Bradbury is trying to show how this society is constantly bombarded with media. In this case, it's advertisements pounding them into a passive state. No one on the train is talking or interacting. They are just sitting listening to the advertisement like they are being brainwashed into buying denham's dentifrice. In contrast to this Montag is trying to read a passage from the Bible about letting go of material things (including Denham's dentifrice). This juxtaposition between the natural world and materialism further shows how society is so wrapped up in media that they are unaware of the world around them.
The right answer is “Both the memoir and the poem are about Rosa Parks, but the poem talks more about her personal feelings.” Rosa Parks was an American activist in the civil rights movement. She is known for her essential role in the Montgomery bus boycott. In December 1955, she disallowed bus driver James F. Blake's order to surrender her seat in the "colored section" to a white passenger, after the whites-only section was full. “On the Bus with Rosa Parks” is one of several sections in Dove’s book that gives voice to Rosa Parks. The use her, female voices in her poem can be outlined to Dove’s own life experiences, reflection of her own actions and emotions in times where black people were ignored, infringed upon and usually abused.

Ambrose Gwinnett Bierce was born on June 24 in 1842. He was an American short story writer, journalist, poet, and Civil War veteran.
One of Bierce's book, The Devil's Dictionary was named as one of "The 100 Greatest Masterpieces of American Literature" by the American Revolution Bicentennial Administration. His story "An Occurrence at Owl Creek Bridge" has been called as "one of the most famous and frequently reproduced stories in American literature"
"An Occurrence at Owl Creek Bridge" written in 1890 and originally published by The San Francisco Examiner on July 13, 1890, and was first poised in Bierce's book Tales of Soldiers and Civilians in 1891. The story is set during the American Civil War, and it is known for its irregular time sequence and twisted ending.
The sentence from "An Occurrence at Owl Creek Bridge" that refers to the reality of Farquhar’s situation in the dream sequence he envisions is:
"His neck ached horribly; his brain was on fire, his heart, which had been fluttering faintly, gave a great leap, trying to force itself out at his mouth."
