Even though training tributes before the Games begin is technically illegal, the career districts generally get away with this because of their wealth and closer ties to the Capitol. The willingness and in some cases even enjoyment to kill their opponents before the Games even start, cultivated from years of preparation and the support of their families and fellow district citizens, gives Careers a tremendous mental and psychological advantage over the other tributes.

It's also one way to tell whether the students actually read the book or paid attention to the read-aloud.
