Does Katniss really love Peeta in the hunger games?
In the first book of the series, Katniss pretends to be in love with Peeta because she hopes to gain the support of sponsors, so she will be sent supplies while in the arena and will be more likely to win. By the end of the trilogy she is as much in love with him as he has always been with her. She starts falling in love with him during the 1st game. It flourishes in the second book and is tested in the 3rd book.
What does Peeta Mellark gain by joining to rest of the careers?
Their trust, and ultimately a little more time for Katniss.
What was haymitch's training strategy for katniss and Peeta Mellark?
haymitch tells them to act friendly, to act like a team.
What day does the games begin in the Hunger Games?
The movie to this fantastic series comes out on March 23, 2012. all three books have already been released, and if you mean to ask what it is, it's a book that's rapidly gaining popularity from what I've seen of it. It's part of a trilogy following a girl named Katniss Everdeen who has taken part in The Hunger Games twice in a post-apocalyptic world. The Hunger Games are actually one barbaric game for survival Katniss and friend Peeta Mellmark are forced to play by The Capitol, the head of all the Districts. Katniss and Peeta are part of District 12, clearly the least popular district in the book. In the Hunger Games, they are forced to fight against two citizens from each of the other districts, totaling to 24 "tributes."In the Games, Katniss and Peeta somehow gain a reputation of "star-crossed lovers," and seeing this, the Capitol announces a rule change in the middle of the Games, saying that two tributes from the same district may win the Games as a pair, rather than only one victor allowed. Hearing this, Katniss searches for Peeta but finds him wounded, and plays the part of a teenage girl falling in love to gain favor with the audience and gifts from her sponsors.When Katniss and Peeta are finally the last two tributes left, the Gamemakers suddenly reverse the rules and state that there can once more only be one winner, but the couple threatens suicide, hoping they would rather have two victors than none. It works, and Katniss and Peeta are both awarded and congradulated in the Capitol as winners of the 74th annual Hunger Games, but their mentor and former Games victor, Haymitch Abernathy, warns them that after defying the Capitol so publicly, they are political targets, and the book ends there. The second and third installments are called 'Catching Fire' and 'Mackingjay' by Suzanne Collins.
What does Effie trying to teach Katniss about her appearance to the audience in chapter nine?
Effie teaches Katniss how to walk heels and how to act like a lady. Katniss is taught this to represent District 12 in the highest honor and to gain sponsors, for she will later need them during the games.
What does Peeta Mellark hope to gain?
Peeta hopes (in the first book) to end up with Katniss out of the arena. At this stage, the audience is on the side of Gale who is obviously a better choice for Katniss.
When peeta says haynitch said you would take alot of convincing what was he referring to?
Peeta was referring to the idea that he and Katniss should pretend to be in love in order to gain sympathy and support from the sponsors during the Hunger Games. Haymitch likely knew that convincing Katniss to go along with this plan would be a challenge due to her distrustful nature.

What does katniss mean when she says a kind Peeta Mellark is far more dangerous to you than an unkind one?
When Katniss says this, she means that a kind Peeta Mellark can disarm his enemies and gain their trust, making it harder for them to hate or harm him. An unkind Peeta would be easier for others to see as a threat and therefore defend against, but a kind one could manipulate people more effectively.
How does Katniss earn her first sponsor gift?
In the 74th annual Hunger Games, Katniss doesn't really seem to do anything to receive the gifts that Haymitch sends her. Haymitch watched The Hunger Games and observed what Katniss was doing and what exactly she needed and when she needed it. For instance, to gain the audience's attention and devotion for the "star crossed lovers of District 12", Haymitch sent Katniss broth to give to Peeta when he was in pain while he was in the cave to make the audience feel compassion for the couple.
Who is peeta malark?
