读《未选择的路》的读后感1读了这篇弗罗斯特的诗《未选择的路》,颇有深感。

对于我们在成长道路上前进的学子们寓意深刻。

这个“路”字,有两种解释,一种是表面的意思,是自然的道路,而另一种是深层意思,那就是人生的道路。

鲁迅老先生曾说过:“本来世界上是没有路的,真正的路是靠人走出来的。

”这是一句多么意味深长的话。

是啊!人生的道路充满荆棘与坎坷,种种的挫折会迎面而来,这时,就要看你是否能勇敢面对,战胜它。

志(错字)者才能为王。

而弱者就会庸碌一身。

选择一条正确的路,会影响你的`一身,选择了一条歪路,也会影响你的一身。

也许你在经历人生道路时,你会遇到地雷或炸弹,使你寸步难行,随时面临着死亡;你还会遇到鲜花和彩虹,是你觉得生活是一大乐趣,可你千万别忘了,不能骄傲。

要学会接受成功与失败。

一条正确的道路是由努力组成的,努力就等于自信+谦虚+勤奋。

父母们,为了自己的孩子,呕心力血,把自己赚来的汗水钱都头在了儿女的身上,只求他们能够好好学习,为祖国做贡献。

有时,看见自己的儿女不努力在qq上聊那些无关紧要的话时,就会真的很生气,和你说,你却还顶嘴,他们的生气是爱你,是关心你,为了你不走错一步路。

现在你应该明白了把,那你就拿出行动,证明给他们看,让他们知道你还是努力的,他们肯定感到欣慰的读《未选择的路》的读后感2《未选择的路》是一首哲理抒情诗,它表面平易实则蕴含深邃的哲理,看似倾诉个人经历实则表达人们的共同感受。

在这首诗里,弗罗斯特抓住林中岔道这一具体形象,用比喻的手法引起人们丰富生动的联想,烘托出人生岔路这样具有哲理寓意的象征。

诗人选择的是人们司空见惯的林中岔道,来阐发如何抉择人生道路这一生活哲理的。

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.

关键词:形式;意义; 诗1.Introduction1.1 The Information about the Poet, Robert FrostRobert Frost (1874-1963) was born in San Francisco, California, where he spent his childhood. In 1885, after his father died of tuberculosis, the Frosts moved to Massachusetts. There, Robert graduated from high school sharing top honors with a student he would later marry Elinor White. In his spare time, he wrote poetry. Disappointed with the scant attention his poems received, he moved with his wife to Great Britain to present his work to readers there. Publishers liked his work and printed his first book of poems, A Boy’s Will, in 1913, and a second poetry collection, North of Boston, in 1914. The latter book was published in the United States in 1915. Having established his reputation, Frost returned to the United States in 1915 and bought a small farm in Franconia, N.H. To supplement his income from the farm and his poetry, he taught at universities. Between 1916 and 1923, he published two more books of poetry—the second one, New Hampshire, winning the 1923 Pulitzer Prize. He went on to win three more Pulitzer Prizes and was invited to recite his poem “The Gift Outright” at President John F. Kennedy’s inauguration in January 1961. Frost died in Boston two years later. One may regard him as among the greatest poets of his generationRobert Lee Frost was a famous American poet. He is highly regarded for his realistic depictions of rural life and his command of American colloquial speech. He does different jobs in rural areas in New England in the early twentieth century, and writes poems by using his personal life experiences. His poems examine complex social and philosophical themes. A popular and often-quoted poet, Frost was honored frequently during his lifetime, receiving four Pulitzer Prizes for Poetry.1.2 The Background of this PoemRobert Frost was born in a teacher family, spent his childhood in the western United States. After graduating from high school, he graduated from Harvard University after two years of study. He worked as a weaver, teachers and farm. His life journey is not smooth at all. He has moved to different places and has had many different jobs. Meanwhile he began to write poetry. But his poe ms didn’t bring to the attention of the American.In 1912, Frost was 38 years old. This year he made an important choice: give up his teaching in a normal school, so he had to give up the flat and stable life. He chose the poetry. He said to himself: "though I’m poor, I would keep writing."The Rod Not Taken is one of the best known poems by Robert Frost. It was published in 1915, in the collection Mountain Interval. He put his thoughts and feelings into the poem. His poetic style is simple and meaningful. This poem is a fine example, its language is Concise fluent and simple, and it is easy to understand.2.Analysis of the Poem2.1 FormThe form of this poem is: four stanzas of five lines each; all lines are capitalized, flush left, and of approximately the same length. The rhyming scheme is so rhythmical and familiar to readers that it sounds like music when the poem is read. The poem has 4 stanzas. They can be divided into two layers. The 1-3 stanzas are the first layer. In a yellow wood, I’m facing two roads. After thinking deeply, I decided to choose the road less travel. In this layer, the poet describes the selection is not a hasty decision. He goes through a complex psychological process. On the road of life, he arrives at a point where he must decide which of two equally appealing (or equally intimidating) choices is the better one. He examines one choice as best he can, but the future prevents him from seeing where it leads. He selects the road that appears at first glance to be less worn and therefore less traveled. It suggests that he has an independent spirit and does not wish to follow the crowd. After a moment, he concludes that both roads are about equally worn. Leaves cover both roads equally. No one on this morning has yet taken either road, for the leaves lie undisturbed. The speaker remains committed to his decision to take the road he had previously selected, saying that he will save the other road for another day. He observes, however, that he probably will never pass this way again and thus will never have an opportunity to take the other road.The stanza4 is the second layer. It is the author's feelings many years later. He wants to telling others about the choice he made. While doing so, he will sigh either with relief that he made the right choice or with regret that he made the wrong choice.Whether right or wrong, the choice will have had a significant impact on his life. This tells us that in everyone’s life, he or she may face a lot of options, we must make decision, and we must consider a lot. In some degree nobody can judge which one is the right and which is the wrong one. The problem is that, once we make a choice, and take a road, we cannot come back. When we recall our choice after many years, we will know that everything began to change the moment we took the road. Every choice will have an impact on life; Choose a different road, the fate would be different.2.2 MeaningThe Road Not Taken centers on the concept of choice. The road that the speaker is walking on is splitting in two directions, and he has to decide which way to go. This road is not just in the woods, but also represents a decision in his life. Something in his life is changing, forcing him to make a choice. Yet he has a really hard time deciding – one moment, he thinks one way is better, the next, both paths are about the same. Whether or not he has a reason why the choice he makes is better, he has to make it. And that choice changes his life.Although the poet wrote the road he chose, but the focus is the road which he didn’t select. The subject also shows this. So choice is very important. But why the poet focus on the road he didn’t choose? In fact, not choose is just a kind of choice. In the life, people usually didn’t satisfy their choices. So it made people to miss the road they didn’t choose. So in this poem, the poet remained the road that not be chose in his mind. This is a true meaning of life.In the life, there are many roads that people can choose. But one person can only choose one way. People have to give up many other choice, because the life is to short to everyone. Choosing the road of life has a lot of contingency and randomness. Those roads people have not chosen made people more miss. The poets did not write the chosen path, while focusing on the road not taken. It drew the readers’ attention to think of life, to think deeply about the choice. Selection is inevitable. No matter which way you choose, you never know what it means unless you go over, and we don’t need to regret what we don’t choose.3.ConclusionIn a word, The Road Not Taken is a very beautiful and excellent poem. It is simple in form but profound in meaning. This poem depicts a man and the attitude when he facing the choice. But the poet didn’t write the thing he has to choose. Everyone can find his own experience like the poem said. It gives a lot of space to think. Everyone has such a complex psychological experience, Frost wrote it into a well-known masterpiece. The poem conveys the common feelings of human.Works CitedDrabble, Margaret: The Oxford Companion to English Literature.

