Why is the reaping dangerous for gale and katniss?
Since they're in the poorest district, they put their names into the drawing more times in exchange for a tesserae of food, basic household supplies such as candles, clothes, etc.
What is it called when Katniss Everdeen puts her name in the reaping for food in Catching Fire?
Katniss Everdeen puts her name in multiple times in the reaping in exchange for food in Catching Fire. This act is called tesserae in The Hunger Games series.
Why is gale rude to Madge in the book the hunger games?
He is kinda jealous of her: she only has to enter the reaping a few times, while HE has to enter more than forty times to get the tesserae to feed his family.
What page is chapter 11 on in Hunger Games?

When where mosaics originated?
The history of mosaic goes back over 4,000 years , with the use of terracotta cones pushed point-first into a background to give decoration. By the eighth century BC, there were pebble pavements, using different coloured stones to create patterns, although these tended to be unstructured decoration. It was the Greeks, in the four centuries BC, who raised the pebble technique to an art form, with precise geometric patterns and detailed scenes of people and animals. By 200 BC, specially manufactured pieces called tesserae were being used to give extra detail and range of colour to the work. Using small tesserae, sometimes only a few millimetres in size, meant that mosaics could imitate paintings. Many of the mosaics preserved at, for example, Pompeii were the work of Greek artists.
