The Tributes

The beginning of the book, The Hunger Games, people are being selected to be part of fight for food and money in a futuristic country that is like no other country we have today. People are treated differently because some are poor in the 12 districts and have to do many things for the Capital, home of the rich people. “The Hunger Games” are entertaining for these wealthy people in the Capital, but for the people in the games, it is not good for them; if they lose, they die.The Hunger Games, by Suzanne Collins, helps readers understand that this kind of country is no place to live by describing action that helps the reader picture what is going on in a very realistic way.

Some people might be think why is there a Hunger Games. There is a Hunger Games for the rich people that live in the Capital which is a area for the rich people which is surrounded by the 12 Districts That are the smaller areas that the poor people live. Well like I was saying there is a Hunger games for the rich people that live in the Capital, but you might be thinking what is in it for they people that are chosen for the Hunger Games. The winner of the Hunger Games get lots of food and Money from the Capital.

As you can tell why there is a Hunger Games. What Happens in the Hunger Games though? Many things happen but most of it is the 12 Districts fighting and they Capital People watching. What you want to do is be safe though. Because a boy and a girl are both pick from each district so you want to be together the whole time. One thing you have to be is fast so you can run away from people.

Its is very hard because you have to work hard. But why do they do that in the Hunger Games? They do it for entertainment and food and money to win. They the stuff to help there family to get food and money because the families in the districts need lots of food and money because the capital has all it.

Realism found in The Hunger Games helps readers understand the book because what happens in the book you can imagine easier then in most books because if you can’t imagine it it’s hard to read. Plus most people don’t want to live in a country similar to the Districts and the Capital because if you lose in the Hunger Games you die.

Heroes

Authors Note: I wrote this book because I read a book about a guy who saved his co-workers from dieing. So he was like a hero to them. So writing about heroes was a good topic. So thats what I did.


Three men trapped under ground one man above ground to save them. So he gets right to it and starts saving them as fast as he can. There are a lot of heroes in the world but in the short article No Escape, by Lynn Rosellinia, man saved his co-workers from being trapped underground. Heroes can help us and society by keeping the world safe.

A lot of people in the world are heroes to me, but most heroes are that way because of what they do for their jobs:saving lives and keeping things safer. Some heroes are sports players, military members, parents, friends, firefighters, police, doctors, teachers, lifeguards, and some people that just save lives just because they want to like the man in No Escape Saving his co-workers.

Being a hero is a hard job because you have to do a lot of things. We need heroes for many reasons. Most of it is because we need the to save lives and keep many things safe. Some people though just do it so they can save live like the man in No Escape. More thing they do are have foundations for little kids or families with not a lot. Without heroes it wouldn't be good because It wouldn't be safe and there wouldn't be money to save people.

Heroes do many thing to the world, but why do we need them? We need heroes to keep things safe, to save lives, and pay to save kids lives. Being safe is the best thing but they can do much more. If there weren’t heroes the world wouldn’t be a good place to be. But we need heroes like the man in No Escape that aren’t a heroes in their job but they just want to help people or save their lives because that is the best way of being a hero.

Being a hero is a hard job because you have to do thing that help other people and can depend on their life. Remember that anyone can be a hero not just a person for their job. The article No Escape can teach a lot about being a hero.