The Road Not Taken 《未选择的路》罗伯特•弗罗斯特(Robert Frost)生于1874年,卒于1963年,可能要算是20世纪美国最受欢迎和爱戴的一位诗人了。

1912年,他弃农从文,从此成为了一名专业诗人。

他曾在1961年时受邀在约翰•F•肯尼迪总统的就职典礼上朗诵他的诗歌——《The Gift Outright》。

而本次我为大家推荐的《The Road Not Taken》则是他最著名的一首诗歌。

Two roads diverged in a yellow wood 黄色的树林里分出两条路And sorry I could not travel both 可惜我不能同时去涉足And be one traveler, long I stood 我在那路口久久伫立And looked down one as far as I could 我向着一条路极目望去To where it bent in the undergrown 直到它消失在丛林深处Then took the other, as just as fair 但我却选了另外一条路And having perhaps the better claim 它荒草萋萋,十分幽寂Because it was grassy and wanted wear; 显得更诱人、更美丽Though as for that the passing there 虽然在这两条小路上Had worn them really about the same 都很少留下旅人的足迹And both that morning equally lay 虽然那天清晨落叶满地In leaves no step had trodden black 两条路都未经脚印污染Oh, I kept the first for another day! 呵,留下一条路等改日再见!Yet knowing how way leads on to way, 但我知道路径延绵无尽头I doubted if I should even come back.恐怕我难以再回返I shall be telling this with a sigh 也许多少年后在某个地方Somewhere ages and ages hence: 我将轻声叹息把往事回顾Two roads diverged in a wood, and I--- 一片树林里分出两条路I took the one less traveled by, 而我选了人迹更少的一条And that has made all the difference 从此决定了我一生的道路评论1:"The Road Not Taken" is a poem by Robert Frost, published in 1916 in the collection Mountain Interval, it is the first poem in the volume and is printed in italics. The title is often mistakenly given as "The Road Less Traveled", from the penultimate line: "I took the one less traveled by".The poem has two recognized interpretations; one is a more literal interpretation, while the other is more ironic.Readers often see the poem literally, as an expression of individualism. Critics typically view the poem as ironic.[1] – "'The Road Not Taken,' perhaps the most famous example of Frost's own claims to conscious irony and 'the best example in all of American poetry of a wolf in sheep's clothing.'"[2] – and Frost himself warned "You have to be careful of that one; it's a tricky poem – very tricky."[3] Frost intended the poem as a gentle jab at his great friend and fellow poet Edward Thomas with whom he used to take walks through the forest (Thomas always complained at the end that they should have taken a different path) and seemed amused at this certain interpretation of the poem as inspirational.Literal interpretationAccording to the literal (and more common) interpretation, the poem is inspirational, a paean to individualism and non-conformism.The poem consists of four stanzas. In the first stanza, the speaker describes his position. He has been out walking in the woods and comes to two roads, and he stands looking as far down each one as he can see. He would like to try out both, but doubts he could do that, so therefore he continues to look down the roads for a long time trying to make his decision about which road to take.Ironic interpretationThe ironic interpretation, widely held by critics,[1][5] is that the poem is instead about regret and personal myth-making,rationalizing our decisions.In this interpretation, the final two lines:I took the one less traveled by,And that has made all the difference.are ironic : the choice made little or no difference at all, the speaker's protestations to the contrary. The speaker admits in the second and third stanzas that both paths may be equally worn and equally leaf-covered, and it is only in his future recollection that he will call one road "less traveled by".The sigh, widely interpreted as a sigh of regret, might also be interpreted ironically: in a 1925 letter to Cristine Yates of Dickson, Tennessee, asking about the sigh, Frost replied: "It was my rather private jest at the expense of those who might think I would yet live to be sorry for the way I had taken in life."Everyone is a traveler, choosing the roads to follow on the map of their continuous journey, life. There is never a straight path that leaves one with but a sole direction in which to head. Regardless of the original message that Robert Frost had intended to convey, his poem, "The Road Not Taken", has left its readers with many different interpretations. It is one's past, present and the attitude with which he looks upon his future that determines the shade of the light that he will see the poem in. In any case however, this poem clearly demonstrates Frost's belief that it is the road that one chooses that makes him the man who he is. "And sorry I could not travel both..." It is always difficult to make a decision because it is impossible not to wonder about the opportunity cost, what will be missed out on. There is a strong sense of regret before the choice is even made and it lies in the knowledge that in one lifetime, it is impossible to travel down every path. In an attempt to make a decision, the traveler "looks down one as far as I could". The road that will be chosen leads to the unknown, as does any choice in life. As much he may strain his eyes to see as far the road stretches, eventually it surpasses his vision and he can never see where it is going to lead. It is the way that he chooses here that sets him off on his journey and decides where he is going. "Then took the other, just as fair, and having perhaps the better claim." What made it have the better claim is that "it was grassland wanted wear." It was something that was obviously not for everyone because it seemed that the majority of people took the other path therefore he calls it "the road less traveled by". The fact that the traveler 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. "And both that morning equally lay in leaves no step had trodden black." The leaves had covered the ground and since the time they had fallen no one had yet to pass by on this road. Perhaps Frost does this because each time a person comes to the point where they have to make a choice, it is new to them, somewhere they have never been and they tend to feel as though no one else had ever been there either. "I kept the first for another day!" The desire to travel down both paths is expressed and is not unusual, but "knowing how way leads on to way", the speaker of this poem realizes that the decision is not just a temporary one and he "doubted if 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 who you are, there is no turning back and it cannot be undone. Once again at the end of the poem the regret hangs over the traveler like a heavy cloud about to burst. He 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. Yet he remains proud of his decision and he recognizes that it was this path that he chose that made him turn out the way and he did and live his life the way in which he lived. "I took the road less traveled by and that had made all the difference." 