Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. When Katniss dropped the tracker jacker nest on the Careers, she killed Glimmer. There was another tribute who was killed. Which district was that tribute from?

Answer: District 4

The movie does not show how the tribute girl from district 4 died. The book makes it clear that the girl from 4 was killed in the attack. The book says she ran away and died from the stings. Katniss never heard the cannon due to the hallucinations. She found out about it from Rue.
2. To whom do Katniss and Gale sell the strawberries?

Answer: The Mayor of District 12

Katniss remembers that the Mayor likes strawberries and won't turn her in. She learned this from her father.
3. What did Katniss receive from District 11 after she decorated the body of Rue with flowers?

Answer: Bread

She received the bread after she decorated Rue's body with flowers. She knew it was from 11 because Peeta told her the differences in the way breads were made from district to district.
4. Who or what does Rue love most of all?

Answer: Music

Rue says her family sing together after work. When Rue is killed, her last request is for Katniss to sing. Katniss is surprised by the request and sings her a lullaby. Katniss receives the bread from District 11 as thanks for what Katniss has done for Rue.
5. As punishment for District 13's rebellion, the other 12 districts have to send two tributes, one boy and one girl as tribute. Which of these pairs were NOT from the same district?

Answer: Cato and Glimmer

All the others were from the same district. Thresh and Rue were from 11. Clove and Cato were from 2. Marvel and Glimmer were from 1. Cato and Glimmer hang around each other since they are both considered Career Tributes.
6. How many tributes does Katniss kill both directly and indirectly?

Answer: 4

She killed Glimmer and the girl from District 4 in the Tracker Jacker attack. She shot Marvel in the neck after he stabbed Rue. She killed Cato as a mercy kill because he was being ripped to pieces by the muttations.
7. What is the name of the berries that Foxface ate that ultimately led to her death?

Answer: Nightlock

She ate the berries that Peeta picked. When Katniss heard the cannon and saw the berries she thought Peeta was the one who died. Peeta felt bad that his ignorance killed someone.
8. District 12 is often overlooked as a non-competitor. For years nothing exciting happened. What happened at the reaping that shocked everyone?

Answer: Someone volunteered for another tribute

No one had volunteered for someone in District 12 for so long that the rules became "rusty". To those in District 12, tribute was the same as corpse.
9. Katniss refers to many victors in the book. As she and Peeta board the train she finds that Peeta makes no attempt to cover up the fact he is crying. Which victor does she refer to?

Answer: Johanna Mason

Peeta is upset that he was chosen as tribute. Katniss originally believes that this is his strategy to portray himself as weak and a non-competitor. Katniss is reminded of a previous victor named Johanna Mason who used that strategy. Katniss describes Johanna originally as a non-contender, but then says Johanna could kill viciously and ended up winning her Games.
10. Katniss' major strength is her archery skills, but she cannot get to the bow and arrows on the first day because she is distracted by Peeta's glare. Who has them?

Answer: Glimmer

Katniss saw them on Glimmer twice: once when she was being hunted by the Careers and again before the tracker jacker attack. Katniss obtained them after the attack.
