Effie Trinket In The Hunger Games
I think the character of Effie Trinket in The Hunger Games is very outgoing. She knows what she wants and goes after it. Effie cares a lot about fashion and always tries to make herself look perfect. She believes that she has to be perfect. Sometimes she is obnoxiously cheerful and extremely positive. Effie does what she is told to do by the President and she tries to turn bad things into good. Even though Effie seems self-centered, she really does care about other people and their needs. An example of how Effie shows she cares about others is when she tries to make Katniss and Peeta feel comfortable in the Capitol even though they are feeling out of place. One of the most interesting characters in The Hunger Games is Effie Trinket

This is the case with two native girls, April Raintree and Ashtoh-Komi, in 'April Raintree' and 'Where the Spirit Lives' respectively, who struggle against social prejudice. Both stories are unbelievable and have an emotional touch. It is based on the real lives of the native children. April Raintree is a Métis girl, while Ashtoh-Komi is Aboriginal. They are both amazing and remarkable characters. Both girls have been through many different problems.

    I think I probably wouldn't be able to survive in the wilderness, much less if people are trying hard to make sure I don't survive until the next day. I am used to getting my food in the supermarket, already processed, and I'm sure I wouldn't be able to hunt, kill or even build a fire. But Katniss Everdeen could.…

    She is characterzed by being a caring person who encourage ones around her to keep going no matter what. Im always there for people who ask for my help, and im also a caring person. The motivation that Katniss showed through her actions is away that I am when helping others, or in a bad situation. Not once in the movie did I see her give up on anything, even if she had gotten hurt really bad. She stuck to what she had to do or either what she was going to do in order to get things back to how they were. Even when it came to helping another team player, she didn’t see it as a threat which showed how caring she…

    Imagine the cruelest form of a dictatorship you can think of, randomly selecting two young and innocent children per state from their families and friends. This is the corrupt and power-obsessed capitol. The capitol forces 24 children, 2 from each district to get put into an arena where they must violently fight to the death; there are 12 districts. This is called the hunger games, a “celebration” rather than a punishment to remember the 13th district that attempted to overrule the capitol, therefore, destroyed. The treacherous and notorious hunger games are nationally televised to all the districts as a lesson and are an amazing and honorable task to the people of the capitol. When Katniss Everdeen’s sister is randomly selected, Katniss takes her place in the games and wins. She is then reselected back into the games…

    In 2012, a mad fan of The Hunger Games, Pollitt, describes to us her thoughts on the movie. Pollitt tells us that she thinks the movie does the book justice and that she finds the most striking element of the film to be Katniss Everdeen, the main character. Pollitt tells us that Katniss has masculine qualities: she is the hunter in the family, she is strong and fearless, and she is good at bargaining for food on the black market. Pollitt then tells us that on the other side, she has feminine qualities: she is not aggressive or confident, and she is kindhearted, as she defends the defenseless. Pollitt believes that Katniss is a version of the goddess Artemis, who protects the young and hunts with a silver bow and arrows. Pollitt also tells us…

    I’m going to be talking about if we should eliminate the electoral college. On December 13, 2000, vice president Al Gore conceded the presidential election to Governor Bush. A day earlier, a lengthy and expensive manual vote recount process in Florida was stopped by the United States supreme court despite Bush leading by only 537 votes with Bush winning the states by 25 electoral votes put him over the needed threshold of 275. This election result was highly unusual not just because of Supreme Court decisions it was also the 4th time in united states history that a candidate had garnered majority of the popular votes but lost the election. As you all also have heard this type of scenario happened again with Hillary winning the popular vote…

    There are various definitions for what someone must do in order to be considered a hero. The classic definitions normally involve individuals who have fought in a war or have put themselves in physical danger. In the Hunger Games, Katniss Everdeen portrays this by putting herself in known danger. However, the definition should also include those individuals who have done a courageous act, which the rest of us could not normally do in fear of rejection of family, peers, or community. Martin Luther King Jr., Rosa Parks, and Frederick Douglass all lived brave lives by fighting for their rights. Although traditionally the term “heroism” has been applied to those who have braved physical danger, people who speak out for their rights and have courage doing so should also be considered heroes.…

    “I pull an arrow from quiver and sent it straight at the Gamemakers table…“Thank you for your consideration” I say. These are the words said by Katniss Everdeen, protagonist from the “Hunger Games” by Suzanne Collins, showing her anger to the gammakers who were ignoring her during her first training session. The story is set in a futuristic apocalypse in which the United States has been separated into 13 Districts, all of which struggle to survive under the harsh dictatorship of the Capitol (The government). Being supported by almost all the district 12 with an old rare gesture when she was picked up for the games & being ignored by the gamemakers when she start her first private training session can definitely tell what made Katniss such a controversial character.…
