1.) The Hunger Games were created to serve as a form of punishment for the 13 districts of Panem after they tried to revolt against the Capitol. The Hunger Games are an annual event. Every year, a male and a female between the ages of 12-18 are selected from each district in a process called "the Reaping". The selected pair are then taken to the Capitol to prepare for the battle that will take place in just 3 days. After 3 days, all the contests are placed in an arena, where they will fight to the death. The original rules state that one person will remain alive, although, *SPOILER* in Peeta and Katniss' case, two victors were allowed to emerge.
2.) In Mockingjay, the third book, after Snow is slain and the Capitol's tyranny is brought down, a decision is made to discontinue the Hunger Games, as they were cruel and inhumane
Long things in a small list
1. B) given
2. A) take. This one is a bit tricky, because if only "taked" was underlined, the correct version would be 'taken'. But if "have taked" is underlined, 'take' would work the same as 'have taken'.
Well you could solve by cross multiplying 66 and 2/3 (into an improper fraction) multiplied by the reciprocal of 30, but 66 and 2/3 means 2/3 (1/3 equals 33 1/3 %) so then you can divide 30 by 3, which is 10, and then multiply by 2 to get 20. So, 66 and 2/3 of 30 is 20. Hope that helped!