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. There are many equally valid meanings to this poem and Robert Frost may have intended this. He may have been trying to achieve a universal understanding. In other words, there is no judgment, no specificity, no moral. There is simply a narrator who makes a decision in his life that had changed the direction of his life from what it may have otherwise been. It allows all readers from all different experiences to relate to the poem.评论2:Robert Frost is one of the finest of rural New England’s 20th century pastoral poets. His poems are great combination ofwisdom, harmony and serenity. They are simple at first sight, but demand readers for deep reading to grasp further meaning beyond surface.The famous poem of Frost The Road Not Taken is my favorite. This poem consists of four stanzas of five lines. The rhyme scheme is ABAAB. the rhymes are strict and masculine, with notable exception of the last line. There are four stressed syllables each line, varying on iambic tetrameter base.The Road Not Taken tells about life choice. Man’s life is metaphorically related to a journey filled with twists and turns. O ne 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.A less than rigorous look at the poem may lead one to believe that Frost’s moral is embodied in those lines. The poem is take n as a call to independence, preaching originality and Emersonian self-reliance. The poem deconstructs its conclusion stanza by stanza.At the beginning of this poem, the poet shows the inability of human beings to foresee the future, especially the results of choices. At the split in the road, the speaker looks far down both the two paths to see what each of the paths will bring. However, his sight is limited; his eyes can only see the path until it bends into “the undergrowth”. Man is free to choose, b ut doesn’t know beforehand the results of hi s choice.Both roads diverge into a “yellow wood” and appear to be “about the same” in their purposes. The first path is a more common route. The other is less traveled, which “was grass and wanted wear”. The poet presents a conflict here—the decision between the common easy path and exceptional challenging path. The two different paths signify two different kinds of lives. Choosing the common easy path, people will feel at ease and live in safety, because the outcome is predictable. However, that kind of l ife may be less exciting and lack of novelty. While choosing the “less traveled” road represents the gamble of facing a more difficult path in lives. This forms contrast with familiar lives of most people. People hope to achiever a satisfactory and interesting life on this road. The wish is good, but reality is full of challenges and uncertainties. Nobody can be sure of the outcome. After vacillating between the two roads, the poet finally decides to take the road “less traveled by” and leads a different life from common people. This may indicate his choice to be a poet, other than other jobs. The poet makes up his mind to dedicate himself to poem writing, which is regarded as a less common career.Once the decision is made, there will be no way to return to the original choice to experience the other route. So the poet utters “Yet knowing how way leads on to way,I doubted if I should ever come back.” The made choice is irrevocable, so man must be careful and rational before making decisions. At the same time, he must be courageous enough to shoulder the result of his choice, whether it is good or not.Frost presents man’s limitation to explore life’s different possibilities. The poet “sighs” at the end of the poem. For at th e time of one’s choice, he must give up other choices and miss some other things. At the same time, he “sighs” with lamentation, pondering what he may have missed on the other path and that he doesn’t have opportunities to experience another kind of life.The Road Not Taken is interpreted universally as a representation of two similar choices. At the beginning, man may face two identical forks, which symbolize the nexus of free choice and fate. They contrast increasingly with each other as they diverge in their separate directions. Man is fr ee to choose, but it’s beyond his ability to foretell the consequences. Man can choose a common route which guarantees a safe and reliable life. He can also choose a less common one which is unknown, unique and stands out above other else’s. All in all, ma n must be responsible for his choice and has courage to shoulder the result. He can never go back to the past and experience other possibilities. It is impossible to predict the outcome of decisions, so it is essential for him to make wise decisions after considering, selecting and questioning which selection will provide him with fulfillment.The Road Not Taken is full of philosophical overtones. This poem should be read as a warning. Man should consider a lot before making choices and reflect over the cho ices he has made to discover “all the differences”.评论3:Robert Frost’s “The Road Not Taken” has been one of the most analyzed, quoted, anthologized poems in American poetry. A wide-spread interpretation claims that the speaker in the poem is promoting individualism and non-conformity.A Tricky PoemFrost claims that he wrote this poem about his friend Edward Thomas, with whom he had walked many times in the woods near London. Frost has said that while walking they would come to different paths and after choosing one, Thomas would always fret wondering what they might have missed by not taking the other path.About the poem, Frost asserted, "You have to be careful of that one; it's a tricky poem - very tricky." And he is, of course, correct. The poem has been and continues to be used as an inspirational poem, one that to the undiscerning eye seems to be encouraging self-reliance, not following where others have led.But a close reading of the poem proves otherwise. It does not moralize about choice; it simply says that choice is inevitable, but you never know what your choice will mean until you have lived it.First Stanza – Describes SituationThe poem consists of four stanzas. In the first stanza, the speaker describes his position. He has been out walking the woods and comes to two roads, and he stands looking as far down each one as he can see. He would like to try out both, but doubts he could to that, so therefore he continues to look down the roads for a long time trying to make his decision about which road to take.Second Stanza – Decides to Take Less-Traveled RoadThe speaker had looked down the first one “to where it bent in the undergrowth,” and in the second stanza, he 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. The second one