The road not taken class 9th





1 Write the Central Idea of the poem 'The Road Not Taken'

 Ans The message of the poem is to make people aware of their analytical skills. The poet wishes to say that choices should be made carefully and thoughtfully. One should behave responsibly because life does not offer multiple chances every now and then. 



2 Why did the poet take the other road?


Ans The poet had to choose one of the two roads. He left the one which was a popular choice. He decided to take the ‘other’ road which was less frequented and travelled by the people. The ‘other’ road had a better claim as it was grassy. It invited the people to walk on it 



3 Describe the conditions of both the roads that lay open before the poet on that morning.

 Ans In the yellow autumnal wood, two roads diverged into two directions. Both of them were covered with the fallen leaves. In the morning, both of them were still untouched. The steps of travellers have not blackened them. One was frequently used by the travellers. The other one was not a popular choice. It seemed to invite people to walk on it. 


4 What does the poet mean when he says I kept the first for another day?


Ans He kept the 1st road for some other day as he wanted to travel the road that was not very frequently used, 


5 What was the main problem or dilemma of the poet in the poem 'The Road not Taken'?

Ans The poet was standing before the two roads. He had to decide which one would lead him to success. It was not easy for him to decide. So he stood there and introspected. Out the two options, he had to choose the one. Of course, it was not an easy choice 


6 What was the poet's opinion about both the roads?




Ans The poet opined that both the roads were same. They were equally travelled and there was no difference between them. So he got confused. It was difficult to decide which road would be more convenient and comfortable. He wanted to choose the one that would take him to his intended destination
