1) In the scene where Mildred and Montag read books together, their separate reactions are that Montage is more interested than she is, because she'd rather watch television because she feels like books aren't "alive".
2) The effect throughout sections 1 and 2 of the bombers flying over is suspense. It also shows us that the society is involved in some sort of crisis, but the people ignore the bombers.
3) Professor Faber is a Philosopher who Montag goes to for help.
4) Montag reacts by outbursting in the subway because he realizes that the society he lives in does not think on their own, but is just bombarded by shows and advertisements .
5) The argument that Faber makes for books is that it's not just the books themselves that are important, but what's in the books.
6) The "small green metal object" is the green bullet that goes in Montags ear so that Faber can talk to him whenever and wherever. It allows Faber to listen in on the conversations that Montag has.
7) The white clown show, leads me to believe that the television programing in this society, is meant to show the society of people in the book to be mindless people, who are easily amused. I think Bradbury is showing us that the people in the books society don't think on their own and are easily distracted just like little kids.
8) Mrs Phelps cries when Montag reads "Dover Beach" because she hears emotion in his words. The society that they live in, they say literature is harmful.
9) Montags destination at the end of section 2 is into the wilderness because he can no longer remain in the city after killing Beatty. Mildred had turned in Montag, and Beatty and the other firefighters came to his house but Montag turned the hose onto them .
