What are examples of metaphors in the hunger games?
Katniss is the mockingjay- literally she isn't a bird, but she is the thing that survived despite the Capitols intentions, like a mockinjay. Katniss, the Girl on Fire- She is the spark that set the districts alight with the idea of rebellion and the courage to change. She's never actually on fire... except for that bit where she gets hit with a fire ball in the Games... but other than that, it's a metaphor No. Katniss was called the girl on fire because...............................................they lit her up in the introduction? Have you even read the book? UmmNo! So? I have read the book, and she does get hit by some fire. That was not why she was called the girl on fire. It was because of her costume. AND, this is a hyperbole. The first one is a metaphor.
What are some examples of hyperbole in The Hunger Games?
When Cinna made Katniss' dress look like it was on fire.When the Capitol used fire rain to show that fire can be dangerous, and Katniss is dangerous to the Capitol. They were sending a message to Katniss saying 'Fire can warm you up, but when it is too powerful, it will burn everything in its wake'.When Cato and his followers used so many bombs to protect their food and to blow up anyone who will try to steal their food.When Peeta and Katniss decided to 'kill' themselves by 'eating' the nightlock so that the Capitol will have to make them both the victors and end the game.
What is the turning point in the Catching Fire?
There are several primary climaxes in the books. (Spoiler Alert): One turning point for Katniss is when she takes Rue on as an ally. Another is when they blow up the Careers' food supplies. The biggest climax in the middle of the book is when Katniss learns that both she and Peeta can make it out alive, and rescues and restores him to health. The main climax of the book throughout would be the final bout between Katniss, Cato, and Peeta; and Katniss outsmarting the gamemakers and almost committing suicide. A great book has many turning points, and these are the biggest in terms of character development and action scenes.
How does Katniss know something is wrong when she is looking for Rue?
Before going to blow up the food, Katniss and Rue came up with signals for each other. The signals were to tell each other that they were okay, and that they would be back soon. Rue was supposed to signal once she had lit every fire, and Katniss was supposed to signal once she had blown up the food. Katniss blew up the food and she triumphantly signaled Rue. But when she signaled, Rue did not signal back. Rue was supposed to be done her duty before Katniss. When Rue did not signal back, that was the point when Katniss knew something was wrong. Katniss tried to signal while looking for Rue in the woods, but there was no reply. Katniss found one unlit fire, and then she really knew soemthing was wrong. Eventually Rue screamed her name. Katniss found her caught in a netting trap beside one of the fires she was supposed to light. Katniss freed her, and they were getting ready to leave. But it was too late. Marvel, one of the Career tributes, speared Rue through the stomach. Katniss killed Marvel, then sang to Rue until she died. But the point when Katniss knew something was up, was when she saw one of the fires unlit, and when Rue wasn't replying to her signal.

What is the tone or mood of catching fire fire?
The tone changes throughout the story. Sometimes the tone is intense.**SPOILERS ALERT** Like when they are about to blow the cannon and the tributes are all standing on their plates in the arena. Sometimes it's happy. When Katniss tells Gale she wants to run away and he embraces her. But it can also be sad. Like at the very end Gale tells Katniss that there is no district twelve and when haymitch tells her that they couldnt save Peeta. Hope this helped (:

Why was Peeta Mellark captured in the second book of the hunger games?
Peeta is captured because he and Katniss are back in the Games, and when Beetee causes the arena's force field to blow out, the Capitol gets to Peeta before the Rebels can. They think that he might have Rebel information, although he does not, and at any rate, they know they can use him against Katniss.
