Describe the overall tone of the poem "The Road Not Taken" and explain how the author's specific word choice contributes to this

tone. How is this tone reflected in the meaning of the poem? Your answer should be 5-7 sentences.
The Road Not Taken
by Robert Frost

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,

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.

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.

Answer:

Robert Frost's poem “The Road Not Taken” discusses the choices that a person may face in his life. The tone of the poem is serious and does not necessarily have an optimistic outlook. On the other hand, the poem is not about good and evil. It is about selecting the right approach to life through making decisions.

1. What can you infer from this dialogue from the diary of anne frank, act 1?
Elodia [21]

1. Anne is outgoing, Peter is shy.


In the dialogue Anne invites Peter but Peter says he's a lone wolf. This shows that Anne wants to be around others, while Peter prefers to stay by himself because of his shy nature.


2. "I've got to fight the things out for myself!"


In this piece of dialogue, Anne is showing that she is still trying to figure out the world on her own and make her own decisions. She does not want someone intervening on her behalf.


3. "I spend half my night shushing her."


It is clear from this piece of dialogue that Mr. Dussel is becoming frustrated with the idea that he has to stay up at night and shows the conflict between them growing.


4. Anne states will go to Paris or be a famous dancer and the audience knows she will not get a chance to do these things.


Dramatic irony is when the audience knows something the characters on stage do not. In this case, the audience knows that Anne will not survive the Holocaust and therefore not be able to go to Paris or become a dancer.


5. Unbearable


Peter is a quiet observant child. He is not hurtful or purposefully unfriendly. He can be unbearable in Anne's opinion sometimes.
