Fahrenheit 451 Pg. 21-40

I wasn't really confused by any parts during this section of the book. The ones that i was midly confused about were gone over during our discussion.

I think that their was alot of truth behind saying the Clairesse was alot more mature than his wife for many reasons. First of all Clairesse notices and pays much more fine detail to her surroundings. She understands that the world is more than black and white and asks questions. These questions are exactly what the government doesn't want. They want people to be mindless and obiediant by believing and applying everything that they're told into what they percieve as the truth. I think that Bradburry makes the contrast between the two because he wants to show one definition of an ordinary citizen who believes what they are told. And one (Clairesse) who looks more deeply into a subject and uses what little resources are left (her uncle) to be an independent thinker.