that he took seems less traveled, but as he thinks about it, he realizes that they were “really about the same.” Not exactly that same but only “about the same.”Third Stanza – Continues Description of RoadsThe third stanza continues with the cogitation about the possible differences between the two roads. He had noticed that the leaves were both fresh fallen on them both and had not been walked on, but then again 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.Also on Suite101Frost's Snow and WoodsRobert Frost's "Stopping by Woods on a Snowy Evening" seems simple, but its nuanced phrase, "And miles to go before I sleep," offers much about which to speculate.Fourth Stanza – Two Tricky WordsThe fourth stanza holds the key to the trickiness of the poem:I shall be telling this with a sighSomewhere 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.Those who interpret this poem as suggesting non-conformity take the word “difference” to be a positive difference. But there is nothing in the poem that suggests that this difference signals a positive outcome. The speaker could not offer such information, because he has not lived the “difference” yet.The other word that leads readers astray is the word “sigh.” By taking “difference” to mean a positive diffe rence, they think that the sigh is one of nostalgic relief; however, a sigh can also mean regret. There is the “oh, dear” kind of sigh, but als o the “what a relief” kind of sigh. Which one is it?If it is the relief sigh, then the difference means the speaker is glad he took the road he did; if it is the regret sigh, then the difference would not be good, and the speaker would be sighing in regret. But the plain fact is that the poem does not identify the nature of that sigh. The speaker of the poem does not even know the nature of that sigh, because that sigh and his evaluation of the difference his choice will make are still in the future. It is a truism that any choice an indiviual make is going to make “all the difference” in how our future turns out.Ca reful Readers Won’t Be TrickedSo Frost was absolutely correct; his poem is tricky—very tricky. In this poem, it is important to be careful with the time frame. When the speaker says he will be reporting sometime in the future how his road choice turned out, he clearly states that he cannot assign meaning to “sigh” and “difference” yet, because he cannot know how his choice will affect his future, until aft erhe has lived it.评论4:1.IntroductionAs is well known to people, Robert Frost is one of the most famous national poets of America. Though contemporary with modernists like T.S. Eliot and Ezra Pound, Robert Frost is often regarded as a traditional poet of nature. He rejected the revolutionary poetic principles of his contemporary. On the contrary, he ch ose “the old- fashioned way to be new and urged poets to use the idioms of spoken English and, when possible, to rely on commonplace and even rustic imagery. And he saw nature as a storehouse of analogy and symbol. However, unlike other poets of nature, he depicted nature as something in constant conflicts with human beings and bring a deep sense of uncertainty and even tragedy to them. Simple as they seem, his poems are often profound in meaning between the lines. Most of his poems are characterized with an unusual sense of tragedy and reflect weakness of human beings in the face of vast, impersonal force.Additionally, the poem reflects Frost’s own personal tragedy and his miserable, sorrowful inner feelings exactly. When it comes to this, his personal life experience has to be taken into consideration. Famous and popular as he became, but he suffer a lot during all his life. He lost his father as a young boy, and he was bereaved of his beloved wife in his middle age. What is worse, all of his children ended up dying young or suffering from mental disease. For him, life seemed to keep playing tricks on him and made his life miserable. As a result, many poems composed by him, not only this one, are featured with an exotic sense of tragic beauty.2. AnalysisIn this poem, the speaker, a traveler in the wood faced with the choice of two roads. The roads bear two connotations: the material roads and the roads of life. Now, let me give some specific analysis.2.1 See over one roadIn part o ne, the speaker faced with two roads in the autumnal wood and feel puzzled over which one to choose. “Two roads diverged in a yellow wood”, He stood there for a long time and mused on one of them, which was taken by many people. Unfortunately, he was unable to find out which place the,road would take him to, for it is far beyond his ability to know where the road would lead. However, he must choose to take.2.2. The other oneIn part two, he stepped on the other road, “Then took the other, as just as fair”, It was grassy and not taken. His choice would affect every other subsequent choice, and there was no turning back. From his choice for the less trodden road, it could be concluded that he did not like to follow the steps of other people, he wanted his own life choired by himself.2.3 HelplessIn part three, he decided to choose the less traveled one, but he was aware that he could never have a chance to return to the first road. “I doubted if I should never come back” showed he is helpless.2.4 Chose the less traveled roadIn part four, “I shall be telling this with a sign”, he articulated why he chose the less traveled road, for he expected his life to be unusual and different. But there was no way to foretell the consequences of his choice.All in all, for the speaker, the road of life was accident and mystical, and his very choice was crucial in determining the consequences of his life. The ordinary people follow other’s choice, while the exceptional ones choose their unique roads of life.3. Conclusion3.1 Everyone is a travelerEveryone is a traveler, choosing the roads to follow on the map of their continuous journey. There is never a straight path but a sole direction in which to head. It is one's past, present and the attitude with which he looks upon his future that determines the shade of the light.In any case however, this poem clearly explained Frost's belief that it is the road that one chooses that makes him the man who he is. It is always difficult to make a decision because it is impossible not to wonder about the opportunity cost, what willbe missed out on. It is impossible to travel down every path. The road that will be chosen leads to the unknown, as does any choice in life. As much he may strain his eyes to see as far the road stretches, eventually it surpasses his vision and he can never see where it is going to lead.It is the way that he chooses