Everyone in their life has experienced difficult situations including broken relationships and emotional hardships. Both Ray Bradbury story “Fahrenheit 451” and Kesha song “Praying” both share similar and different problems they both faced. They also both share human emotion and what human’s do when they have a difficult problem they have to face and they show that it can be difficult to get over a relationship or emotions. They also show how you can get over it and you can learn from what hurt you. You can also bring yourself back up even without no one help.

 

Some similar things that both of these texts share is that they both find a way to move on and say the past is the past. In Kesha’s song it says “I can thank you for how strong I have become” which means that she learned from what hurt her. Kesha proves the theme that if someone’s treating you badly that you can get over it and that you have the power to do it. Fahrenheit 451 also shows that you can move on and get over it. In the book it says “Montag truly loved Mildred but she just wants to commit suicide.”   As a result because all Mildred cared about was killing herself Montag had to learn to get over her and he doesn’t want to be around her. Also in both texts, the characters are both affected with abusive relationships.

 

There are some differences with the theme  too with both of these texts. In Kesha’s song “Praying” Kesha finds happiness after her breakup while Montag struggles to find happiness. An example in “Praying” is “I’m proud of who I am” so after Kesha had her breakup she realized that she’s happy of who she is and don’t need him. In “Fahrenheit 451” Montag had\gets help with his problems while Kesha was by herself when she had her problems. An example in “Fahrenheit 451” is “Montag had Clarisse the whole time and she helped Montag through the problems with Mildred.” So Montag wasn’t by himself like Kesha Montag had somebody to help him. You can tell that Kesha is a really strong person and doesn’t need anybody to help her with her problems.

 

 

In both “Fahrenheit 451” and “Praying” Ray Bradbury and Kesha show that you can get over relationships with or without help. And that you have the strength to overcome emotions and hardships that may come in your way. But both texts have their differences and similarities they both share important themes that you can learn from.

Ray Bradbury’s dystopian novel, “Fahrenheit 451” takes place in the near future. Guy Montag is a fireman that burns books as a living instead of putting out fires. He doesn’t know that burning the books is bad. He meets his neighbor Clarisse and they start a friendship and she helps him out with the books. One lesson the story shares is that “You don’t have to burn books to destroy a culture. Just get people to stop reading them.”

 

From the very beginning when Montag started burning the books he knew that burning books doesn’t hurt or destroy the culture he knew burning the books was a bad thing but the government forced him. As society moves at a faster pace they have to do something with the books. The theme develops throughout the beginning of the book by when Montag starts  to burn the books. He knew that he was doing the wrong thing but didn’t realize it till he met Clarisse. Clarisse showed him how the burning of the books was a bad thing. Bradbury describes how “Beatty forces Montag to burn the house himself’ how he was forced to burn down his house.

 

Since they were burning the books they were trying to make the society make burning books a trend. And having knowledge and ideas is a threat to the government in the book. But the government can better the dumb society. For example “Montag gets a hold of some books and starts to obtain his own opinion about his life.” They also burn books cause they don’t want people to think for themselves. They just burn books so that nobody learns anything. They wanted to keep the society dumb .   Another idea is to keep everything “clean” as not to destroy family morals. Another example that the government didn’t allow books in society is “Someone’s written a book on tobacco and cancer in the lungs? The cigarette people are weeping? Burn the book.”  That’s shows how they really wanted people to stop reading them.

 

By the middle\ end of the story the reader begins to see how burning and not burning  the books is effecting the society and how Montag acts. At the end of the story it says that “all the books are preserved by everyone in a way that cannot be burned or destroyed unless everyone is chased.” In the middle of the book Montag showed more ignorance. In the book it says “Montag stood looking up at the ventilator..” He looked up cause he was nervous and didn’t want them to call him out. And that’s how bad the government wanted to destroy the culture.

 

As the story ends, Montag escapes the city because it was bombed. But throughout the book it showed that it didn’t matter if you burned books or not. You just got to not read to destroy a culture. The government really hated when the society was reading books and getting “smart” the government wanted to have them always done. So if you want to stop something just stop it first.

 

 

 

Fahrenheit 451 is a dystopian novel. We are not sure what time period his book takes place. But the locations of this book is the fire station, Guy Montag house. The book setting seems quite like ours because it has real places like where I live. The environment also seems the same too.

The main character in Fahrenheit 451 is Guy Montag he is a fireman. His job is to destroy the most illegal of commodities which is the printed books along the houses. He doesn’t realize what he is doing is bad till he meets he neighbor Clarisse she shows him that its bad to do that.  Guy Montag is different from me because hes a little weird and different from me.

At  first water pollution didn’t seem like a big deal back when It first started in 1850’s but until later when people started getting diseases from their water they drink. This is what Blackhawk students say  about water pollution In our world today. Kaia an 8th grader says “We should do something about water pollution.” She also says people need to know what they’re doing too environment. Emma another 8th grader at Blackhawk says “I think it’s a good topic to discuss in today’s world’s. Both of what they said sound exactly the same.

Good Evening! “I’m Jesse Wells.” And ‘I’m Bob Herron.’ There has been some shocking news and rumors about uniforms at Blackhawk? Are they true? It all happened around 8:00 this morning. Jimmy has the latest to this shocking story. “Jesse and Bob, sure this is shocking but wait till you hear what thee students say about this.”A student told me that they made this decision too late and is not fair.” When I got to Blackhawk students were saying they are planning to move schools or drop out. And this will effect Blackhawk’s attendance. I talked to Mrs.Oaks and a few of Mr.Hoering 8th grade students.

I’m here with Mrs.Oaks ” Why did you make the decision for Blackhawk to wear uniforms?” she exclaimed that she and the staff thought that students shouldn’t be distracting other students by what they wear. And they don’t have to worry about what people have to say about their outfits. “Well thank you Mrs.Oaks looks like you gotta pass out more uniform papers to students.” This is a student from Mr. Hoering 8th grade class.  Her name is Emma. ” What do you think about this decision?” This decision is so not fair! Like I  just bought new back to school clothes. “Seems like you really don’t like this new decision.”I don’t” Tami replied. Here’s another student his name is Noah. “Okay Noah what do you think about the uniforms?” “I think the uniforms are bull crap. Why do we have to get uniforms this is a public school not a private school he said with anger. “Thank you Noah, we hope that thing will work out.”

As you can see Jessie and bon students hate this new decision to get uniforms at Blackhawk.”Thank you Jimmy for giving us the latest to this story we hope that Blackhawk changes their mind.”Thank you guys.” We will update you guys as soon as we hear something.” Jesse cuts in saying “After the break we will give you Fort Wayne’s top newscast. Bye!”

 

The last book I read was the book breathe. I read this book in 6th grade but I wanted to reread it. I’m still in the beginning of the book but it’s really good. In the beginning it  talks about how jack dies and the rest of  them. When he gets in the house there are many secrets that intrigue him. He moves in with his mother. He can communicate to other ghosts with his asthma.
