1. Why did the men laugh when one told Montag not to judge a book by its cover?
Cause its a cliché that's been used countless times in history so he used it as a way of a joke I suppose.
2. Why does Montag still care about Mildred? What does the author want us to know about this character?
He has grown even more human he used to follow orders like a animal now he decides for himself and has sympathy for others cause he is human.
3. How do the hands of Granger's grandfather and Mildred symbolize these characters?
They have meaning like there hand represent the very thing they are also know as synecdoche.
4. How does Granger's remembrance of his grandfather parallel Faber's telling Montag that it wasn't the books that were important, but what was in the books?
Because the grandfather did things other didn't do and left meaning in those activities he enjoyed while Faber's explanation of books is that there was meaning within books. Both are right.
5. Why (on p.151) is three seconds "all of the time in history"? He probably put that as a way of representing how long the city lived for only 3 seconds before they were wiped out.
6. What is the significance of the Phoenix? It's a immortal mythical creature that resurrects which shows the cycle of life of human beings when they burn they rise again like a phoenix.
7. After the bombing, the men get up, prepare breakfast, put out the fire, and rise to move on. Montag realizes they are following him, and he steps aside to let Granger lead, but Granger just looks at him and nods him on. What is the significance of this scene? How has Montag grown since the beginning of the book? He has grown more mature I would say he wants someone who willing to carry the group well he himself knows he is capable but doesn't want to I suppose or he has doubt as being a leader.
