STUDY THE SETTING IN WHICH MILDRED IS INTRODUCED TO US FOR THE FIRST TIME. __WHAT__ IMPRESSION DOES IT PRODUCE AND __WHY__?
 * MILDRED MONTAG**

1) This example is unlike a typical married couple, who share a single bed, which symbolizes the unity and togetherness of the couple. Thus, it shows how apart Guy is from his wife, regardless of the fact they are husband and wife.
 * Point:** Mildred and Guy are not a affectionate or loving couple.
 * Evidence:** "Seperate, and therfore cold bed,"
 * Elaboration:** The quote suggests that Mildred and her husband, Guy, sleep on two seperate beds.

__WHAT__ TWO EFFECTS DOES MILDRED HAVE ON MONTAG?

1) The music Mildred was listening to, was compared to them, which shows how irritated Guy Montag was towards mildred's music.
 * Point:** She irritates Guy Montag at certain points of time.
 * Evidence:** Montag, in the story, was said to have been irritated by a "wasp" and "mosquito".
 * Elaboration:** The "wasp" and "mosquito" are insects that are irritating and make irritating sounds.
