English

Firdavs [7]3 years ago

Answer and Explanation:

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.

*Tiles Water-beetle darted in every direction over the surface of the water but could find no firm place to rest.

*Water-beetle dived to the bottom and came up with some soft mud, which began to grow and spread on every side until it became the island that we call Earth.

*Earth was afterward fastened to the sky with four cords, but no one remembers who did it.

The legend of "How the World Was Made" is a Cherokee tale that is part of the book "Myths and Legends of the Great Plains" by Katharine Berry Judson that tells the theory of creation according to the traditions and beliefs of this ancient culture and it is the same tale that they pass from one generation to the next one.

"You are what you dream of. You are what you think of. And, you are what you do." Describe the statements in your own words.
melomori [17]

I think it means that you are you. Your actions represent yourself and you are the only one who can make decisions for yourself. If you go and get arrested for stealing, that's who everyone knows you as. So, therefore, you are what you do, as in you are who you act like.
