2) The hero Katniss takes on a physical and mental contest . The hunger games . Where she has to compete for her against rival districts . In this contest Katniss uses her strength (physical) and brain (mental). Taking on many different tasks along the way
3) Katniss lost her father when she was young. Her father was a big influence for her and taught her how to hunt. Without her father she wouldn't have been good in the hunger games Or worse got killed and not able to be a hero. When her father died it in only made her stronger. That built her to be a hero later on in the book.

6) The hero Katniss grows up in a rural area called district 12 away from the Capital. District 12 is very poor and Katniss has to hunt for her own food as well for her family. District 12 has never won a Hunger Games that is why it was such a big deal that Katniss wins the games. It also gives the district hope because they are such outsiders.

10) Katniss is definitely a special and one of a kind character who represents a culture or nation. Katniss is definetly special because she one the hunger games and tons of people get murdered in the games and Katniss was the one of the last two standing. She also is a special and one of kind character because she changed the games forever when she almost killed herself in the games for love. The culture she Is representing is her district, district 12 and they could not be happier to have a winner of the games from their district
