THE PEDESTRIAN "The Pedestrian" by Ray Bradbury, 1951
BACKGROUND: Written in 1951, Bradbury's story is a cautionary tale against society's growing infatuation
with television and electronics. It warns that society, similar to the sidewalk, is sure to crumble
without human interactions to keep it whole. In 'The Pedestrian' by Ray Bradbury, the television is the
ultimate dehumanizer-it prevents crime, but also removes any possibility of interpersonal exploration
and serves only to spoil the bodies of those that get obsessed.

(1) fire extended humans’ geographical boundaries by allowing them to travel into regions that were previously too cold to explore. (2) it also kept predators away, allowing early humans to sleep securely. (3) fire, in fact, has been a significant factor in human development and progress in many ways. (4) other obvious benefits of fire are its uses in cooking and in hunting. (5) probably even more important, however, is that learning to control fire allowed people to change the very rhythm of their lives. (6) before fire, the human daily cycle coincided with the rising and setting of the sun. (7) with fire, though, humans gained time to think and talk about the day’s events and to prepare strategies for coping with tomorrow. the sentence that expresses the main idea is: (type the number of the sentence. then click “go.”)
