I'm assuming this is Fahrenheit 451

In the book, firefighters ironically destroy and burn things rather than save and put out fire like we do. Also, technology is much more prevalent in this story. Mildred's life revolves around technology (which is even more important to her than Montag). This "society" is Bradbury's prediction of how technology will change the world. Also, books are illegal.

Some similar things are the dependence on technology and the crime system (Montag is a criminal at the end of the book, and he has to live in hiding.)

Describe ways we can reduce pollution for water sources (at least 8 ways)! (5-8 sentences)

Answer:

Pick up litter and throw it away in a garbage can.
Blow or sweep fertilizer back onto the grass if it gets onto paved areas. Don't put fertilizer on the grass right before it rains. The chemicals will wash into storm drains and waterways.
Mulch or compost grass or yard waste. Or, leave it in your yard if you can't compost. Don't blow leaves into the street. This clogs and damages storm drains.
Wash your car or outdoor equipment where it can flow to a gravel or grassed area instead of a street.
Don't pour your motor oil down the storm drain. Take it to the nearest auto parts store. This is free!
Never clean up a spill by hosing it into a storm drain. Use dry methods like placing kitty litter, sand, or another absorbent on the spill. Once the liquid becomes solid - sweep it up and throw it in a garbage can.

Hope this helps!! :D

In Sherlock Holmes, what suggests that Watson has an expert in understanding of the habits of Holmes?

sergejj [24]

Answer:

“To me, who knew his every mood and habit, his attitude and manner told their own story. He was at work again.” (paragraph 1)

“His manner was not effusive. It seldom was; but he was glad, I think, to see me.” (paragraph 2)

Explanation:

The two lines above show that Watson had become an expert in studying Holmes. In the first, Watson himself, admits that he knows every mood and habit of Holmes and how they told their own stories. He was able to deduce from them that Holmes was working again.

In the second line, Watson was able to deduce that Holmes was glad to see him even though his manner was not revealing this.
