1. From the information revealed in the article about Panem and Katniss, did the Capitol's rules diminish or

strengthen Katniss's spirit? Explain.

I couldn't find the article this question refers to online, but I can still guide you in how Katniss felt about Panem and respond based on that.

The Capitol's rules  strengthen Katniss's spirit.

Explanation:

Katniss was always a rebel who was against to how the Capitol was run. She even went hunting outside her district which was strictly prohibited. But she did it to look for food, since the wealth of Panem was poorly distributed, since the first districts had everything and the last ones did not even have anything to eat.

From the moment Katniss entered the hunger games, she began to be a threat to the Capitol, since she could incite more rebels to act like her. However, this only strengthened her. She took advantage of her popularity to reach those who were suffering, from her behavior with Rue to not wanting to kill anyone so as not to please the Capitol (except cases of life and death).

When The Capitol changes the rules stating that there will no longer be two winners, instead of succumbing and killing Peeta, Katniss gained more strength and revealed herself against them, trying to kill herself and Peeta at the same time, so that there would be no winners. Her bravery of that act against the Capitol worked and allowed her and Peeta to come out alive.
