Based on what is known about Stalin from history, which statement from his speech is the best example of hypocrisy? A. All the f
orces of the people — for the destruction of the enemy! B. Side by side with the Red Army the entire Soviet people is rising in defense of our native land. C. Naturally, our peace-loving country, not wishing to take the initiative of breaking the pact, could not resort to perfidy. D. Such popular levies must be raised in every city . . . all the working people must be roused to defend our freedom, our honor, our country . . .
Joseph Stalin, by saying that his peace-loving country could't be disloyal or perfidious, when he himself was the representation of this evil attitude, can be considered an example of extreme hypocrisy. He brought famine to his people, persecuted and executed thousands of them. All this shows he was saying something but <em>acting contrarily,</em>
C seems right to me. I don't know much about Joseph Stalin but from what I do know, he wanted to turn his country full of peasants into a military super power. So, him saying "peace-loving country" is hypocrisy.
Haymitch’s last advice is to start running at the sound of the gong, to ignore the Cornucopia and put as much distance as possible between themselves and the other tributes, and to find water.
