Fahrenheit 451 help? - MusicLover101 - 04-18-2014 08:27 AM
I need help answering these questions that I don't know the answers to on a Fahrenheit 451 study guide! THANK YOU! best answer gets 10 points!
1. What religion would Montag be a part of if he were in modern day society?
2. What political party would Montag be a part of if he were in modern day society?
3. What music would Montag listen to if he were part of modern day society?
4. List Guy Montag's (known) family.
5. Groups that Montag may join?
(The assignment is to make Montag a fake Facebook page using a set of questions if he were a part of our society.)

With this kind of question there IS no "right" answer. They are designed to make you think about the characters - specifically Montag - so that you get a broader view of him.
Assuming you've actually read the book - and if you haven't, you're wasting everyone's time, especially your own - you must have some idea about Montag's character, beliefs, preferences etc. Based on your own ideas about him, you answer the questions the way YOU think would work for him.
Your teacher is interested not in you "getting it right" but in how you support your answers. If you say "Montag would listen to Lady Gaga" then you have to be able to say WHY you think that. If you have a view about which political party he might join, you have to be able to argue for that opinion.
None of this is rocket science. Just read the book again, make a few notes as you go along with these questions in mind, then think about them and find your own answers.
