The electric field that would throw them back on the roof is what prevents tributes from jumping.

Why does Peeta Mellark backstab katniss in the first book?

Peeta did not intentionally turn on Katniss in "Mockingjay," book three of the Hunger Games. He was taken in by the Capitol near the end of "Catching Fire" [second book] and, as later revealed in Mockingjay, hijacked by President Snow. Snow took memories Peeta had of Katniss and infused them with tracker jacker poison, to distort the images to make them look like Katniss was trying to hurt Peeta. After so much of this hijacking, Peeta's mind began to slowly break down as the girl he once knew turned into a monster trying to kill him. When Katniss and Peeta next meet, he believes that she is a muttation, out to get him. President Snow did all of this to him; Peeta didn't purposely turn on Katniss.

Why does Peeta really love Katniss and he declares it in the interview?

Ever since Peeta first saw Katniss he was in love with her. Katniss's' first memory of him was when she was starving and she tried looking for food in Peeta's family's bins. His mother chased her away put Peeta purposely burnt a loaf of bread so Katniss could have it. Peeta tells Katniss in the 74th Hunger Games that he remembers that in assembly Katniss was the first to volunteer to sing a song. He declares it in the interview to help Katniss in the arena an made her look more vulnerable. Katniss takes this offensively and accidently injures Peeta. Haymitch then convinces Katniss that this was a good thing.

Cinna is killed in Catcting Fire but his death is confirmed in Mockingjay. As Katniss is about to enter the arena once again for the third annual quarter quell, a few peacekeepers come in and beat Cinna to death.

What does Katniss realize about Peeta's actions in the Hunger Games?

She realizes that she loves him .

You will notice that when she sees him she always remembers him trowing bread away while others or her is starving which is why trough the beginning of the movie she is reluctant to talk to him. The only reason she is affectionate and caring is because almost at the end the only way they can win if both survive.

Pretty much they are pretending to help them get sponsors and in return get stuff that will help them survive.
