The plot (adapted from Wikipedia) (CE)
The Hunger Games story takes place in an unspecified future time in the totalitarian nation of
Panem. The country consists of the wealthy Capitol located in the Rocky Mountains and
twelve (formerly thirteen) poorer districts ruled by the Capitol. The Capitol is extremely
rich and technologically advanced but the twelve districts are in varying states of poverty –
the
narrator and protagonist, Katniss Everdeen, lives in District 12, the poorest region of
Panem, formerly1 known as Appalachia, where people regularly die of starvation2. As
punishment for a past rebellion against the Capitol twelve districts (out of thirteen) were
defeated and the thirteenth supposedly3 destroyed, one boy and one girl from each of the
twelve districts, between the ages of twelve and eighteen, are selected by lottery to
participate in the "Hunger Games" every year. The Games are a televised event with the
participants, called "tributes", being forced to fight to the death in a dangerous public arena.
The winning tribute and his/her home district is then rewarded4 with food, and supplies5 and
riches. The purpose of the Hunger Games is to provide6 entertainment for the Capitol and to
serve as a reminder to the Districts of the Capitol's power and lack of remorse7.

THE PASSIVE VOICE
RAPPEL GRAMMATICAL :
Le passif peut apparaître dans cinq structures en anglais, alors qu’en français, on ne peut le trouver que dans
l’équivalent des deux premières.
I.
Passif simple : to be + participe passé (complément d’agent introduit par “by”)
Exemple: Hamlet was written by Shakespeare.
II.
Passif avec modal : modal + be + participe passé
Exemple: The T.V. set must be repaired.
III.
Passif progressif ( ou continu ) : to be + being + participe passé
Exemple: A new school is being built.
IV.
Passif avec pré ou post-position : to be + participe passé + pré / post-position
Exemple: She was often laughed at.
V.
Passif “anglais” ou “double passif” :
Le sujet du passif est une personne qui serait un complément d’attribution (ou complément d’objet second)
dans la phrase équivalente à la voix active.
Exemple: He was promised a prize.
A prize was promised to him.