here that sets him off on his journey and decides where he is going. It was something that was obviously not for everyone because it seemed that the majority of people took the other path. There is simply a narrator who makes a decision in his life that had changed the direction of his life from what it may have otherwise been. It allows all readers from all different experiences to relate to the poem.3.2 Human beings are so weakIn a word, the poem The Road Not Taken is a very beautiful and excellent poem. It is set in a rural natural environment where always inspire the speaker to think of life. It is based on a metaphor in which the journey through life is compared to a journey on a road. And the speaker of the poem has to choose one path instead of another. Even though the two paths look equally attractive, the speaker knows that his choice at this moment may have a significant influence on his future. He does make a decision, hoping that he may be able to visit this place again, yet realizing that such an opportunity is impossible. He imagines himself in the future telling the story of his life, and claiming that his decision to take the road less traveled by, the road few other people have taken, has made all the difference.This thesis intends to explore Frost’s own view of life. He told us that human beings are so weak when compared with nature and the destiny. Though human beings have made great progress in the past several centuries, there will forever exist something that is far beyond their control. For human, it is unable to do anything useful when he is in conflict with the impersonal force. And it’s also unable to control his own destiny; on the contrary, his fate and destiny are in the charge of something mysterious beyond him. In this sense, life is a tragedy to human. So it could be said that Frost conveyed his sense of tragedy common to human through this simple but beautiful poem. It is simple in form but profound in meaning.评论5:SummaryThe speaker stands in the woods, considering a fork in the road. Both ways are equally worn and equally overlaid withun-trodden leaves. The speaker chooses one, telling himself that he will take the other another day. Yet he knows it is unlikely that he will have the opportunity to do so. And he admits that someday in the future he will recreate the scene with a slight twist: He will claim that he took the less-traveled road.From“The Road Not Taken” consists of four stanzas of five lines. Th e rhyme scheme is ABAAB; the rhymes are strict and masculine, with the notable exception of the last line (we do not usually stress the -ence of difference). There are four stressed syllables per line, varying on an iambic tetrameter base.CommentaryThis has got to be among the best-known, most-often-misunderstood poems on the planet. Several generations of careless readers have turned it into a piece of Hallmark happy-graduation-son, seize-the-future puffery. Cursed with a perfect marriage of form and co ntent, arresting phrase wrought from simple words, and resonant metaphor, it seems as if “The Road Not Taken” gets memorized without really being read. For this it has died the cliché’s un-death of trivial immortality.But you yourself can resurrect it from zombie-hood by reading it—not with imagination, even, but simply with accuracy. Of the two roads the speaker says “the passing there / Had worn them really about the same.” In fact, both roads “that morning lay / In leaves no step had trodden black.” Me aning: Neither of the roads is less traveled by. These are the facts; we cannot justifiably ignore the reverberations they send through the easy aphorisms of the last two stanzas.One of the attractions of the poem is its archetypal dilemma, one that we instantly recognize because each of us encounters itinnumerable times, both literally and figuratively. Paths in the woods and forks in roads are ancient and deep-seated metaphors for the lifeline, its crises and decisions. Identical forks, in particular, symbolize for us the nexus of free will and fate: We are free to choose, but we do not really know beforehand what we are choosing between. Our route is, thus, determined by an accretion of choice and chance, and it is impossible to separate the two.This poem does not advise. It does not say, “When you come to a fork in the road, study the footprints and take the road less traveled by” (or even, as Yogi Berra enigmatically quipped, “When you come to a fork in the road, take it”). Frost’s focus is more complicated. First, there is no less-traveled road in this poem; it isn’t even an option. Next, the poem seems more concerned with the question of how the concrete present (yellow woods, grassy roads covered in fallen leaves) will look from a future vantage point.The ironic tone is inescapable: “I shall be telling this with a sigh / Somewhere ages and ages hence.” The speaker anticipate s his own future insincerity—his need, later on in life, to rearrange the facts and inject a dose of Lone Ranger into the account. He knows that he will be inaccurate, at best, or hypocritical, at worst, when he holds his life up as an example. In fact, he predicts that his future self will betray this moment of decision as if the betrayal were inevitable. This realization is ironic and poignantly pathetic. But the “sigh” is critical. The speaker will not, in his old age, merely gather the youth about him and say, “Do what I did, kiddies. I stuck to my guns, took the road less traveled by, and that has made all the difference.” Rather, he may say this, but he will sigh first; for he won’t believe it himself. Somewhere in the back of his mind will remain the imag e of yellow woods and two equally leafy paths.Ironic as it is, this is also a poem infused with the anticipation o f remorse. Its title is not “The Road Less Traveled” but “The Road Not Taken.” Even as he makes a choice (a choice he is forced to make if does not want to stand forever in the woods, one for which he has no real guide or definitive basis for decision-making), the speaker knows that he will second-guess himself somewhere down the line—or at the very least he will wonder at what is irrevocably lost: the impossible, unknowable Other Path. But the nature of the decision is such that there is no Right Path—just the chosen path and the other path. What are sighed for ages and ages hence are not so much the wrong decisions as the moments of decision themselves—moments that, one atop the other, mark the passing of a life. This is the more primal strain of remorse.Thus, to add a further level of irony, the theme of the poem may, after all, be “seize the day.” But a more nuanced carpe die m, if you please.。

