The narrator spoke in first person. Yes, the author used I during this story. For example: "I did not dare to go back towards the pit, but I felt a passionate longing to peer into it. I began walking, therefore, in a big curve, seeking some point of vantage and continually looking at the sand heaps that hid these new-comers to our earth".
9. The first person narrator is a major character. I say the narrator is a major character because the narrator is heard from throughout the whole story.
10. There isn't no omniscient narrator. I say there is no omniscient narrator because there narrator of the story stays in first person the whole story.
11. No, there is no viewpoint character. I say this because throughout the story the narrator stays in the first person viewpoint. For example: "but afterwards I learned that Ogilvy, Stent, and Henderson were with others in this attempt at communication". and this was later on in the story.
12. No, the view doesn't change in this story. For example: "I stood staring, not as yet realising that this was death leaping from man to man in that little distant crowd. All I felt was that it was something very strange" and this is further down in the
53. The chapter is told centrally in the third person omniscient point of view, providing various insight on differing characters such as Jimmy Cross, Norman Bowker, Mitchell Sanders, a juvenile trooper, and Azar.

12. If you were the author, would you have ended the story in a different way? Why? How so?
There are a few minor characters in the story. There’s Clarisse and there are the firemen. The firemen are only mentioned to give you a better perspective of their world. They are very obedient and don’t seem to have minds of their own. Their personalities are not shown and they don’t really play a significant role in the novel. Clarisse, however, is a big player. She is the reason that Montag decides to quit and print books instead. She is used to get things going and ignite the rebellion, but she is soon killed off. So, she doesn’t have a big enough role to be considered a major character. Most of the minor character4s are there to show contrast with some major characters. This way, you have a better insight as to who they really are.
3. The novel represents the world and its inhabitants on a miniscule level, by conveying the differences between the characters and how they act towards one another.

Plot Structure – I felt that most of the exposition took place in the beginning of the first page. For the rest of the story there was mostly rising action.

First Person is when the author chooses one character to tell the story. You will often see the words, “I,” and “me,” through out. The narrator will most likely be in the middle of the action, or telling the story from a past perspective.
