The reaping isn’t until two.
Who can help my explain expression " The reaping isn’t until two." It'll be good if you will be able explain it exactly.And twice it will be better if you will be able explain it exactly in Russian or comprehensive explanation in English too!

I think you must be reading The Hunger Games! Reaping means harvesting, as in a crop on a farm. In this book, it means choosing people for the game, not a word usually used for choosing people. This tells you they don't treat them as humans.
So the sentence means they will be choosing people at 2:00, not earlier.
