        【内容简介】
        　 北美洲在一场大战后被摧毁，在美国原来的废墟上，人们建立了新的家园，但新政权规定：管辖下的12个地区每年都必须进贡少年男女，参加一档电视直播节目“饥饿游戏”（Hunger Game）。节目的规则很简单——杀人或者被杀。凯妮丝Katniss Everdeen（詹妮弗·劳伦斯 Jennifer Lawrence 饰）的妹妹不幸在12区“选择日”时被选中，由于要保护妹妹，凯妮丝自告奋勇要替妹妹上场 。她不得不与心上人盖尔Gale Hawthorne（利亚姆·海姆斯沃斯 Liam Hemsworth 饰）分开，跟同时被选为12区贡品代表的皮塔Peeta Mellark（乔什·哈切森 Josh Hutcherson 饰）进入游戏……选段中，因为群众们的愤怒抗议，游戏者不得不修改规则：允许两名获胜者，但是条件是必须来自同一区……
        【选段台词】
        Teamer(male): If you can't scare them, give them something to root for.
        Seneca: Such as?
        Teamer(male): Young love.
        Mayor: So you like an underdog?
        Seneca: Everyone likes an underdog.
        Mayor: I don't. Have you been out of there? 10? 11? 12?
        Seneca: Not personally. No.
        Mayor: Well, I have. There are lots of underdogs. Lots of coal, too. Grow crops, minerals, things we need. There are lots of underdogs. And I think if you could see them. You would not root for them either. I like you. Be careful.
        Broadcast: Attention, Tributes, Attention. The regulations requiring a single victor have been suspended. From now on, two victors may be crowned if both originate from the same district. This will be the only announcement.
        Katniss: Peeta.
        (Finding Peeta)
        Katniss: Oh, my god! Peeta! Peeta!
        Peeta: Hi.
        Katniss: It's okay. What was it?
        Peeta: A sword. It's bad, huh?
        Katniss: It's gonna be fine.
        Peeta: Katniss. Katniss.
        Katniss: No! I'm not gonna leave you. I'm not gonna do that.
        Peeta: Why not?
        Katniss: Nobody's gonna find you in here.
        Peeta: They already found me.
        Katniss: We'll just get your some medicine.
        Peeta: Katniss, I don't get many parachutes.
        Katniss: We'll figure something out.
        Peeta: Like what?
        Katniss: Something.
        Peeta: Medicine?
        Katniss: No. Soup. I'll do it.
        Peeta: That's nice.
        Katniss: You fed me once.
        Peeta: I think about that all the time. How I tossed you that bread.
        Katniss: Peeta...
        Peeta: I should have gone to you. I should have just gone out in the rain and...
        Katniss: You feel hot.
        Peeta: I remember the first time I saw you. Your hair in two braids instead of one. And I remember when you sang in the music assembly. "Who knows The Valley Song?" And you hand shot straight up.
        Katniss: Stop.
        Peeta: After that, I watched you going home every day. Every day.
        Katniss: Well, say something.
        Peeta: I'm not good at saying something.
        Katniss: Then come here. Please. Even if I don't make it...
        Peeta: Stop it.
        Broadcast: Attention, Tributes. Attention. Commencing at sunrise, there will be a feast tomorrow at the Cormucopia. This will be no ordinary occasion. Each of you needs something desperately. And we plan to be generous hosts.
        Katniss: Your medicine.
        Peeta: You're not going alone.
        Katniss: Yeah? You need it, and you can't walk.
        Peeta: Katniss, you're not gonna risk your life for me. I'm not gonna let you.
        Katniss: You would do it for me. Wouldn't you?
        Peeta: Why are you doing this?
        (Kiss)
        Peeta: Now there's no way I'm letting you go.
        Katniss: Peeta...
        Peeta: Please. Stay.
        Katniss: Okay.
        Peeta: I'll stay.

        【重点词汇】
        1. root for
        意为“支持”。那个一直支持Katniss的设计师对Seneca说道：“如果你不能使群众害怕停止暴行的话，就支持他们。”之后，便有了修改游戏规定的一幕,爱情可以让群众动容。
        2. from now on
        “From now on”意为"从现在开始"。终于，游戏者抵不住群众的压力，改变了规定，可以有两位胜利者，但是要在一定的条件下。
        3. originate from
        “从现在开始，两位贡品将可被加冕，但是前提是必须来自同一地区。” “originate from”意为“来自”，“起源于”。
        4. figure out
        “我们会找到办法的。”当Peeta自责没有找到降落伞，Katniss安慰他天无绝人之路，总会找到办法的。本意为“计算出”，“解决”，“弄明白”，“合计”。
