Answer:
To emphasize the Atticus's empathetic nature, his respect and consideration towards everyone, which later on serves to save him from a difficult situation.
Explanation:
Atticus discusses crops with Walter Cunningham because he knows that it is a topic Walter would understand, Walter only goes to school because he has to and not because he wants to, so asking him about school would have been pointless.
Atticus puts himself in Walter Cunnigham's shoes and treats him respectfully, talking to him about something he actually understand to show that he respects him no matter where he comes from.
This respectful treatment of others would save him later on from a mob lynching lead by Walter's father.
The correct answer is going on a first date.
This Gary Soto’s poem, <em>Oranges</em>, describes the feelings of a boy going on a first date, most probably, for the first time in his life. That is the reason why we can say that the poem depicts a rite of passage, because this was a significant turning point in his life.
The first date is described as the first time he walked with a girl. He picks her up. She is wearing make-up. The physical contact between them is shy and gentle and he leds her down the street. He invites her a chocolate bar and the poet keeps on describing his thoughts an feelings to vividly recreate that passage from being a naive boy to a hormonal teenager.
