Hunger Games - Chapter 6

Chapter 6 (p. 73-85)
Chapter 6 finds the tributes at a luxury tower at the training center where all of their needs are met. They have dinner with Effie, Haymitch and the stylists and watch a recap of the opening ceremony. Peeta and Katniss have a conversation on the roof where that can’t be heard. Katniss considers the Avox, a red head girl she once saw fleeing from a hovercraft with her brother. She is troubled by this.

  1. Why is Effie Trinket still with Peeta and Katniss?

  2. How does Katniss feel about Effie’s description of the “barbarism of your district?” (p. 74).

  3. Describe Katniss’ quarters.

  4. What is an Avox? What penalty is levied on them?

  5. What does Haymitch think of Peeta and Katniss hand holding?

  6. How is Katniss in Peeta’s debt again?

  7. How did Katniss know the avox? Compare and contrast the incident with the read head girl with the Hunger Games.

  2. 1 Effie wants to find people to sponsor District 12.

    2 Katniss feels Effie is the barbarian preparing her for slaughter.

    3 Larger than her whole house, and plush with many gadgets.

    4 An Avox is a "traitor" and their toungues get cut off.

    5 Its not the greatest idea considering they will fight in the arena.

    6 Peeta backed her up when she thought she recognized the red head girl.

    7 The girl and boy were trying to escape and the hovercraft caught them. The red head was that same girl and shes now known as a traitor.
