3. 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 林中两路分，可惜难兼行，游子久伫立，极目望一径。蜿蜒复曲折。隐于丛林中。 我选另一途，合理亦工整。草密人迹罕，正待人通行。足迹踏过处，两路皆相同。 Lead-in Activity Read the poem by Robert Frostwith emotion.What do you think is it about? The Road Not Taken 未选之路

4. 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. 两路林中伸，落叶无人踪。他日选另路，深知路无穷。我疑从今后，能否转回程。 多少年以后，谈起长叹息。林中两路分，一路人迹稀。我独选此路，境遇乃相异。 Poem About Life Choices 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. 两路林中伸，落叶无人踪。他日选另路，深知路无穷。我疑从今后，能否转回程。 多少年以后，谈起长叹息。林中两路分，一路人迹稀。我独选此路，境遇乃相异。 A narrator makes a decision that has changed the direction of his life from what it may have otherwise been.
