Chapter 24

What is the main idea of this chapter?

Why does Katniss decide to save the poison berries?

Why does Katniss think the Gamemakers want to drive the remaining tributes to the lake?

Look at the section of chapter twenty–four where Katniss thinks about Cato's reaction to the supplies being destroyed. Suzanne Collins writes, "…he was completely unhinged."

In this context, what does "unhinged" mean?

Look at the section where Katniss and Peeta wait for Cato and listen to the sounds of the mockingjays mimicking their tune. The author writes, "Then something begins to disrupt the music. Runs cut off in jagged, imperfect lines. Dissonant notes intersperse with the melody."

In this context, what is the definition of "dissonant"?

In the same quote as the last question (below), what does "intersperse" mean? "Then something begins to disrupt the music. Runs cut off in jagged, imperfect lines. Dissonant notes intersperse with the melody."

Is there anything that is unclear in this chapter?
