books at home that is a point that he is
not the same as other fireman, however,
I don
’
t think so. Every one
is curious about
something that he
doesn’t
know but always deal
with. So maybe other firemen steal
some
books and read them as well, just after they read
it, they don
’
t think books
are
very
interesting
and
give
up.
The
difference
between
Montag
and
other
firemen
is
Montag can listen to the
people, care about others. He is a man that lives
with heart.
He
cares
about
the
people
who
love
him
and
who
he
love.
He
is
the
man
that
can
listen
other
’
s advice and opinion.
That
’
s why he changes
himself after he met Clarisse.
In this
novel, that
’
s a good
character, however, if we just simply listen to
others, never
consider
in
our
own
mind,
is
not
good,
we
may
become
a
cats
paw.
In
this
novel,
Montag
lost
his
family,
his
house
because
he
listen
to
Clarisse,
in
our
opinion,
he
become a good person that know what is
right, but in the world of the novel, he lose
too much about the change to what is
right.
Faber: Faber is a person that loves to
read books. In my opinion, he is the cleverest
