Respond to 2 of the 5 questions listed below. Follow the same instructions from the last chapter's blog.
1- Reread the account of Liberty 5-3000. What character traits are revealed in this brief description?
2-Of the whole range of feelings possible to man (joy, excitement, anger, embarrassment, etc.), why is fear the prevalent emotion in this society?
3-Using descriptions from the text, contrast Equality with the rest of the men living in this society.
4-Equality says “a word steals into our mind, as we look upon our brothers”. What is that word and why would that be the word he thinks of?
5-Explain the following terms: A. The Great Truth B. the Unmentionable Times C. the Uncharted Forest D. the Evil Ones E. the Great Rebirth
I done questions 2 and 5 for chapter 2, I will first give number 2.
ReplyDeleteThe reason fear is the prevalent emotion is because of the rules and council. Most of the rules restrict people from thougths and different emotions than other fellow men. If the people are discovered acting differenet, they are to be killed. That is the reason why fear is the prevalent emotion.
you forgot number 5
Deletei agree on your comment to number two. I think fear is definatly a domminant emmotion because all men in this book are afraid to defy the concil
Delete1.Liberty 5-3000 is described more in depth than anyone else. She is described as blonde, thin, and powerful. She has an auroa about her that draws equality's attention.
ReplyDelete3. Equality has characteristics of curiosity which ohter men do not have. The other men equality talks about cry in their sleep. Ohter scream and shake in their sleep and doctors cannot help them.
Those are some nice descriptions man.
DeleteColby I agree to what you say, but you mispelled other. I also agree to what you say about Equality.
DeleteBradlely we needth not point out other peoples flaws, rather than help them fix it

2- Fear is what has been used since the dawn of time to get what we want. We use fear to controle people. All goverments on earth have laws that also have a precurssion if you disobey these laws, this is what people are scared of.
ReplyDelete5- A.The idea that no one man is important. B.The times when technology was abundent and everyone said "I". C.A forest the government doesnt want anyone to go into, they want to keep a leash on everyone. D.The term used to describe people who do not do as the governmet sais. E.The time when all technology disapeared and people said "we".
OK i forgot #5 so here it is. The Unmentionable times, the time before everyone was equal. It would be like waht we live in today. THe council believes everyone should act, think and do what everyone else does. That si the reason it is called unmentionable.
ReplyDelete1. She was a woman with dark, glowing eyes. She had golden hair and was 17 years old. They described her as if she was the most beautiful girl they had
ReplyDeleteever seen.
2. Everybody feels fear because they live in a very strict world. There are many laws that can be broken very easily. I also think the government uses fear to scare the people into doing what they want them to do.
Great writing!
DeleteLoved this!
DeleteNice descriptions!!!

ReplyDelete1. Some of the traits Liberty 5-3000 carries are, their body is straight and thin as a blade of an iron. Their eyes were dark, hard and glowing.
ReplyDelete5. The unmentionable times. It would be similar to how we live today. The government of this place thinks everyone should be created equal. Thats why they have to use plural pronouns not personal pronouns.
Adriana that is really good writing!
DeleteGreat writing
DeleteYour answer's are really good and I believe in the detail in your writing.
Delete3. Equality is different. He stands out from the crowd. He doesn't want to be different, he just is. He thinks about the past, himself, and Liberty. Which he is not supposed to think like that.
ReplyDelete2. Because Fear is the leader in the society. Fear of the council, Fear of the Truth, Fear of everything. Fear is what keeps the people in line.
I agree with what you said about Equality being different.
Delete1. Liberty 5-3000 is described more than anyone else, she is described by blond hair and draws attention to equality with her beauty.
ReplyDelete2. Fear is the prevalent emotion because everybody fears in the council. They have strict rules and severe punishment for anyone who breaks the law. This makes it easy for them to control the society.
Very good job mikey, I agree with every point you made!
Delete1. Liberty 5-3000 was skinny bug at the same time strong, she had beautiful long golden hair. She was golden in the sunlight that's why Equality calls her the " Golden one".
ReplyDelete2. Equality was different from everyone of his brothers. He was different because he didn't want to be the same as everyone of his brothers.
1. Described as a straight body and thin as a blade or iron. Dark eyes that are hard and glowing with no fear, kindness or guilt, and hair as golden as the sun.
ReplyDelete3. Equality thinks more of himself and feels that he has a purpose and doesn't want to live the life he's living now. He wants to be his own person.
2. Of all the emotions men can feel I think fear is the most prevalent emotion because the world they live in is a world where everybody is equal and, that if they do something wrong they will be frowned upon.
ReplyDelete4. This sacred word would probably have to be, "I."
I also think that to Britney but I think they are all scared but just because they are equal but that they're all scared of the Council
Delete2) The mood in chapter 2 and in the book is fear, this is because everyone is scared of the Council. They were scared of the Council because if you didn't listen to the Council they might send you to the Palace of Corrective Detention, where they would be wipe or they might be killed in the town square.
ReplyDelete5) The Unmentionable Times is like are time now, like how we have cars and TV. The Unmentionable Times was the time before the Great Rebirth. The Great Rebirth was when the Council got rid of all the "things" that were making are world "Evil." The Great Rebirth made the world good again and made EVERYONE equal.
2) fear is obviously the prevalent form of emotions in this passage, it is relevant to the fact that everyone is afraid of the council therefore , fear is the prevalent emotion in this form of literature in this passage.
ReplyDelete1) The description of the character Liberty-3000 is very beautiful (not masculine-inside joke) with a very vivid description on how equality likes her
You hit the jackpot with this post.
DeleteCade these are very good answers.
Delete1)They describe her as a blonde, dark eyes, body was straight, and that their looks had no fear, guilt, and no kindness.
ReplyDelete3)Equality is different from the other men because he has curiosity unlike them. But also he wants to be free and try's to advance their technology.