这位美国著名的现代主义诗人以其深刻的洞察力和富有哲理的作品而闻名。

这本诗集中的每一首诗都有着独特的风格和主题,给人们带来了思考和启发。

在阅读完《未选择的路》之后,我深受触动,产生了一些思考和感悟。

《未选择的路》是以自省和人生选择为主题的一本诗集。

它引导读者思考人生中的选择问题,强调选择如何塑造一个人的命运。

诗集中最为著名的一首诗是《黄色木屋》(The Road Not Taken),这是一首关于选择和决策的诗歌。

它描述了一个人游走在林中两条相似但有着不同命运的小路之间,他最终选择了那条少有人走的小路。

这首诗激发了读者们对选择的思考,探索了做出选择后所带来的不同结果。

在诗集中,弗罗斯特表达了他对人生和选择的独到见解。

他认为人们在生活中常常面临选择困难,因为每一个选择都会带来不同的结果和影响。

他写道:“我站在两条小路之间。

“路”再也不能候补一个重返。

”这句话强调了选择的不可逆性,当我们做出了一次选择,就彻底失去了另一种可能性。

这使我想起了自己在生活中所做的一些选择,我也曾面临着艰难的决策。

读完《未选择的路》后,我开始反思自己的选择是否正确,如果我选择了另一条道路,结果会是什么样子。

然而,我逐渐意识到,后悔和猜测只会带来负面情绪,我们需要接受并珍惜自己所做的选择,无论结果如何。

同时,弗罗斯特在诗集中也强调了勇于决策的重要性。

”这句诗道出了环境对我们选择的限制。

我们所处的环境和周围的影响会直接或间接地影响我们的决策。

但诗集中也强调了每个人都有权利自己选择,为自己的决策负责。

未选择的路读后感

Gain calmness, lose calmness, go with the flow, and fight for the inevitability.悉心整理助您一臂(页眉可删)未选择的路读后感未选择的路读后感1未选择的路是我们下册语文书上的一课。

这首诗从表面上来看只写了林子里的两条路,但是这两条路实际上指的是人生的道路,人生的路只有一条,选择了就要努力走下去,你选择了这条路,也许你觉得这条路布满了荆棘,但是你不能改变了,如果你退缩了,换了另一条路,也许另一条路上满是万丈深渊。

你已经知道了这条路上布满荆棘,那你就要慢慢学会绕开它,砍断他。

人生的选择很无奈,但是你一旦选择了,你就不要轻易的离开,一条路上也许布满荆棘,另一条路上可能是万丈深渊,你需要选择适合你的,如果你有砍断荆棘的能力,你就不要去冒险过万丈深渊,因为你不了解它,如果你在满是万丈深渊的险路上不幸失足,可能永远不能重新选择了。

