Detailed explanation-1: -The speaker asks her if she has done her homework, cleaned her room and shoes. The girl wishes that she should be an orphan roaming freely in the dusty streets.
Detailed explanation-2: -She says so because she wants to be alone. She wants to roam around in the street alone and pattern dust with her bare feet. She finds silence ‘golden’ and freedom ‘sweet’. It is for this reason that she calls herself an orphan.
Detailed explanation-3: -Answer: Amanda seems to be fed up with continuous instructions and naggings. She is feeling that her freedom is curtailed. So, she imagines herself to be an orphan street child who leaves imprints caused on the soft dust by her bare feet.
Detailed explanation-4: -Solution: Amanda is a little girl and, Amanda’s mother instructed her to clean up her room. Also, she instructed Amanda on how to clean up her shoes.
Detailed explanation-5: -Amanda wishes to be a mermaid so she could drift alone by blissfully languid, emerald sea. She yearns to be an orphan so that she is able to roam the sea (streets) and make pattern using her bare feet in dust. Being Rapunzel means she could live carefree on a high tower.
