Answer: "Her lips were as red as roses in the spring"

Answer:
The irony is in the fact that both the lion and the tiger end up doing exactly the opposite of what they intended.
Explanation:
Hi. From the context of your question, we can see that you are referring to “The Cowardly Lion and Hungry Tiger,” which was written by L. Frank Baum. In this story we meet a lion who leaves its habitat determined to tear apart the first person it meets. In the same story, we see a tiger, which leaves its habitat determined to eat the first human baby it targets in front of it. The ironic thing is that when they find what they want they do completely different things.
The lion finds a woman lying on the ground and instead of tearing her to pieces, it lifts the woman and takes her home very gently and safely. The tiger, upon finding a baby on the ground, does not devour the baby, but takes it very gently to its mother, who is the woman the lion helped.
This question is about "Fahrenheit 451".
Answer and Explanation:
Clarisse's point of view shows that the current world as well as the world of Bradbury is full of people who allow themselves to be alienated by useless television programs, are blinded by the media and cannot see beyond what is shown to them. However, there are differences between these two worlds, since in the current world we are free to refuse this type of alienation and to improve ourselves in studies, readings, family interaction and our aggrandizement.
Based on this, I believe that Bradbury wants to show how important it is that we consume television media in a controlled manner, without letting it take away what is most important to us, our rationality.
On the roof of Bradbury, Clarisse was raised in a family that encourages reading and reasoning, socializing and conversation, rejecting alienation from TV. This gives Clarissa the perception and the power to search for her own concepts, values and beliefs.
