Question

Which two themes are evident in Robert Frost’s poem “The Road not Taken”?

Taking a well-trodden route is the key to success.



Conforming to tradition is important.



The goals of the individual are meaningful.



One should be open to new experiences.

Answer 1

At the end of the poem, we hear:

I took the one less traveled by,
And that has made all the difference.

- So we can see that the last two options are true: individual goals and new experiences are valuable (great poem btw)

Answer 2

The two themes are 1) The goals of an individual are meaningful and 2) One should be open to new experiences.

Step-by-step explanation:

The author tries to express through this poem that everybody has personal goals which are meaningful for oneself regardless what other people think about them. Pursuing personal goals motivates individuals.

Apart from that, one should be open to new experiences. This is an important part of human development. If we do not try new things, we will always live in our comfort zone.
