Chapter 7 to 12 Essay Questions

1.  Why are the “Tributes” given stylist and dressed so elaborately for the opening ceremony?  Does this ceremony remind you of events in our world, either past or present?  Compare those ceremonies in real life to the one in the story.

2. Why do you think fire is an appropriate symbol for Katniss?

3.  Before the Games start, Peeta tell Katniss, “…I want to die as myself…I don’t want them to change me in the there.  Turn me into some kind of monster that I’m not.”  What does this tell you about Peeta?  What does he fear more than death?

4.  Do you think the glamorization of the Games and the treatments of its stars before they are sent off to die is a reflection of anything in our modern society?
