The Hunger Games ~ Ch. 21

Chapter 21
1. Who's the first to get their pack?
~ Foxface was the first to get her backpack. Katniss was mad at Foxface and herself. Katniss wanted to be the first. Foxface ran as fast as she could and got her pack and then she left. Katniss was going to use the strategy that Foxface used.

 2. Who catches Katniss?
~Clove is the one who catches Katniss. Clove forces her to the ground. Then she selects a knife from a large Number of them. Then she asks Katniss where she should cut her. Clove barely gets a chance to cut Katniss' lip when Clove is pulled into the air.  It was Thresh, the boy tribute from District 11.

3. Why does Thresh let Katniss go?
~ Thresh let Katniss go because of what she did to Rue when she died. Katniss put flowers all around her body. He knew that Katniss would have and wanted to save her. Since he didn't want to owe Katniss, he let her go.
4. Why does Katniss think Cato will go after Thresh and not her?
~ Katniss thinks that Cato will go after Thresh. She thinks this because Thresh has all of the packs including Cato's. The backpacks include things that will help them. It is really important for their survival. That is why Katniss thinks Cato will go after Thresh and not her.
