Why was the hound sniffing around Montag's place?
-
Beatty had sent it as a warning because he knew Montag had some books
-
The hound would go for a walk every day by Montag's crib
-
It got lost and was looking its way back home
Correct Answer
A. Beatty had sent it as a warning because he knew Montag had some booksExplanation
Beatty sent the hound as a warning because he was aware that Montag had books. This suggests that Beatty, who is a part of the oppressive society in the novel, is suspicious of Montag's activities and wants to intimidate him. The hound, being a mechanical creature programmed to hunt down and destroy illegal books, serves as a symbol of the government's control and surveillance over its citizens. Therefore, Beatty's decision to send the hound to Montag's place reinforces the theme of censorship and the suppression of knowledge in the dystopian society depicted in the book.Rate this question:
