Are you Hungry?


Authors Note: in this two paragraph writing piece, I wrote about the conflicts and resolutions in the book Hunger Games. Please give me any feedback if you think any changes need to be made.  


Visualize being trapped in a arena full of other teenagers wanting to kill you so they can stay alive and be the outright winner of the Hunger Games. In the Hunger Games there are many conflicts like Katniss having to leave her family and sadness that Katniss and her mom and sister experienced, the biggest conflict of the story though was  Katniss fighting for her life against 23 other contestants wanting to kill her.

In Hunger Games there were many conflicts that sometimes would drive Katniss crazy, but towards the end of the book most of these conflicts were resolved in different ways. The main conflict of the story is an example of a person vs. person as Katniss fights for her life against 23 other contestants. There is a little of person vs. nature in the story, because at one point of the book it talks about these poisonous bees attacking the contestants in the games.One connection I can make with the main conflict of the story, is when I'm playing paintball it's me verses 9 other people fighting for their life not to get hit by a paintball. Even though Katniss had to go through all of hard times she faced in the games like starvation, being attacked by people, and seeing people in her alliance die, beyond all of these conflicts all of them were resolved including the main conflict from Katniss winning the Hunger Games.