Peeta is introduced when he is chosen to be the male tribute for District 12 in the Games. Katniss recalls that he gave her burned bread when she and her family were starving to death. When interviewed before the 74th Hunger Games, he confesses that he has secretly been in love with Katniss, which she assumes is a strategy of his to gain popularity with sponsors watching the Games. It seems that view is justified when he teams up with the "Careers," a pack of tributes from the richer districts who are actively hunting Katniss. He saves Katniss from a raging Cato, the boy tribute from District 2, and ends up taking Cato's sword to the leg. Much later, Katniss learns that this was actually a ploy on his part to protect her, since he knew that they would try to attack her first and he wanted to be in a position to interfere with their plans. Later, the Gamemakers announce a new rule: if the final two tributes are from the same district, they can both be crowned Victors. Katniss seeks out Peeta, who is injured and near death from infection and blood loss. She cleans him up and takes him to safety, and realizes that if she pretends to be in love with him (as she believes he is pretending to be in love with her), she will gain sympathy from the viewers, and as a result receive life-saving gifts from sponsors. Later, Katniss risks her life by fighting with other tributes to get medicine to cure Peeta's moribund infection. Peeta did not let Katniss go, but got tricked to sleep by drinking sleep syrup sent by the sponsors. Finally, Katniss and Peeta are the last alive, but instead of being crowned joint victors, the rule is revoked and there can be only one victor. Katniss readies to defend herself, but Peeta throws away his knife. Katniss then suggests that they commit suicide by ingesting the nightlock berries. Katniss is using this opportunity to show up the Gamemakers, taking to heart what Peeta had said earlier about showing the Capitol that they are not just pieces in their game but actual people, along with the small amount of hope that the Gamemakers would rather have two victors than none. The ploy works, but the two later find out that it was considered by President Coriolanus Snow to be a rebellious act against the Capitol, invoking his ire against them. Once the two are safe, Katniss finds out that Peeta really has been in love with her, that everything he has done was not an act. When Peeta discovers that Katniss may have been faking love for him in the Games to get sponsors, he is saddened and emotionally withdraws himself from her through the beginning of the next book
What do you learn from Peeta interview?
From Peeta's interview in the first book, you learn that he is inlove with Katniss and is very capable of using his words to sway the crowd in his favor. In the second book, when he gives gives his interview for the Quarter Quell, he lies and tells the audience that he and Katniss secretly got married and she is pregnant. Honestly, this is apretty good strategy, despite seeming quite absurd because the crowd once again is in his and Katniss's favor. Just as it was after the first interview. He really only does this to gain the audience's positive opinion and protect the two of them.
What is the climax of The Hunger Games by Suzanne Collins?
The story takes place in an unidentified future time period after the destruction of North America, in a nation known as Panem. Panem consists of a rich Capitol and twelve surrounding, poorer districts. As punishment for a previous rebellion against the Capitol, every year one boy and one girl from each district is forced to participate in "The Hunger Games", a televised event whereby the participants, or "tributes", must fight to the death in an outdoor arena until only one remains. The story follows 16-year-old Katniss Everdeen, a girl from District 12 who volunteers for the Games in place of her younger sister, Primrose. Also participating from District 12 is Peeta Mellark, a boy whom Katniss knows from school and who once gave Katniss bread when her family was starving. Katniss and Peeta are taken to the Capitol, where they meet the other tributes and are publicly displayed to the Capitol audience. During this time, Peeta reveals on-air his long-time unrequited love for Katniss. Katniss believes this to be a plot to gain audience support for the Games, which can be crucial for survival, as audience members are permitted to send gifts to the tributes. The Games begin with 11 of the 24 tributes dying in the first hour, while Katniss relies on her well-practiced hunting and outdoors skills to survive. As the Games continue, the tribute death toll increases but both Katniss and Peeta are able to evade death. Supposedly due to Katniss and Peeta's beloved image to the audience as "star-crossed lovers", a rule change is announced midway through the Games, stating that two tributes from the same district can win the Hunger Games as a pair. Upon hearing this, Katniss searches for Peeta, and finds him mortally wounded. She nurses him back to health, and acts the part of a young girl falling in love to gain more favor with the audience. The couple manages to outlast all the other tributes, and the gamemakers try to force them into a dramatic finale where one must kill the other to win. Instead, they both threaten suicide, and are subsequently both declared winners. After returning to the Capitol, Katniss must deal with the aftermath of defying the Capitol publicly, and sorting out her true feelings for Peeta, she discovers who truly does love her.
