When the doors open it like blowing a hole in a dam and the water bursts forth. It’s every person for themselves to resist being trampled, everyone eager to see the brave new world. But my eyes are closed, hands shaking, taking a deep breath as I step off the Timeline Express Train. Even years later in the future, I can hear the familiar squeak of shoes on the paving slabs, the same slurps of coffee, and crunch of breakfast tacos that it kills your stomach for you to walk past. Noise is everywhere, and everyone is everywhere. I continue to leave the train station and see no telephone poles, or electrical cords of any kind. Gas stations, supermarkets, and stores no longer exist. I ask around and they give me a crazy look and tell me “just use …show more content…
I look up and all around me and that’s when I finally notice the flying cars that the future now has. I lean back in the seat and press the microphone button and saying, “Take me to work.” I almost had a heart attack when a Harry Potter projection appeared on my dashboard and responded back to me saying,” Yes, Miss Renae. Certainly, we are on our way to (company name). The drive should take no longer than 10 minutes.” I checked around the car for the source of the projection but the there wasn’t any. The car looked normal, no projector or computer of any kind in sight. I pressed the button again, practically shouting “How do you look and sound like Harry Potter?” All he said was” Because you programmed me that way, Miss Renae.” When we arrived I looked out the window and saw this amazing building, it seemed to resemble a circuit board and on the sides of the building displayed news and information on the company. “I work here,” I asked myself? “No, Miss Renae. You are the founder and owner of (company name). Your corporation has 202 floors, and its height is 2054 feet, its located in Dallas, Texas taking only 1 week to build thanks to your advanced technology.” My eyes widened in disbelief taking in the new information, shock coursing throughout my …show more content…
There were people everywhere, instead of computers there were holograms, it seemed you were teleported to where you needed to go ridding of the need to rush or run. I found holographic papers and screens pushed towards me needing my signature or approval as soon as I walked in. I felt myself being pulled left and right, steering me towards a different room, a laboratory. I walked in and saw interns, technicians, and other workers waiting for me in the lab. I tried to calm my nerves and asked,” Where did we leave off?” “You were just about to finish the robotic limb device.” They must have seen the confused expression on my face because they started to explain. “It’s a device you’re creating that relates to an x-ray scanner that when put over a prosthetic limb or missing limb, the device creates a robotic version of whatever’s missing in its place without anyone noticing whether it’s real or robotic.” I nodded my head in response and before I could acknowledge what was happening my hands were moving by themselves, finishing to create the device, picking up tools and attaching wires. It seemed like minutes before the device was already finished. We brought in a veteran, who was injured in combat making him lose his arms. When the device scanned his missing arms, it created a telegraphic image moving from his shoulders to midair, seconds later the veteran had arms. The once tense room was now joyful because the
The light was as bright as the sun and I could feel my retinas burning. In the back i could hear a slight beeping sound almost like it was graphing my heart beat. I heard voices, “Scalpel.” “I’m going to make the first incision now....” And then nothing, the voices stopped and i was back in my own head. I was startled by a falling sensation, as i was thrown into an even colder room. The light in here was dimmer, but it was still blinding. I crawled over to giant metal door and punched it and screamed for them to let me out. I needed to finish my work, my whole reputation depended on it. In a few
In this world where people can acquire anything they need or want, we have to wonder, “Is the government controlling us?” Both the governments in A Brave New World and in the United States of America offer birth control pills and have abortion clinics that are available for everyone, thus making birth control pills and abortion operations very easy to acquire. Although both governments offer birth control pills and abortion clinics, A Brave New World’s government requires everyone to take the pills and immediately get an abortion when pregnant. This in turn shows us that A Brave New World’s government is controlling the population and the development of children. China is one of the few countries that currently have control of the
Huxley's work, Brave New World, is a book about a society that is in the future. This book contains many strange things that are generally unheard of today. Yet we see that some of the ideas that are presented in this book were already present in the 20th century. The idea of having one superior race of people can easily be seen as something that Hitler was trying to accomplish during the Holocaust. Huxley presents the society in his book as being a greater civilization. A totalitarian type of leadership is also presented in his book. According to him, this would be the best and most effective type of government. Hitler also thought that a totalitarian government was best. We see several similarities between Hitler's Germany and Huxley's
Aldous Huxley wisely inserts many instances of distortion to the elements in Brave New World to successfully caution the world about its growing interest in technology.
