  6. $300 Question from H1 What is utopial?

  7. $300 Answer from H1 Utopia literally means "no place" and it describes a society so perfect and ideal that it could probably not exist, therefore "no place." Utopian novels include Brave New World, 1984, Herland and Ecotopia.

  8. $400 Question from H1 What is eugenics?

  9. $400 Answer from H1 Eugenics is selective breeding or regulated breeding in order to better the human species: improving human genetic (eugenics) qualities.

  10. $500 Question from H1 In what conditions are the bottles stored?

  11. $500 Answer from H1 The temperature is "tropical" and that they have to be somewhere where there is no light.

  12. $100 Question from H2 Why are the bottles stored in the condition they are stored in?

  13. $100 Answer from H2 The reason for this is due to what is in the bottles.  After all, inside the bottles are human fetuses.  Because of that, the bottles have to be in a place that is quite a bit like an actual human uterus.  So that means it has to be quite warm and it has to be dark.

  14. $200 Question from H2 Who was responsible for John's death in Brave New World?

  15. $200 Answer from H2 The crowd of people (and the society as a whole) is responsible.  They are the ones who start chanting "orgy porgy" as John whips himself.  They are the one who start the orgy that makes John so disgusted with himself

  16. $300 Question from H2 How does John die.

  17. $300 Answer from H2 He hangs himself.

  18. $400 Question from H2 In Brave New World, what caste is Lenina in?

  19. $400 Answer from H2 Beta.

  20. $500 Question from H2 Why is the Director going to make example of Bernard?

  21. $500 Answer from H2 Director is embarrassed because Bernard has made him reminisce about something in his (the Director's) past.  He has started to think about the time that he went to the Reservation.  Clearly, something embarrassing happened then and he does not like Bernard hearing him talk about it.

  22. $100 Question from H3 In Chapter 13 of Brave New World, how does a phone call help Lenina?

  23. $100 Answer from H3 The phone call helps Lenina Crowne because it stops John the Savage from beating her any further.

  24. $200 Question from H3 In Chapter 13 of Brave New World, what makes John change his mind about Lenina?

  25. $200 Answer from H3 Lenina isn't in love, but she thinks John is really attractive and wants to sleep with him.  In her apartment in this chapter, Lenina takes off her clothes to have sex with John.When John sees this, he starts to think she is a whore because that's what his values say she is if she acts like that

  26. $300 Question from H3 What point is Huxley making about marriage and relationships in Brave New World?

  27. $300 Answer from H3 Huxley is trying to say that monogamous relationships and romantic relationships in particular are a major part of what makes us human.

  28. $400 Question from H3 Summarize John's and Lenina's date in Chapter 11 of Brave New World.

  29. $400 Answer from H3 When John the Savage and Lenina Crowne go on a date, the main thing they do is go to "feelie."  The one they attend is a particularly sexualized feelie.  It features a black man who essentially kidnaps a blonde girl and keeps her in his helicopter for a long time.  The audience gets to feel what is going on in the movie, not just see it.

  30. $500 Question from H3 Describe Bernard's new life in Chapter 11 of Brave New World.

  31. $500 Answer from H3 After Bernard makes the Director look stupid and brings John the Savage to public attention, his life changes completely.  He is now a celebrity of sorts and everyone wants to be his friend so they can be near to John.

  32. $100 Question from H4 Define this quote:"The people who govern the Brave New World may not be sane (in what may be called the absolute sense of the world), but they are not madmen, and their aim is not anarchy but social stability. it is in order to achieve stability that they carry out, by scientific means, the ultimate, personal, really revolutionary revolution."

  33. $100 Answer from H4 What it is saying is that the whole point of the Brave New World is to make their society completely stable.  I would say that this is true.  Stability comes when people are completely set in their ways and are relatively content to stay that way.

  34. $200 Question from H4 Define this quote:"The greatest triumphs of propaganda have been accomplished, not by doing something, but by refraining from doing. Great is truth, but still greater, from a practical point of view, is silence about truth."

  35. $200 Answer from H4 The society in the book achieves this by totally changing the way people exist.  The society engineers the people so that they will fit into the slots that society wants them to be in.  That way, there is no ambition, no frustration, nothing like that.  When people are content with their lives, their society will be stable.

  36. $300 Question from H4 What does Helmholtz think about Bernard?

  37. $300 Answer from H4 Helmholtz and Bernard are good friends.  They are both slightly out of place in their society -- a little bit of misfits.  Helmholtz, in general, likes Bernard, but dislikes a couple of Bernard's habits.  He especially hates how Bernard alternates between bragging and feeling sorry for himself.

  38. $400 Question from H4 What happened when the DHC visited the reservation more than 20 years ago?

  39. $400 Answer from H4 When the Director went to the reservation in New Mexico twenty to twenty-five years prior to this point, he ended up becoming the father of John the Savage.

  40. $500 Question from H4 What is the World State's way of controlling overpopulation in "Brave New World"?

  41. $500 Answer from H4 There a controlled number of Alphas, Betas, Deltas, Gammas, and Epislons are manufactured by the Bokanovsky's Process in which one fertilized egg produces from 8 to 96 "buds" that grow into identical human beings.

  42. $100 Question from H5 How do Lenina and Henry spend the time after work on their date?

  43. $100 Answer from H5 Lenina Crowne and Henry Foster are just finishing the first part of their date.  They have been playing Obstacle Golf at Stoke Poges, though they apparently did not finish their round.

  44. $200 Question from H5 What are essential parts of a Solidarity Service?

  45. $200 Answer from H5 -Drinking soma twelve times -- "I drink to my annihilation." -Singing hymns -- the lyrics emphasize how the individuals are not important -- they are part of a greater whole. -There are three hymns, with soma drunk in between. -They feel, or pretend to feel, the presence of the "Greater Being" -They do a dance while beating time on the buttocks of the people in front of them -And they apparently have an orgy.

  46. $300 Question from H5 What are Lenina and Bernard planning to do? (in chapter 4)

  47. $300 Answer from H5 They are planning to go on a trip together to New Mexico.  I think this is what your question refers to.

  48. $400 Question from H5 In the book, what attitude are people expected to have towards death?

  49. $400 Answer from H5 People are taught that death is natural and pleasant.  They are supposed to see it as nothing to get upset about.  If they can see it in this way, one more of their human instincts will have been destroyed.

  50. $500 Question from H5 Chapter 18 - How does society trick the Savage in Brave New World?