选对人生的路很重要,更重要的是选择适合自己的路,人生的选择是无奈而又要慎重的,一定要做出大胆细心的决定。

未选择的路读后感2今天,我读了著名诗人弗罗斯特的一首哲理诗《未选择的路》。

作者通过写自然界的路来叙述人生的路有千万条,选择了就再也不能回头的一个哲理。

在通往未来的人生岔口,我们坚定选择了这条小路。

路的那边是风和日丽,曲径通幽?还是急风残月,河边断桥?我们无从知晓。

当我们来到这个世界时,我们便带着美好的梦想,带着远征的行装,开始了我们人生的小路。

临终的风景让我们赏心悦目,信心剧增,瞧,多好的风景!走过了阳光,走过了树林,天地瞬时电闪雷鸣。

没了伸延的小路,也没有遮雨的布伞,茫茫的荒野只是泥泞与黑暗。

于是,我们开始迷惘忧虑,懊丧不已,后悔当初没有走上岔口那边的小路,那片风景也许是花红月圆,阳光灿烂。

然而昨日的太阳已落,失去的风景已过,生命的.旅途没有回返的路程。

我们只能依靠着信念走出着泥泞的雨地。

也许我们会错过一段季节,也许我们会迷失一段方向,错过了太阳,我们还会迷失月亮吗?也许还有荒漠沼泽,也许还有雨雪风霜,对于坚强的信念,艰辛也是一道绚丽的风光。

雪儿飘读美国著名诗人罗伯特·弗罗斯特的诗歌《TheRoadNotTaken》

雪儿飘读美国著名诗人罗伯特·弗罗斯特的诗歌《TheRoadNotTaken》展开全文观罗伯特·弗罗斯特《The Road Not Taken》后感《the road not taken》(未选择的路)是美国著名诗人罗伯特·弗罗斯特的著名诗篇。

这首深邃的哲理诗展现了现实生话中人们处在十字路口时难以抉择的心情。

在诗中,诗人选择了一条人迹稀少、布满荆棘的道路,正如诗人在现实生话中选择了不会带来丰富物质的写诗生话。

诗人在作出抉择后,同时又遗憾“鱼和熊掌不可兼得”,只能选择一条路,并坚定地走下去,只有在多年以后的回忆中轻叹遗憾。

这首诗朴实无华而清新隽永、寓意深刻。

诗歌分为四节,每节的第一、三、四行,第二、五行分别押韵,自如的节奏中透着坚定又渗出丝丝遗憾。

整首诗韵律优美,读起来传递着优雅的音乐感。

看他的作品感同身受的体会着,想到自己在十八岁的时候写的《选择与放弃》正如先生所说,同时又遗憾“鱼和熊掌不可兼得”,只能选择一条路,并坚定地走下去,只有在多年以后的回忆中轻叹遗憾。

虽然我们未曾相识,却因一篇诗,联系在一起。

前段时间有一个香港朋友问我,为什么十八岁的你会写出与你年龄段不符的诗?年轻的女孩,不年轻的诗。

你与同龄的人的思想境界显然是不一样的。

从你的懂事和你的诗里行间可以看得出来。

而你写《选择与放弃》的诗,那肯定是你人生里遇到的选择,或深重或痛的领悟。

所谓人生里痛的哲学。

九年后有幸遇见美国著名诗人罗伯特·弗罗斯特的著名诗篇《the road not taken》(未选择的路),顿然想起了九年前写的诗《选择与放弃》,是的,每个人都不能贪心的得鱼又得熊掌。

《the road not taken》(未选择的路)的诗创作灵感源于美国著名诗人罗伯特·弗罗斯特的英国好友诗人爱德华·托马斯在弗罗斯特访英期间,托马斯经常与他在乡间散步,托马斯总想要选择一条可以向美国朋友展示某种奇特风景的路。

