1) There are two roads extending before a traveller in a wood. One is easy, for it is made broad and straight with signposts on both sides. It leads you to your destination without much effort. On the contrary, the other is obviously less travelled: it is narrow and uneven, bending in the undergrowth.  Following it means risky and even dangerous. Which road to take? He has to make a decision. I would take the less travelled one if I were the traveller.(通过图画的描写,引出作者的观点)

2) Most people tend to choose the easy road because they want a sure way to success, a way which directly leads them to academic security and career security. They won't take a step in another direction until they are ensured that the step is safe. To them, personal growth becomes a product that can be rheasured. So they celebrate the occasion when entering a prestigious university, or getting a promotion.(主题句开头，说明为什么大多数人挑选容易走的路)

3) But I find it is more meaningful to see personal growth as a process. As a process, it means you will encounter unexpected turns and dangers as there are no specific signposts or landmarks along the way. As a process, it means the journey will never really end: there are always new ways to experiences, new challenges to accept and the new effort to make.(主题句表明自己截然不同的观点)

4) Trying a new way of being, however, is essential to the meaning of our life. There is the possibility that you may fail. But to think the pleasure you may experience in the process of exploring the unknown, undergoing unfamiliar experience and testing the ability of yourself. Nothing is more rewarding than being able to conquer challenges and fulfil oneself fully.(选择没有人走过的道路所带来的深刻意义)

5) It understandable that most people follow a straight and safe route in life, for they have the feeling of insecurity and self-doubt. But if you dare to poke down an unmarked side road, it may leads to life's riches surprises.(回到第一段,前后呼应)

闪光点:

1.比较两种生活道路。倾向性观点很清楚,不仅开头和结尾的观点鲜明,在结构安排上用两个段落(第三、四段)阐明作者的观点。

2.句型丰富，如同位语(第二段的a way which ...),排比旬(第三段的as a process, .. as a process)，反说句:Nothing is more rewarding than being able to conquer challenges and fulfil oneself fully.

3、用词注意变化。如表示“路”一road, way, route;表示“危险"-risky, dangerous, unknown, insecurity, unexpected turns;表示“困难"-difficulty, challenges
