Bradbury is trying to show how this society is constantly bombarded with media. In this case, it's advertisements pounding them into a passive state. No one on the train is talking or interacting. They are just sitting listening to the advertisement like they are being brainwashed into buying denham's dentifrice. In contrast to this Montag is trying to read a passage from the Bible about letting go of material things (including Denham's dentifrice). This juxtaposition between the natural world and materialism further shows how society is so wrapped up in media that they are unaware of the world around them.

aniked [119]

Answer:

instead of saying Sparrow and Liam exchanged stairs across the library you could instead try saying Liam and Sparrows eyes met from across the room or across the library, or not. I think your story's fine, if you want to make it a few more sentence longer then maybe you can put like a little backstory to why Liam and Sparrow are fighting or not it's your story I'm just you know saying maybe if you want a few more sentences it's something to put.