The novel opens in the Central London Hatchery and Conditioning Centre. The year is a.f. 632 (632 years “after Ford”). The Director of Hatcheries and Conditioning is giving a group of students a tour of a factory that produces human beings and conditions them for their predestined roles in the World State. He explains to the boys that human beings no longer produce living offspring. Instead, surgically removed ovaries produce ova that are fertilized in artificial receptacles and incubated in specially designed bottles.
Everyday in this world has been developing gradually. As we all heared; "The only thing that never change is the changing itself." And this quote is correct for most people because we know that the world is rounding and two evenings are never same. In this rounding world, new ideas come out everyday: some of them are dying but some of them changes the world.
The blinding light advanced with terrifying speed. Like a massive wave that would soon overtake him.
The ideology of "strong and stable" is high evident within the world that of which is introduced to us
"Every one belongs to everyone else," is a theme that is repeated throughout the whole book and could mean different things to other people but to me it really symbolizes the communistic way of living that brave new world has adopted. Another theme that is relevant in Brave New World and in today's world is ¨just say no¨. Drugs in brave new world are taken to sustain happiness in their everyday life, and even in today's world it seems like there is about a pill for everything.
Helmholtz - Helmholtz is an Alpha Plus, yet not only disagrees with the world he’s stuck in, but dislikes his life. He is bored with women, and all things that should interest him (and do everybody else). He is dissatisfied with the way his writing is used, and believes that he could be writing about much more important things, topics he chooses and enjoys. He finds a friend in Bernard because they share a common disliking of society, however has more legitimate problems with society, whereas Bernard’s complaints are rather childish.
The novel Brave New World was about a young man being introduced to a new society where his mother grew up. The novel gives readers the perspective of how the young man saw and thought of everything around him. Throughout the whole novel readers read about this society’s different ways of life. Without knowing it readers start to judge this societies way of life and start to compare it to their way of life in the present world. While both the novel Brave New World and the present world have different views of love/ marriage, drugs/pharmaceuticals, and life/death each has some similarities.
I was sitting inside my research lab when I first began the adventure that changed my life. RING. The phone inside my cramped lab started to ring. “I’ll get it.” I tell my two lab partners. After I had tripped over two boxes, knocked over a beaker, and managed to hit my head on the ceiling, I had finally reached the phone. “This better be important.” I mutter to myself. I pick up the phone. “This is Athens laboratory corporation, Theseus speaking.” I then heard a voice from the other line.
In the year 634 AF, everything is gone. The new world consists of 10 castes. Ten controllers hold all the power of the superior five castes and the lower five castes. The children are produced in a factory system, and adults are put at ease with soma. The director of Hatcheries and Conditioning in London leads a group of students around. Henry and Lenina have been dating far too long and it begins to break rules so Lenina decides to date Bernard. Bernard is warned that he will be exiled if he cannot fix his non-conformist attitude. Lenina and Bernard go on a date to the Savage Reservation in New Mexico. The Savage Reservation is where all the people unworthy of Utopia go. There, they meet Linda and John. Bernard finds out that John is the child
The novel, Brave New World, open with a tour of the Hatchery, which shows how the babies are made and trained for their caste system. We meet a new character Bernard who works there and goes on a date with Lenina and have sex. Bernard and Lenina go to a reservation, where they meet John the savage. John really likes Lenina. Bernard and Lenina take John with them. When they arrived John loves their world and gets more attracted to Lenina. When John meets the director John calls him dad. John is the director son which is really bad because in their civilization they do not have parents anymore. John's mom dies for overdosing on soma and John does not understand why nobody is reacting and starts hating their society . John stays in a lighthouse
It is a fable about a world state in the 7th century A.F. (after Ford), where social stability is based on a scientific caste system. Human beings, graded from highest intellectuals to lowest manual workers, hatched from incubators and brought up in communal nurseries, learn by methodical conditioning to accept they social destiny. The action of the story develops round Bernard Marx, and an unorthodox and therefore unhappy alpha- plus ( something had presumably gone wrong with his antenatal treatment), who vivits a new Mexican Reservetion and brings a savage back to London. The savage is at first fascinated by the New World, but finally revolted, and
