Vocab Ch 9
Read Ch 9 (31 min)
If you were an inventor, what cool invention might you pitch to the rich people in the Capitol? (They already have a box-thing that untangles and dries your hair instantly, a wardrobe you can talk to, windows that zoom in on different parts of the city, and a food service that sends you whatever you want from the menu in fewer than 60 seconds.)
If you were turned into an Avox by the Capitol (a rebel who had her tongue removed as punishment), what would your crime have been?
What would you do with your free time if you never knew when (or if) you would have electricty every day, as is the case in the poor Districts (and in many real countries)?
1. When you're old, do you think you'll have plastic surgery, like people in the Capitol, or will you view wrinkles as a sign of survival and wisdom?
2. If you had to wear high heels like Katniss does for her TV interview, would you rock them, or would you be tempted to throw them at someone out of the injustice of having to wear them?
3. If you had a TV interview in front of the whole country, would you freak out, or would you think it was kind of fun?
Finish that journal entry.
Finish Ch 9.
