结构Structure:Four stanzas of five lines\\Rhyme scheme: ABAAB\\Four stressed syllables each line, varying on iambic tetrameter base(Iambic tetrameter is a meter in poetry. It refers to a line consisting of four iambic feet. The word tetramater simply means that there are four feet in the line. Iambic tetremeter is a line comprising four iambs.)\\\ Symbolism 象征手法:For example, “road” on one hand refers to natural road; on the other hand, it refers to the road of life.\\\\ Conclusion:The Road Not Taken is full of philosophical overtones（暗示、弦外之音）. This poem should be read as a warning. Man should consider a lot before making choices and reflect over the choices he has made to discover “all the differences”.\\ The poem tries to achieve a universal understanding. In other words, there is no judgment, no specificity, no moral. It allows all readers from all different experiences to relate to the poem. \\ The Road Not Taken tells about life choice. Man’s life is metaphorically related to a journey filled with twists and turns. One has to consider a lot before making a wise choice. Though the diverged roads seem identical, they actually lead to different directions, which symbolize different fates.\\ 第一段;Two roads diverged in a yellow wood,\\And sorry I could not travel both\\And be one traveler, long I stood\\And looked down one as far as I could\\To where it bent in the undergrowth--\\\\分析：“road”is a symbolic use. From the surface meaning,it means the natural road as he can see;from the deep meaning, it means the road of life penetrated in human beings.\\“sorry” expresses the strong feeling of regret. He could only travel one road, and in return to give up the other, which is similar to human choice.\\“long” and the last two lines indicate the poet’s hesitation to which road to take; whereas he still couldn’t make a decision.\\\\ Summary: In the first stanza, the speaker describes his position--the conflict between the common easy path and the exceptional challenging one.here are two roads he would like to try out both, but doubts he could do that. \\\\ 第二段：Then took the other, as just as fair,\\And having perhaps the better claim,\\Because it was grassy and wanted wear;\\Though as for that the passing there\\Had worn them really about the same, \\ 分析：Why it is the “better claim” may be that “it was grassland wanted wear”, which means the path appears to be kept naturally.\\ The fact that Frost took this path over the more popular, secure one indicates the type of personality he has, one that does not want to necessarily follow the crowd but do more of what has never been done, what is new and different.\\ The path Frost took appears to be different from the other one, but as he thinks about it, he realizes that the two roads have the same characteristics.\\ Summary:Frost reports that he decided to take the other path, because it seemed to have less traffic than the first.\\But then he goes on to say that they actually were very similarly worn. \\This stanza reflects our human’s choice. At first you seem to be confused by two perspective facets, finally you realize that whatever choices you make, the results are the same. 第三段：And both that morning equally lay\\In leaves no step had trodden black.\\Oh, I kept the first for another day!\\Yet knowing how way leads on to way,\\I doubted if I should ever come back.\\ Summary of Stanza 3：The third stanza continues with the cogitation（仔细思考） about the possible differences between the two roads.He claims that maybe he would come back and also walk the first one sometime, but he doubted he would be able to, because in life one thing leads to another and time is short. 分析：Frost realizes that the decision is not just a temporary one and he ("doubtedif I should ever come back." )\\This is his common sense speaking and acknowledging that what he chooses now will affect every other choice he makes afterward. Once you have performed an act or spoken a word that crystallizes（具体化，计划成型） who you are, there is no turning back and it cannot be undone.\\ “I” not only refers to Frost himself, but also has a universally symbolic meaning. Each time when a person comes to the point where he has to make a choice, it is new to him, somewhere he has never been and he tends to feel as though no one else had ever been there either. 第四段：I shall be telling this with a sigh\\Somewhere ages and ages hence:\\Two roads diverged in a wood, and I—\\I took the one less traveled by,\\And that has made all the difference.\\\ 分析：“sigh” has two references:a sigh of regret and a sigh of relief.\\“difference”:If it is the relief sigh, then the difference means Frost was glad he took the road he did; if it is the regret sigh, then the difference would not be good, and he would be sighing in regret.\\ The last two lines are ironic:the choice made little or no difference at all, the speaker's protestations to the contrary. \\\ Summary of Stanza 4:At the end of the poem the regret hangs over the poem. \\Frost realizes that at the end of his life, "somewhere ages and ages hence", he will have regrets about having never gone back and traveling down the roads he did not take. \\To this man, what was most important, what really made the difference, is that he did what he wanted, even if it meant taking the road less traveled. If he hadn't, he wouldn't be the same man he is now.\\\ 本文来源：https://www.wddqw.com/doc/c5db1d34b4360b4c2e3f5727a5e9856a5612260b.html
