Which parts of this passage indicate that the motorcycle symbolizes freedom? Andrew felt trapped working the daily shift at the grocery store. It was the same routine every day-unending lines at the checkout counter, loud announcements over the
speaker, and the occasional rude customer. But his job helped pay the bills, so he tried not to complain.
His only relief came when his shift was over and he could head home on his motorcycle. As soon as he switched on the motorcycle's engine, he'd feel a rush of adrenaline. He
would give a hard kick on the pedal and the engine would roar to life. He'd start out slow, letting the wind sweep over him. A while later, he would increase the speed to keep
up with the motorists on the freeway.
Andrew always preferred the excitement of driving in the open air. Riding beside the motorists just made him feel superior to those who chose to drive a car instead of a
motorcycle.
As he headed home, he would dream of riding forever and never returning to his job. His bike always presented him with the opportunity to just quit everything. "Maybe one
day," he thought.
