C. Derisive
Explanation:
The question is from Maya Angelou's <em>I Know Why the Caged Bird Sings. </em>In Chapter 16, Angelou, through her main character, Marguerite, describes the discrimination between how white and black girls are prepared for life. She describes, “While white girls learned to waltz and sit gracefully with a tea cup balanced . . . we were lagging behind, learning the mid-Victorian values.” Black girls are also taught to work in the kitchen for white families.
One day, Marguerite overhears her employer, Mrs. Cullinan while she's talking to the cook. “her name’s too long. I’d never bother myself. I’d call her Mary if I was you.” Angelou describes Marguerite's anger and disgust in the words, “lunch in her mouth a second time.” Later, Marguerite is so angry that she decides to quit her job and breaks several of Mrs. Cullinan's favorite dishes.

How are the Games used to maintain control over the districts?
The Hunger Games are a display of power. The Capitol established the Games after the districts attempted a rebellion. Now, people from each district are forced to compete and fight to death. By doing this, the Capitol makes it clear that it has the power to kill, if it wishes. So much so that people would rather risk having their own kids' names drawn to the deadly Games than fighting for freedom. It is as if they think it is better to lose one or two with a certain frequency than battling and losing thousands of lives at once, not seeing that such a sacrificial ritual will never lead to change.
Conversely, how are the Games used to keep the Capitol happy and content?
The Games keep the people in the Capitol entertained. While people in the districts barely survive each day, in the Capitol they have too much of everything. Not having to starve, hunt, work, fight to live, they become easily bored. This cruel, barbaric display of violence is, therefore, a lot of fun for them.
