Hunger Games

Before the games
(p. 58) “The Hunger Games aren’t a beauty contest, but the best looking tributes always seem to pull more sponsors.
-
(p. 63) “But this is Cinna, my stylist,”
-
(p. 92) “don’t reveal how much you can lift in front of the other tributes. The plan’s same for both of you.”
-
(p. 97) “But they do seem to be keeping their eye on District 12 tributes. Several times I’ve looked up to find one fixated on me.”
-
-
-
(p. 123) “When the elevator opens, the other tributes are being lined up to take the stage. All twenty-four of us sit in a big arc throughout the interviews.”
-
Training Center
(p. 73) “The Training Center has a tower designed exclusively for the tributes and their teams. This will be our home until the actual games begin.”
-
Dinner Table
(p. 76) “Besides, Dinner isn’t really about food, it’s about planning our strategies, and Cinna and Portia have already proven how valuable they are.”
-
Harsh place
-
(p. 165-166) "As the day wears on, I know I'm headed for trouble. What little urine I've been able to pass is a dark brown, my head is aching, and there's a dry patch on my tongue that refuses to moisten. The sun hurts my eyes so I dig out my sunglasses,"
This shows how the environment makes the person weak. Tributes can die because of the environment not because of the other tributes.(Dying is natural in the Hunger Game.)
District 12
Hard place to survive
(p. 4)“Our part of District 12, nicknamed the Seam, is usually crawling with coal miners heading out to the morning shift at this hour.”
District 12 is a hard place to survive. They have to become coal miners to live like others. If not, they might starve and go to death.
(p.4-5) “In theory, it’s supposed to be electrified twenty-four hours a day as a deterrent to the predators that live in the woods.”
District 12 is not able to go to the woods because the fence is blocking the way. The wood can be a dangerous place but it can be one of the ways to get foods. Even the Capitol knows this, they don’t let them go in the woods. So when the fence is not electrified, Katniss and Gale go through and hunts for animals to avoid starving.
(p. 17) “Anyway, Gale and I agree that if we have to choose between dying of hunger and a bullet in the head, the bullet would be much quicker.”
The biggest reason that people in district 12 die, is because of starving. We can know that the situation is very serious that Katniss and Gale talks about death like this.
(p. 6) “District 12. Where you can starve for death and safety,” I mutter”
District 12 is a place that is safe, but would die because of starvation.
(p. 27) “Who still polished my father’s shaving mirror each night because he hated the layer of coal dust that settle on everything in the Seam.”
-
-
(p. 28) You hear the wails from a house, and the peacekeepers are called in to retrieve the body.
-
-
Homeland for Katniss
(p. 4) “Our house is almost at the edge of the Seam. I only have to pass a few gates to reach the scruffy field called the Meadow.”
This describes how Katniss’s house looks like. Even district 12 is a horrible place to survive it is a homeland for everyone who lives there.
(p. 11) “Hob, the black market that operates in an abandoned warehouse that once held coal.”
If there’s a black market that almost everyone knows, that means that the people live in a hard way. It can mean that people can’t live well without a black market.

The Capitol
Very Controlling
(p. 6) “When I was younger, I scared my mother to death, the things that I would blurt out about District 12, about the people, who rule our country, Panem, from the far-off city called the capitol.”
-
(p. 18) “Taking kids from our districts, forcing them to kill one another while we watch -- this is the Capitol’s way of reminding us how totally we are at their mercy.”
-
(p. 173) "a uniformity that marks them a s human-made, machine-made, Gamemaker-made."
They try to kill the tributes just for fun. Then they act as they are worshiping the dead tributes that they killed. They think that the deaths of the tributes are the best way to entertain the Hunger Game.
-
The help to the games
(p. 49) “I can send one of the Capitol people to help you.” There’s any number on the train. Cooking for us. Waiting on us. Guarding us. Taking care of us is their job.”
-
-
(p. 64) “This is my first year in the Games,” says Cinna. “So they gave you District Twelve,” I say. Newcomers generally end up with us, the least desirable district.
-
(p. 156-157) "I take a deep breath as the faces of the eleven dead tributes begin and tick them off one by one on my fingers."
The Capitol makes the people think that they care a lot of the dead tributes. However they do not care for real. It is only being shown for their good image.
The People
(p. 70) “The crowd’s initial alarm at our appearance quickly changes to cheers and shouts for District 12!”
-

Waiting Room
Room of farewell
(p.34) “My sister and my mother come first.” “For few minutes, we say nothing.” “I cannot afford to get upset, to leave this room with puffy eyes and a red nose. Crying is not an option.”
Katniss wants to cry because she might not see her family anymore if she leaves the room. This shows how much getting away from the family without coming back is a hard time.
(p. 36) ““I’ll be all right, Katniss,” says Prim, clasping my face in her hands.”
Prim and Katniss were able to say goodbye by worrying each other. They both tried to say goodbye with a nice face that will last in their memories forever.
(p. 38) ““Then make one,” says Gale. “Even weak bow is better than no bow at all.”
He tries to help as much as he can rather than crying. This shows that he wants Katniss to come back alive. Also he makes himself more memorable to Katniss.
-
Coruncopia
Dangerous presence
(p. 148) "Coruncopia, a giant golden horn shaped like a come with a curved tail, the mouth of which is at least twenty feet high, spilling over with the things that will give us life here in the arena."
