With many students addicted to their phones, it is starting to become a problem as time goes on. Students are going through their phones even while in class. This is shown to be a problem because students are not focusing on their studies. When teenagers are always on their phones. They can’t focus properly with the task on hand, this can affect their future immensely because if they get to the point of having to work on a thing they weren’t paying attention to achieve a goal that would become a problem for them if the student is more focus on their phones than their studies. While phones are helpful with our research, getting addicted to it is a problem and students are addicted to it.

"I just keep wishing I could think of a way to show them that they don't own me. You know, if I'm going to die, I want to still be me." - Peeta Mellark This quote is important to the theme of Hope and Rebellion because it shows that Peeta is starting to have hope for his life and the rebellion. It is also important to the theme of the struggle for power because he is struggling to stay alive while in the games.
"I must now become the actual leader, the face, the voice the embodiment of revolution." - Katniss Everdeen This is important to the theme of Hope and Rebellion because Katniss is starting to realise that she can be the start of a new life for the not only her district but the other district who are also suffering.
"Happy Hunger Games! And may the odds be ever in your favour." - Effie Trinket
This is also very important to the theme of hope and rebellion because the odds are never in the favour of the districts and this can spark a rebellion against the Capitol.
"Hope, it is the only thing stronger than fear. A little hope is effective, a lot of hope is dangerous. A spark is fine, as long as it's contained." - President Snow, This shows that President Snow is afraid of hope and he wants hope to be contained, he wants hope to be just a spark where in just a few seconds it's gonna disappear.
