Hunger Games - Chapter 11

Chapter 11 (p. 148-160)
After dressing at the arena and being sent off by Cinna, Katniss rises from the catacombs to the arena where she has 60 seconds to survey the scene of the Cornucopia, looking for weapons and supplies, before a gong sounds starting the games. Chaos ensues, and Katniss narrowly escapes death and makes it to the woods to camp for the night. Katniss is shocked to learn that Peeta has joined in an alliance of Career Tributes that are hunting down the lesser tributes. The dead are broadcast to the living via a projected slide show, but how they died is not disclosed.

  1. What is the Cornucopia?


  2. What does Katniss see in the Cornucopia that she feels was meant for her?


  3. Describe the opening moments of the Games.


  4. How many died the first day and how many are left?


  5. What woke Katniss up the first night? What happened to the tribute responsible for waking up Katniss?

  1. 1 The Cornucopia is a spot in the arena where you get your weapons and supplies.

    2 Katniss sees a bow and she is skilled with the bow.

    3 Brutal, everyone fought over the supplies in a bloodbath.

    4 Eleven tributes were wiped out instantly at the Cornucopia and later on another died. So half are gone and half are still in.

    5 A girl tribute was setting off fires and then she got killed by an alliance.

  2. 1- the Cornucopia is where you get weapons in the arena. Cornucopia it also means plenty.

    2- Katniss saw a bow at the cornucopia and that is why she thought that she be hers.

    3- In the opening games many people died at the cornucopia.

  3. 1. A golden horn!

    2. A bow and arrow.

    3. Well, it was violent and probably contained a lot of tension and fear.

    4. 11, which means 13 are left.

    5. A lil' girl died. Mr. Bungle isn't laughing.... :(
