    4. 2) Fear is prevalent in this society because everyone has to do what they are told and they are probably scared of making a mistake. If they disobey any of the rules, they will be sent to a detention.

  6. Q1: Equality was different than the rest of the men in the anthem because he would do what he wanted to whenever he wanted to do it. For example, in this chapter he went against the rules and not only did he acknowledge that there was women in the fields, but he even talked to one and that one just happened to be Liberty 5-3000.

    Q2: Maybe its because they were forced to fear. Their lives were filled with fear because if they didn't do their job properly, if they thought forbidden thoughts, or if they didn't live within the guide-lines that were set beforehand, they were punished.
