Answer 1

Answer:

It changes from a symbol of freedom to a symbol of captivity.

Explanation:

Written by James Hurst, The Scarlet Ibis is a 1960 story that tells the story of 'Doodie', a boy who was born with several birth defects, and his Brother, who is also the narrator of the story. Doodie was not expected to live long after birth, but over time, he starts talking and interacting with others and even learns how to crawl, but can't walk. Brother resents having such a sick sibling, and tries to help Doodie become a "normal" human being.

When Daddy built a go-cart for Doodie, it was an improvement, since he no longer had to crawl or be carried everywhere. However, when Doodie starts demanding to be taken everywhere on his go-cart, Brother starts feeling trapped by it. It's in this sense that it changes from a symbol of freedom to a symbol of captivity. From giving some freedom of movement to Doodie, now both siblings became captives of the go-cart and of each other: Doodie depended on his Brother to pull his go-cart, while Brother had to take Doodie with him everywhere. Brother painted the picture of them as old men to illustrate this point, which in the end encouraged Doodie to learn how to walk.
