1. The Road Not Taken

TWO roads diverged in a yellow wood,
And sorry I could not travel both
And be one traveler, long I stood
And looked down one as far as I could
To where it bent in the undergrowth; 5

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, 10

And both that morning equally lay
In 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 ever come back. 15

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 traveled by,
And that has made all the difference. 20

A. 1 small penne carbonara and a large garden salad. Would you like anything else?
B. No. I think that's it for now.
A. OK. I'll be right back with some bread.

A．Thank you for gathering here again today.
B．Excuse me. I have a quick question.
A. Sure. Let’s start today’s seminar off by taking questions from the audience.

A. Is everybody here?
B．Yes. Let's start off with a beer.
A．Sounds good.

Which Graffiti is it?
:)
1.
The important object in this piece is the red, heart-shaped balloon that is flying away from the little girl. The little girl, in a play dress, is watching her balloon get carried away by the wind with one arm outstretched. Her dream, the heart balloon, is flying away. To the right of the drawing there is a simple saying : THERE IS ALWAYS HOPE in capital letters.
:)

2. There are two characters playing ball.
They are having fun although a sign reads "no ball games".
It probably means that fun is no allowed. Sometimes, it's better to ignore what is forbidden.
:)
3. A demonstrator, wearing a headscarf on his mouth is throwing flowers instead of stones.
he must be angry or happy.
It shows that you can demonstrate for love.
:)
4. In this one, an African woman is putting up a zebra's stripes on a washing line.
It's really funny and original.
:)
5. A girl standing on a stool is scared of a frightening rat.
:)
Let's have some fun and ride a horse! Looks like the boy is enjoying himself.
The bricks that are showing on the building indicate that he must be living in a rundown neighborhood or simply that the hole in the wall looked like a cow.
:)
6.A little girl is blowing away bubbles and having fun.
:)
A policeman was unlucky and was run over by a bulldozer. What a shock!

It probably means that fun is not allowed, or maybe being noisy is not allowed. Sometimes, it's better to ignore what is forbidden.
