Sugar is a taste we all want, a taste we all crave. People
throughout the planet everywhere have been willing to do
anything, anything at all, to get that touch of sweetness.
We even know exactly how thrilling it was to taste sugar
for the first time. When the Lewis and Clark Expedition
met up with the Shoshone, who had little previous
contact with Old World products, Sacagawea gave a tiny
piece of sugar to a chief. He loved it, saying it was "the
best thing he had ever tasted." Sugar created a hunger, a
need, which swept from one corner of the world to
another, bringing the most terrible misery and
destruction, but then, too, the most inspiring ideas of
liberty.

c.to compare several aspects of the tragedy to other worldwide tragedies

in a place once known as north america, now known as panem, is a very rich city surrounded by twelve districts. every year because this very rich city, known as the capitol, is so rich and likes to think they control all the districts - which they do - there is something known as the hunger games! this is where two children, one boy and one girl from each district from the ages of twelve to eighteen, have to leave their families and compete in the hunger games, a live event that is aired on tv's all over panem. when katniss everdeen, aged sixteen from district 12, has to volunteer to take the place of her twelve-year-old sister prim after prim's name is called forth to become the 23rd member to compete in the 74th hunger games, she promises to prim that she will win! katniss doesn't believe she's coming out alive - but she's not going down without a fight.

because district 12 is so poor, katniss has been close to death many times from starvation but she's made it through it. but this is a different kind of close to death; this katniss doesn't know if she can survive.

she doesn't want to hurt, or kill anyone but when it comes down to it katniss' instinct is to survive. but when she starts to have confusing feelings about the boy from her district who is also her fellow contender, things get worse, and then she teams up with the girl from district 11 and only one person can survive. but who will it be? will her feelings get the better of her? will she let someone else win so they don't have to die? if katniss is going to win she's going to have to be brutal. she's going to have to kill!

we should all just get dogs.
