https://padlet.com/nedohonmad/5fick4vn9461 How do these two pieces of literature create similar themes about human nature? en-us 2017-09-13 19:33:57 UTC 2025-11-18 06:58:17 UTC hello@padlet.com nedohonmad https://padlet.com/nedohonmad/5fick4vn9461/wish/187341518 During the reaping, Katniss' sister was picked to go fight other people from the other 11 districts. Katniss was not happy about this, she didn't want her little sister going to get a death sentence for living and trying to do something the government leader wants her to do.    
  Their president wants people to go fight each other for the people' s plain entertainment. I don't think that anyone but the president, Mr. Snow, likes to watch people kill each other so that they win food and fame. ]]> 2017-09-13 19:39:41 UTC https://padlet.com/nedohonmad/5fick4vn9461/wish/187341518 nedohonmad https://padlet.com/nedohonmad/5fick4vn9461/wish/189586452 The Lottery is a story about a stoning that happens every year on the 27th of june. By the title of the story, The Lottery, it seems as if people would get money and they would all have a good time; however, none of this is true. The Lottery is when you get picked to be stoned as a sacrifice for the crops. Tessie was the person who was picked to be stoned. In the beginning of the story, she doesn't think about what is really going on. Then, towards the end of the story, she now wants her daughter to draw with their family because her husband picked the paper with the black dot. If you don't understand why she is trying to get her daughter to draw, it is because you have to read between the lines. Tessie was trying to get her daughter to draw because she wanted to decrease her chance of being picked. ]]> 2017-09-21 02:15:19 UTC https://padlet.com/nedohonmad/5fick4vn9461/wish/189586452 nedohonmad https://padlet.com/nedohonmad/5fick4vn9461/wish/189589754 There is irony in human nature in both of these stories. Saying that the Hunger Games is to fin out who gets to win a basket of food is good when you are going and killing your friends is irony, when you read the title of The Lottery you think of money, this is the complete opposite. People are killing each other for the enjoyment of other people. ]]> 2017-09-21 02:38:34 UTC https://padlet.com/nedohonmad/5fick4vn9461/wish/189589754 nedohonmad https://padlet.com/nedohonmad/5fick4vn9461/wish/189590476     In the story they both have to do with killing. In The Lottery, you get stoned. In the Hunger Games, you get killed by other people to win a basket of food. Both seem to be good things, but really when you look into depth of both stories, you find that these stories are very traumatizing to read. 
   There are also no age limit restrictions. This means no matter how old or young you are, you still perform in the stonin from The Lottery or the killing of each other in The Hunger Games.  
    In both stories names are being drawn from either a box or a bowl of some sort. 
    Both have to do with tradition. The Lottery is a tradition because they have been killing people for a sacrifice since before old man Warner was alive. In The Hunger Games people have always enjoyed in the Reaping and the actual games itself, therefore becoming a tradition that happens every year. ]]> 2017-09-21 02:42:11 UTC https://padlet.com/nedohonmad/5fick4vn9461/wish/189590476
