"The Road Not Taken" is literally about a traveler who comes to a fork in the road. Explain how the poem could be understood as

a metaphor for choices in life. How do you think the narrator feels about the choices he has made in life? Choose words from the poem that support your answer. How do these words affect the feeling, or "tone"?
This is the poem for you to read.

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;

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,

Thank you so much

<em>"The Road Not Taken"</em> poem, written by Robert Frots(1864-1963), tries to describe the moment an individual needs to make a decision and he has a disjunctive.

The metaphor he uses in "<em>...And looked down one as far as I could...</em>", implies that no decision is the appropriate one because nobody can assure you the results once the decision is taken.

Change is constant in life. And with change comes uncertainty. Every decision we must make is a risky one. A person must show composure when he or she needs to decide among two or more options.

On the part of <em>"Then took the other one, as just as fair..."</em>, we can see that one or the other, the option we take has its advantages or disadvantages. The element of uncertainty is always present. That is why we need to always be prepared and trust in ourselves.

Robert Frost was a four-time Pulitzer Prize winner in poetry.

Anton [14]

Answer:

The Dust Bowl was a devestating event in American History. The Dust Bowl was a period of time when dust covered multiple regions of the United states but eventually effected the entire country. The Dust Bowl survivors fled to the city of California to escape the dust in their hometowns. The survivors were viewied diffrently by the residents of California. Some viewed the survivors as refugees struglling to live while others viewed them as intruders competing for land and jobs in california. 

The Dust Bowl started in 1930 when severe drought started to hit the regions and in 1931 massive dust storms began to happen. By 1934 an estimated 35 million acres of formerly cultivated land had been rendered useless for farming, while another 125 million acres was rapidly losing its topsoil. The Dust killed many livestock and other animals that got in its way. The people living in the Dust Bowl areas were starting to escape the dust and go to California to start a new life. The citizens of California had diffrent viewpoints towards the survivors. Some viewed them as intruders competing for land and wealth in California while other viewed them as refugees escaping a natural disaster that they had no control over. The survivors just wanted to live in peace and make a living in california. The survivors were refugees because they just wanted to survive and if they had the intention to make money and be wealthy they would have done that before the Dust Bowl occured.

The Dust Bowl was a devestating event in the US history that affected all of the US. The survivors of the dust bowl were refugees with no intention of getting rich hoping to live and survive.

Based on the information given, the story that will be written about is Wonder by Palacio.

<h3>How to explain the story?</h3>

It should be noted that the author of the literary work titled Wonder is R.J Palacio. The protagonist in the story is August Matthew Pullman. The protagonist simply means the leading character on the story.

The decision that the protagonist faced in the climax of the story is how to defeat the antagonist and then reach the goal of the story.

The falling action in the story is illustrated when Auggie was going for his graduation and was dressed up. He then goes to the auditorium with Summer and was given the greatness award. The falling action comes after the climax.

The protagonist has changed in the story because when he first started school, he was regarded as a freak by other students but at the end of the story, he was accepted for who he was and seen as a nice, young man.