关键词:形式;意义; 诗1.Introduction1.1 The Information about the Poet, Robert FrostRobert Frost (1874-1963) was born in San Francisco, California, where he spent his childhood. In 1885, after his father died of tuberculosis, the Frosts moved to Massachusetts. There, Robert graduated from high school sharing top honors with a student he would later marry Elinor White. In his spare time, he wrote poetry. Disappointed with the scant attention his poems received, he moved with his wife to Great Britain to present his work to readers there. Publishers liked his work and printed his first book of poems, A Boy’s Will, in 1913, and a second poetry collection, North of Boston, in 1914. The latter book was published in the United States in 1915. Having established his reputation, Frost returned to the United States in 1915 and bought a small farm in Franconia, N.H. To supplement his income from the farm and his poetry, he taught at universities. Between 1916 and 1923, he published two more books of poetry—the second one, New Hampshire, winning the 1923 Pulitzer Prize. He went on to win three more Pulitzer Prizes and was invited to recite his poem “The Gift Outright” at President John F. Kennedy’s inauguration in January 1961. Frost died in Boston two years later. One may regard him as among the greatest poets of his generationRobert Lee Frost was a famous American poet. He is highly regarded for his realistic depictions of rural life and his command of American colloquial speech. He does different jobs in rural areas in New England in the early twentieth century, and writes poems by using his personal life experiences. His poems examine complex social and philosophical themes. A popular and often-quoted poet, Frost was honored frequently during his lifetime, receiving four Pulitzer Prizes for Poetry.1.2 The Background of this PoemRobert Frost was born in a teacher family, spent his childhood in the western United States. After graduating from high school, he graduated from Harvard University after two years of study. He worked as a weaver, teachers and farm. His life journey is not smooth at all. He has moved to different places and has had many different jobs. Meanwhile he began to write poetry. But his poe ms didn’t bring to the attention of the American.In 1912, Frost was 38 years old. This year he made an important choice: give up his teaching in a normal school, so he had to give up the flat and stable life. He chose the poetry. He said to himself: "though I’m poor, I would keep writing."The Rod Not Taken is one of the best known poems by Robert Frost. It was published in 1915, in the collection Mountain Interval. He put his thoughts and feelings into the poem. His poetic style is simple and meaningful. This poem is a fine example, its language is Concise fluent and simple, and it is easy to understand.2.Analysis of the Poem2.1 FormThe form of this poem is: four stanzas of five lines each; all lines are capitalized, flush left, and of approximately the same length. The rhyming scheme is so rhythmical and familiar to readers that it sounds like music when the poem is read. The poem has 4 stanzas. They can be divided into two layers. The 1-3 stanzas are the first layer. In a yellow wood, I’m facing two roads. After thinking deeply, I decided to choose the road less travel. In this layer, the poet describes the selection is not a hasty decision. He goes through a complex psychological process. On the road of life, he arrives at a point where he must decide which of two equally appealing (or equally intimidating) choices is the better one. He examines one choice as best he can, but the future prevents him from seeing where it leads. He selects the road that appears at first glance to be less worn and therefore less traveled. It suggests that he has an independent spirit and does not wish to follow the crowd. After a moment, he concludes that both roads are about equally worn. Leaves cover both roads equally. No one on this morning has yet taken either road, for the leaves lie undisturbed. The speaker remains committed to his decision to take the road he had previously selected, saying that he will save the other road for another day. He observes, however, that he probably will never pass this way again and thus will never have an opportunity to take the other road.The stanza4 is the second layer. It is the author's feelings many years later. He wants to telling others about the choice he made. While doing so, he will sigh either with relief that he made the right choice or with regret that he made the wrong choice.Whether right or wrong, the choice will have had a significant impact on his life. This tells us that in everyone’s life, he or she may face a lot of options, we must make decision, and we must consider a lot. In some degree nobody can judge which one is the right and which is the wrong one. The problem is that, once we make a choice, and take a road, we cannot come back. When we recall our choice after many years, we will know that everything began to change the moment we took the road. Every choice will have an impact on life; Choose a different road, the fate would be different.2.2 MeaningThe Road Not Taken centers on the concept of choice. The road that the speaker is walking on is splitting in two directions, and he has to decide which way to go. This road is not just in the woods, but also represents a decision in his life. Something in his life is changing, forcing him to make a choice. Yet he has a really hard time deciding – one moment, he thinks one way is better, the next, both paths are about the same. Whether or not he has a reason why the choice he makes is better, he has to make it. And that choice changes his life.Although the poet wrote the road he chose, but the focus is the road which he didn’t select. The subject also shows this. So choice is very important. But why the poet focus on the road he didn’t choose? In fact, not choose is just a kind of choice. In the life, people usually didn’t satisfy their choices. So it made people to miss the road they didn’t choose. So in this poem, the poet remained the road that not be chose in his mind. This is a true meaning of life.In the life, there are many roads that people can choose. But one person can only choose one way. People have to give up many other choice, because the life is to short to everyone. Choosing the road of life has a lot of contingency and randomness. Those roads people have not chosen made people more miss. The poets did not write the chosen path, while focusing on the road not taken. It drew the readers’ attention to think of life, to think deeply about the choice. Selection is inevitable. No matter which way you choose, you never know what it means unless you go over, and we don’t need to regret what we don’t choose.3.ConclusionIn a word, The Road Not Taken is a very beautiful and excellent poem. It is simple in form but profound in meaning. This poem depicts a man and the attitude when he facing the choice. But the poet didn’t write the thing he has to choose. Everyone can find his own experience like the poem said. It gives a lot of space to think. Everyone has such a complex psychological experience, Frost wrote it into a well-known masterpiece. The poem conveys the common feelings of human.Works CitedDrabble, Margaret: The Oxford Companion to English Literature.

The road not taken
The road not taken is a famous poem admired worldwide. After reading this short and simple poem, I’m deeply touched by its profound meanings. Apparently, the poet used ‘road’ as a metaphor of the choices that are of vital importance to our lives. Two roads lead to diverged directions, once you make up your mind; you are destined to go on until the end of your days.
I do appreciate the poet’s attitude towards life. When he was young, he might neither know much about human joys and sorrows nor have ideas of how tough life could be. But with a heart to pursue freedom, and an ambition to be somebody someday, he decided to choose the road less traveled by. I believe that almost every young people will be brave enough to make such decisions. And if I was the poet I would do the same decision .Because I think we should follow our heart to do things which we really like to do .but not just do something that your parents expect .Once you choose the road not taken. You have to go on like the poet until the end of you days and never feel regret about it
As far as I am concern .I find that all have experienced the inevitable process of choosing their own ways of life, and more likely, they choose
‘the road less taken’. The obstacles on the road do enrich life experiences and make people more mature. Anyway, the poet’s idea in this poem is widely accepted. Be brave to choose the road you prefer and march on. You may feel pity for the other road you give up, but you don’t have to regret for the rest of your life. Because you follow your inner voice and live your life to the fullest. That is what counts.。
