Key members of what would later be known as the beat generation, including Allen Ginsberg, Jack Kerouac, and Neal Cassady, met at Columbia University in the mid-1940s. From the beginning, youthful rebellion was a basic element of the beat movement. . . . The beat movement had strong ties to San Francisco, which became a center of the counterculture. Like the beats, some members of the counterculture were politically active, and some simply “dropped out.” Ginsberg, through his antiwar activities and spiritual quests, remained a hero to both wings of the counterculture. Based on this passage and what you have learned about the beat movement and the Vietnam era, why is Ginsberg thought of as "a hero to both wings of the counterculture"?

A. He changed his mind about US conformity after he became political in the 1960s.

B. He dropped out of mainstream in the 1960s after his heyday with the beats in the 1950s.

C. He knew Kerouac and Cassady, who were connected with San Francisco counterculture.

D. He connected to both the beat generation rebellion and anti-Vietnam War activities.

in a place once known as north america, now known as panem, is a very rich city surrounded by twelve districts. every year because this very rich city, known as the capitol, is so rich and likes to think they control all the districts - which they do - there is something known as the hunger games! this is where two children, one boy and one girl from each district from the ages of twelve to eighteen, have to leave their families and compete in the hunger games, a live event that is aired on tv's all over panem. when katniss everdeen, aged sixteen from district 12, has to volunteer to take the place of her twelve-year-old sister prim after prim's name is called forth to become the 23rd member to compete in the 74th hunger games, she promises to prim that she will win! katniss doesn't believe she's coming out alive - but she's not going down without a fight.

because district 12 is so poor, katniss has been close to death many times from starvation but she's made it through it. but this is a different kind of close to death; this katniss doesn't know if she can survive.

she doesn't want to hurt, or kill anyone but when it comes down to it katniss' instinct is to survive. but when she starts to have confusing feelings about the boy from her district who is also her fellow contender, things get worse, and then she teams up with the girl from district 11 and only one person can survive. but who will it be? will her feelings get the better of her? will she let someone else win so they don't have to die? if katniss is going to win she's going to have to be brutal. she's going to have to kill!
