3 District Three Reaping Read the excerpt: …Only they didn’t die off. Instead, the jabberjays mated with female mockingbirds, creating a whole new species that could replicate both bird whistles and human melodies. They had lost the ability to enunciate words but could still mimic a range of human vocal sounds, from a child’s high-pitched warble to a man’s deep tones. And they could recreate songs.

4 What is the most likely reason the author describes the mockingjay in such detail? a.To explain how they were used as weapons. b.To suggest they were beautiful birds with haunting melodies. c.It brought back memories of the intimate times Katniss spent with her father in the woods. d.The mockingjay became a whole new species through scientific experimentation.
