Answer 1

robert frosts: stopping by the woods on a snowy evening. particuarly the last 4 lines.

Whose woods these are I think I know.

His house is in the village though;

He will not see me stopping here

To watch his woods fill up with snow.

My little horse must think it q***r

To stop without a farmhouse near

Between the woods and frozen lake

The darkest evening of the year.

He gives his harness bells a shake

To ask if there is some mistake.

The only other sound's the sweep

Of easy wind and downy flake.

The woods are lovely, dark and deep.

But I have promises to keep,

And miles to go before I sleep,

And miles to go before I sleep.

it could symbolise Amir going back to his home country after seeing it changed from what he remembers from his childhood, and the search for Hassan's son (sorry cant remember the boys name, been a while since i read it). i mentioned the last four lines, as he does have promises to keep (i.e. that old guy, saying he must find amirs nephew) and amirs struggle to get the child into America, doing anything he can to get the boy to america to have a better life. meaning that he will not give up trying to get the boy home with him. 'the woods are lovely dark and deep' could suggest that he wants to explore afgahnistan morem the once beautiful country of his childhood, but he has promises to keep (i.e finding the boy)

hope that helps!!  i take it this is part of english homework? i love this sort of question.
