Who came third in the hunger games?
Nobody is really sure, because the Cornicopia killed 8 kids. The people they mention who die are, Glimmer, CLove, Foxface, Cato, Rue, and Thresh, Glimmer was killed first out of the six. Then Rue, and then Clove. So I suppose you could say Clove.
How are the woods beyond the fence important to katniss?
That's where Katniss goes to hunt, so they're important in a practical sense. But more than that, it's where she feels capable, even free.
What was the significance of katniss' Mockingjay pin?
It is the gift from her district given to her from Madge. Mockingjays were produced from Jabberjays and Mockingbords. The capitol never intended for them to exist. Since the pin is like her signature, she becomes the Mockingjay of the rebellion. Just the same....the capitol never intended for mockinjays to exist...Hope this helped (:

Are people going to make a movie of The Hunger Games?
That would be the best game ever, and they might becase a movie is comming out!!
They may, because they are thinking about making a movie. And if they did, it would be the best video game ever! Think of this... you can either follow the books story line, and be the character of Katniss, or... create your own character, and join the game, doing whatever you want. You can create your own story.
But this would mean that the NPC characters would have to think for themselves, and the whole map would have to be HUGE! And no 'loading' , or divided maps. It needs to be one big map. And the maps can change, ya! In the book, it was talking how the map was once a huge desert. So, why not change the maps a bit... and make an editor so you can create your own maps too! Ya, that would be a great game.
What is peetas name in the hunger games?
Peeta's score from the private training session is an eight.
What is the tone or mood of the hunger games?
Tone is the authors voice (this could be the character telling the story) or opinion of the subject they are writing about. Example) Happy, Somber, etc.
In my opinion, there are multiple tones for The Hunger Games. Katniss exhibits strength and courage but the games are dark and saddening. Some could argue that Katniss falls in love with Peeta and that love and hope could both be a tones but I disagree. I think the tone is much more serious, since the capitol is cruel and since there is little hope she will survive Katniss' desperate attempt to win the games is present.
What are the first two quarter quells in Catching Fire?
- In the 25th Hunger Games, the tributes were voted into place by the people of their own district.
- In the 50th Hunger Games, four tributes were chosen from each district instead of the usual two. This put twice as many people in the arena, and made it twice as brutal. Haymitch Abernathy won in the second Quarter Quell.
- The 75th Hunger Games had past victors from earlier Hunger Games compete for a second time. This action was made to destroy any bonds the districts had with each other and to make them feel weak. It was meant to be a reminder to the citizens of the districts that "even the strongest among them cannot overcome the power of the Capitol".
Why doesnt Haymitch Abernathy send katniss water?
because he was trying to send her signals not to give up yet and that she was almost there. at first she thought it was because he disliked her but then realized he was saving it for when she was nowhere near a stream and desperate.
Does katniss warn rue that she is going to attempt to harm the careers?
That they're strong, but without food, they're nothing. They don't know how to get their own food, they just have a stOck of it from the cornucopia. If they blow up the food, it'll put the careers in a bad position.
Is there anything bad about the book the hunger games?
This is a spoiler so if you don't wanna know don't read. Good things were was that Katniss+Peeta won the Hungergames, Katniss+ Peeta get to live in the Victor's village, Seneca Crain gets killed, and district 12 gets loads of food because they won. The bad things was that rue dies : (
How does Katniss try and solve the conflict in The Hunger Games?
There are many conflicts in The Hunger Games. The first conflict is her sister, Prim, getting picked for the Games. She tries to solve this conflict by volunteering herself in place of her sister.
Obviously, the Games are possibly the greatest conflict in the first book. Katniss is not "comfortable" with killing the others in cold blood, but she isn't sure how long she can keep up just keeping up with defense. There's also the romance factor, she doesn't want to have to kill Peeta. She tries to solve the Peeta conflict by her and Peeta threatening the Gamemakers with the fact that they would commit suicide by eating poisonous berries; and it works. The two are spared the horror of killing each other, and of dying from poison, but then are attacked by "Muttations" of the other players of the games, including Katniss' old friend Rue. Katniss tries to solve this conflict by focusing on the fact that it's just Mutts with the player's color eyes.
Of course that's just The Hunger Games. "Catching Fire" and "Mockingjay" have even more conflicts that rooted in the first book and blossomed into the exciting series.
