How does Katniss try and solve the conflict in The Hunger Games?

Answer 1

There are many conflicts in The Hunger Games. The first conflict is her sister, Prim, getting picked for the Games. She tries to solve this conflict by volunteering herself in place of her sister.

Obviously, the Games are possibly the greatest conflict in the first book. Katniss is not "comfortable" with killing the others in cold blood, but she isn't sure how long she can keep up just keeping up with defense. There's also the romance factor, she doesn't want to have to kill Peeta. She tries to solve the Peeta conflict by her and Peeta threatening the Gamemakers with the fact that they would commit suicide by eating poisonous berries; and it works. The two are spared the Horror of killing each other, and of dying from poison, but then are attacked by "Muttations" of the other players of the games, including Katniss' old friend Rue. Katniss tries to solve this conflict by focusing on the fact that it's just Mutts with the player's color eyes.

Of course that's just The Hunger Games. "Catching Fire" and "Mockingjay" have even more conflicts that rooted in the first book and blossomed into the exciting series.

Answer 2

The Hunger Games chapter 7 summary :)

• Katniss is in the Remake Center getting her legs waxed by Venia, "a woman with aqua hair and gold tattoos about her eyebrows" (5.1). She's also been scrubbed clean and had her nails done. The only thing they've left the same is the braid her mother had arranged.
• The last remaining hairs are plucked clean by her prep team (Octavia, Flavius, and the aforementioned Venia - all decked out with crazy hair and dyed skin), and they call in her head stylist, Cinna.
• Cinna arrives and Katniss is impressed with how normal and attractive he looks. His voice lacks the affected accent most people have in the Capitol.
• Cinna compliments Katniss's braid, and she realizes that Cinna is a new stylist for the Hunger Games. He reveals that he asked specifically for District 12.
• Cinna and Katniss have lunch, an exorbitant spread that would never be seen back in District 12. Katniss wonders what it would be like to live in such a place.
• Cinna reads Katniss's thoughts and comments that they must all seem despicable to her.
• The two discuss Katniss's outfit for the opening ceremony. Usually the get-up has to do with the industry of the district. This means coal-mining. Katniss expects a coal miner outfit, but Cinna says no, this year, they're focusing instead on coal.
• He asks Katniss if she is afraid of fire.
• We jump forward a few hours and Katniss is dressed in a black unitard and a streaming orange, yellow, and red cape - that Cinna plans to set ON FIRE during her chariot ride to the stadium.
• Peeta shows up, and he is dressed identically. The two soon find themselves in the chariot, making jokes about extinguishing one another. Then the opening music begins.
• The chariot from each district starts moving along in the parade until it's time for District 12 - that's when Cinna lights both Katniss and Peeta on fire. Fortunately, the plan works and no one burns to death.
• Before they pull out, Cinna motions that Peeta and Katniss hold hands. The chariot then enters the city.
• The crowd loves the outfits - and they cheer accordingly. Katniss starts to feel a little hope. Someone throws her a rose, and she catches it. She blows kisses.
• The chariots arrive at President Snow's mansion for his speech. Katniss can see on the jumbo-tron that she and Peeta are getting lots of screen time.
• The national anthem plays, the chariots make a final circle around parade route, and then back to the Training Center.
• Katniss and Peeta are still gripping hands, and they joke about it. He tells her that she should wear flames more often (flirty flirty!) and he smiles.
• Warning bells go off in Katniss's head: do not flirt with this boy because you might start to like him and then HE IS GOING TO KILL YOU.
• Then, she realizes that two can play this game. She reaches on tiptoe and kisses his cheek.

Answer 3

It depends on what you mean by that. There are many problems, and the Hunger Games themselves are the biggest one. But, because the question was 'What is the solution to the problem in the Hunger Games?' i cannot effectively answer your question.

They solved the Hunger Games themselves by all twelve districts rebelling against the Capitol, igniting a war. The districts win, and the Capitol becomes overcome. President Snow dies.

Answer 4

Well, the problem is never really SOLVED until the last book, but in the end of The Hunger Games, she decides that they are not just one piece in the Capitol's games, so she and Peeta each take a Nightlock berry (the poisonous one used to kill Foxface) and eat it at the same time. They both live after being announced the winners, but the trouble only begins for Katniss...

Answer 5

katniss and peeta are the only two left and they both agree to eat the poison berries to kill them selves to show the game makers that they are not the boss of them, but right before they do it the game makers declare a game victory for both peeta and katniss.
