Birthday party
(Adopted from "The Lord of the Rings " by J.R.R. Tolkien)
I. Put in order
Bilbo Baggins called it a party, but it was really a variety of entertainments joined into one. Practically
everybody living near was invited.
1. But lunch and tea were marked chiefly by the fact that at those times all the guests were sitting down
and eating together. At other times there were lots of people eating and drinking continuously from
elevenses until sixthirty, when the fireworks started.
2. Many people from other parts of the Shire were also asked; and there were even a few from outside the
borders. Bilbo met the guests at the new white gate in person. He gave away presents to all the latter were
those who went out again by a back way and came in again by the gate. Hobbits give presents to other
people on their own birthdays. Not very expensive ones, as a rule; but it was not a bad system.
3. On this occasion the presents were unusually good. The hobbitchildren were so excited that for a while
they almost forgot about eating. There were toys which they had never seen before, all beautiful and some
magical. Many of them had indeed been ordered a year before, and had come all the way from the
Mountain, and were of real dwarfmake. When every guest had been welcomed and was finally inside the
gate, there were songs, dances, music, games, and, of course, food and drink. There were three official
meals: lunch, tea, and dinner (or supper).
4. Actually in Hobbiton every day in the year it was somebody's birthday, so that every hobbit in those
parts had a fair chance of at least one present at least once a week. But they never got tired of them.
5. The fireworks were by Gandalf: they were not only brought by him, but designed and made by him; and
the special effects, set pieces, and flights of rockets were let off by him. They were all superb. The art of
Gandalf improved with age.

'No need to tell us he's no good,' said Uncle Vernon, looking over the top of his newspaper at the
prisoner. 'Look at him, the lazybones! Look at his untidy hair!'
He gave a nasty look at Harry, whose untidy hair had always been a cause of great annoyance to
Uncle Vernon. Compared to the man on the television, however, whose face was rather strange
ugly and frightening, Harry felt very well indeed.
The newsreader had announced again.

V. Write down 6080 words about your favourite book or film. Suzanne Collins Hunger Games.
There must have been some mistake. This can't be happening. Prim was one slip of paper in
thousands! Her chances of being chosen so remote that I'd not even bothered to worry about her.
Hadn't I done everything? Taken the tesserae, refused to let her do the same? One slip. One slip in
thousands. The odds had been entirely in her favor. But it hadn't mattered. Somewhere far away, I
can hear the crowd murmuring unhappily as they always do when a twelveyearold gets chosen
because no one thinks this is fair. And then I see her, the blood drained from her face, hands
clenched in fists at her sides, walking with stiff, small steps up toward the stage, passing me, and I
see the back of her blouse has become untucked and hangs out over her skirt. It's this detail, the
untucked blouse forming a ducktail, that brings me back to myself.
"Prim!" The strangled cry comes out of my throat, and my muscles begin to move again.
"Prim!" I don't need to shove through the crowd. The other kids make way immediately allowing
me a straight path to the stage. I reach her just as she is about to mount the steps. With one sweep of
my arm, I push her behind me.
"I volunteer!" I gasp. "I volunteer as tribute!"
There's some confusion on the stage. District 12 hasn't had a volunteer in decades and the
protocol has become rusty. The rule is that once a tribute's name has been pulled from the ball,
another eligible boy, if a boy's name has been read, or girl, if a girl's name has been read, can step
forward to take his or her place. In some districts, in which winning the reaping is such a great
honor, people are eager to risk their lives, the volunteering is complicated. But in District 12, where
the word tribute is pretty much synonymous with the word corpse, volunteers are all but extinct.
"Lovely!" says Effie Trinket. "But I believe there's a small matter of introducing the reaping
winner and then asking for volunteers, and if one does come forth then we, um . . ." she trails off,
unsure herself.
"What does it matter?" says the mayor. He's looking at me with a pained expression on his
face. He doesn't know me really, but there's a faint recognition there. I am the girl who brings the
strawberries. The girl his daughter might have spoken of on occasion. The girl who five years ago
stood huddled with her mother and sister, as he presented her, the oldest child, with a medal of
valor. A medal for her father, vaporized in the mines. Does he remember that?
"What does it matter?" he repeats gruffly. "Let her come forward."
Prim is screaming hysterically behind me. She's wrapped her skinny arms around me like a
I swallow hard.
"Katniss Everdeen," I say.

vice. "No, Katniss! No! You can't go!"
"Prim, let go," I say harshly, because this is upsetting me and I don't want to cry. When they
televise the replay of the reapings tonight, everyone will make note of my tears, and I'll be marked
as an easy target. A weakling. I will give no one that satisfaction. "Let go!"
I can feel someone pulling her from my back. I turn and see Gale has lifted Prim off the
ground and she's thrashing in his arms.
"Up you go, Catnip," he says, in a voice he's fighting to keep steady, and then he carries
Prim off toward my mother. I steel myself and climb the steps.
"Well, bravo!" gushes Effie Trinket. "That's the spirit of the Games!" She's pleased to finally
have a district with a little action going on in it. "What's your name?" b) bones
