English

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

Answer: The Hunger Games live up to their name. In her books, Collins focuses on food as a symbol of wealth and inequality. Katniss and others who live in the outer Districts starve, while the Capitol has an abundance of food.As far as the book and the movie are concerned, there is no rest of the world. ... The book sometimes implies that the rest of the world was destroyed, between wars and geological disaste

1) The Ones Who Walk Away From Omelas<br><br>Does the story represent contemporary American culture?
Harrizon [31]

Answer:

It Does

Explanation:

Actually it describes how people is becoming less happy, how their smiles are being removed from their faces, in the perception of the writer the city was amazing just as American people think the country, it is represented by the feeling of victory that the author names the triumph felt. As in the representation of the boy who is looked in a room, it can be said that we nowadays have as well things that prefer to ignore or visit vaguely to see how defective we are in deep. He can be also a representation of happiness, and how we have killed or hidden it in order to have a bright and supposedly happy life, but if we made all these fears or dreams come out they could end our comfort.

Prompt: You have to nominate someone for an award. Who would you nominate for what award
Mnenie [13.5K]

I believe the answer to this is letter A. In the paragraph, we can consider the words <span>the Giving Spirit as the figure of speech. By definition, figure of speech refers to a phrase which has a meaning other than the literal meaning. In this case, the Giving Spirit award does not literally mean giving away her spirit rather it means to sacrifice for others.</span>

What does the excerpt reveal about the setting of the story?
nlexa [21]

Answer:

The correct answer to the question: What does the excerpt reveal about the setting of the story?, is: A: The lack of civilization is a persistent danger.

Explanation:

In this adventure novel by Jack London, and published in 1903, especially starting from chapter 2, we learn about the adventures that a St. Bernard cross with Scottish Shepherd, called  Buck, must face when he is sold to a couple of French-Canadian dispatchers, called Francois and Perrault, and he must become part of a pack of sled-leading dogs, whose leader is the terror, Spitz and who work in the Klondlike region of Canada. The answer chosen, A, is the correct choice, as what is described by the narrator, as he talks about what Buck faces at the start of chapter 2, is that Buck must face the reality that he is no longer in his sunny and comfortable life in California, but is facing a situation where danger, especially from his dog companions and also humans, is constant. There is a total lack of civilization brought on by the roughness of the landscape, the situation and the animals and humans themselves. Buck soon realizes that danger here is a constant companion. This can be seen from the excerpt itself, when it says: "There was need to be constantly alert; for these dogs and men were not town dogs and men."
