Answer.

Analyze the meaning of the
following quote: "He felt his body
divide itself into a hotness and a
coldness, a softness and a
hardness, a trembling and a not
trembling, the two halves grinding
one upon the other" (Bradbury
21).

In my opinion, the meaning could be that this guy has realized the different sides of him, the different “halves” make up the way he is. On one side is his nervous and submissive side and the other is his serious and strong side. Perhaps now he is trying to sort out how to use them both equally and is feeling them both out.
