4. Instruction:
Read the poem aloud one by one
the Road Not Taken
Two road diverged in a yellow wood,
And sorry I could travel both
And be one traveler, long I stood
And looked down one as far as I could
To where it bent in 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 the 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 never 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 travelled by
And that has made all the difference (Robert Frost)
