Part 2
Are there any repeated words, rhymes or other special sound effects in this poem
In the first stanza, there is a line "Two roads diverged in a yellow wood". And in the last stanza, there is an expression "Two roads diverged in a wood". These two are almost the same.
This poem is written in rhyme. In each stanza, the last words of lines 1, 3, and 4 rhyme with each other. And the last word of line 2 rhymes with the last word of line 5. (In the first stanza, the rhymed words are: "wood" "stood" and "could"; "both" and "undergrowth". In the second stanza, the rhymed words are: "fair" "wear" and "there"; "claim" and "same". In the third stanza, the rhymed words are: "lay" "day" and "way"; "black" and "back". In the last stanza, the rhymed words are: "sigh" "I" and "by"; "hence" and "difference".
Listen again
1. What did the poet do when he faced the two roads and what might be his feeling
He looked at them one after another as far as he could and he felt undecided which to take.
2. Which road did the poet take finally and what did he think of his choice Which lines show his attitude to his choice
He took the less travelled road even though he was uncertain whether he had made the right choice. The lines that show his attitude are: "I doubted if I should ever come back." and "I shall be telling this with a sigh".
3. What image appears in your mind when you read the poem What are the words and expressions that help you see the image
I see a peaceful wood in the countryside, where few people go. I see this image from the following words and expressions: "Two roads diverged in a yellow wood", "it bent in the undergrowth", "it was grassy and wanted wear", "In leaves no step had trodden black", etc.
4. What do the two roads in the poem symbolize
The road itself symbolizes the journey of life. The image of the road forking off into two paths symbolizes the choices and opportunities we are presented with, which ultimately lead us into the unknown future that lies ahead of us.

Discussion
1. What message do you think the poem is trying to get across to readers
"The Road Not Taken" suddenly presents the poet and the reader with a dilemma. The central message is that, in life, we are often presented with choices. When making a choice, one is required to make a decision. Viewing a choice as a fork in a path, it becomes clear that we can only choose one direction or another, but not both. Any person who has made a decisive choice will agree that it is human nature to contemplate the "What if ..." of the choice you did not make. But who knows what the future holds down the road The poet implies that, when he is older, he might look back at this turning point in his life, the morning he took the road less travelled, because taking that particular route completely altered his way of being.
2. Have you ever been in a similar situation Connect your personal experience with the poem.
Yes. Standing at a crossroad, with four roads to choose from and with limited knowledge on where I should go, I don’t really know where a road will lead me until I take it. The only thing I have power over is the decisions that I will make, and how I will react to different situations.

1.诗歌的作者;
2.简要介绍这首诗的内容;
3.这首诗对你的启发。

A Nation's Strength
Not gold, but only men can make
A people great and strong;
Men who for truth and honor's sake
Stand fast and suffer long.
Brave men who work while others sleep,
Who dare while others fly…
They build a nation's pillars deep
And lift them to the sky.
The poem A Nation's Strength was written by American poet Ralph Emerson. In this poem, Emerson is full of praise for the backbone of his nation, whose people, for the sake of the truth and honor, fight and work selflessly and fearlessly.
From my perspective, these national heroes really deserve our respect. I am determined to devote my whole being to my country and I am convinced that with the dedication of many young people, our country is sure to become more prosperous.
Thank you
