Answer:

Wyatt gets stuck in the rough water.

Step-by-step explanation:

The short story "Into the Rapids" by Bradford H. Robie tells the one scene where a young boy named Wyatt fell into the rapids while on a rafting experience. The story follows the boy's courageous efforts to stay alive and overcome the obstacles, getting back safely to his raft.

While trying to get past a rapid on the "10-mile stretch of whitewater" on the Arkansas River, Wyatt was thrown out of the raft into the water. Right after he fell into the water, he was caught in the rough waters. The force of the water was so frightful, "toss[ing] him around, pummeling him with waves, pulling him under, thrusting him up." This was the scene immediately right after he was thrown off the raft.

Thus, the correct answer is the fourth option.
