Explanation:
"To Rob, it seemed as if the tiger was some magic trick, rising out of the mist. He was so astounded at his discovery, so amazed, that he stood and stared." In that moment, the tiger made Rob forget about everything that was wrong in life. Rob is a 12-year-old boy who seemed depressed, thoughtless, and curious. One day as he was walking in the woods behind the Kentucky Star Motel, he noticed a tiger way out in the woods. At the beginning Rob was like a "closed suitcase". He tried not to express his feelings. Because the loss of his mother, he had a lot of hurt and sadness built up inside of him. The day that Rob found the tiger, he not only made a new discovery but he found a new Rob. At the beginning Rob was afraid to express his feelings, and never opened about anything. When Rob discovers the tiger and a new friend "Sistine", Rob begins to realize that he knows things that he didn't even realize he knew. He is becoming more aware of his own thoughts and feelings. Hope that helps!!!
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.
