Chapter 22

What is the main idea of this chapter?

In the beginning of chapter twenty–two, who does Katniss think is stroking her head?

How does Katniss explain Thresh's choice to let her live?

What surprising fact does Peeta tell Katniss about her parents?

Who is better at acting in love?

Look at the section of chapter twenty–two where Katniss gets upset explaining why she does not want Cato to kill Thresh. Suzanne Collins writes, "'I want to go home, Peeta,' I say, plaintively, like a small child."

In this context, what does "plaintive" mean?

Look at the section where the author describes the weather outside of the Katniss and Peeta's cave; "The deluge continues as if the Gamemakers are intent on washing us all away."

In this context, what does "deluge" mean?

Is there anything that is unclear in this chapter?
