I Shall Not Pass This Way Again

(Anonymous)
Through this toilsome world, alas!
Once and only once I pass,
If a kindness I may show,
If a good deed I may do
To a suffering fellow man,
Let me do it while I can.
No delay, for it is plain
I shall not pass this way again.

Source: “Poem: I Shall Not Pass This Way Again by Anonymous,” Poetry Nook, accessed July 9, 2020, https://www.poetrynook.com/poem/i-shall-not-pass-way-again.

Let students answer the following question to check their understanding (way of discussing the poem).

Processing questions:
1. What is the poem all about?

(The poem is about doing good while we can because we only live once.)

2. What is the speaker trying to tell us?

3
 (Be kind. Be helpful.)

3. How did the speaker describe the world? Why do you think he described it that way?

(Toilsome world. Life in this world can be tiring because many people are suffering.)

4. What does he intend to do? Why?

(Show kindness and do good while still alive. We only live once.)

5. Would you do the same?

(Yes, God gave us one life. And in this life, I’d like to glorify God by doing the right thing.)

This expression means life is given to all human beings as one time
opportunity; so, we should make best use of this opportunity by doing all
the good and righteous work we can. We should love our fellow brothers
and sisters; we should be kind and considerate to others; we should help
the needy; we should reduce sorrow of as many people as we can; most
important, we should love and thank God, who has given us this precious
life because we get it only one time in eternity.

The coronavirus disease (COVID-19) pandemic is of a scale most people alive today have never seen.
Lockdowns and curfews to contain the spread of the virus impacted the way children learn, the way their families
earn a living, and how safe they feel in their homes and communities. Despite the ongoing threat, countries around
the world are starting to lift restrictions. As we question whether we will ever go back to what we once knew to be
“normal”, its worth taken a step back to see how we can build on what we have learned to build back a better world
for children.

A figure of speech is a rhetorical device that achieves a special effect by using words in a distinctive way. Though there are hundreds of figures of speech, here we'll focus on 20
top examples.
9
You'll probably remember many of these terms from your English classes. Figurative language is often associated with literature and with poetry in particular. Whether we're
conscious of it or not, we use figures of speech every day in our own writing and conversations.

For example, common expressions such as "falling in love," "racking our brains," and "climbing the ladder of success" are all metaphors—the most pervasive figure of all. Likewise,
we rely on similes when making explicit comparisons ("light as a feather") and hyperbole to emphasize a point ("I'm starving!").

Did You Know?

Figures of speech are also known as figures of rhetoric, figures of style, rhetorical figures, figurative language, and schemes.
Top 20 Figures of Speech
Using original figures of speech in our writing is a way to convey meanings in fresh, unexpected ways. Figures can help our readers understand and stay interested in what we
have to say.

1. Alliteration: The repetition of an initial consonant sound. Example: She sells seashells by the seashore.

2. Anaphora: The repetition of the same word or phrase at the beginning of successive clauses or verses. Example: Unfortunately, I was in the wrong place at the wrong time on
the wrong day.

3. Antithesis: The juxtaposition of contrasting ideas in balanced phrases. Example: As Abraham Lincoln said, "Folks who have no vices have very few virtues."

4. Apostrophe: Directly addressing a nonexistent person or an inanimate object as though it were a living being. Example: "Oh, you stupid car, you never work when I need you
to," Bert sighed.

5. Assonance: Identity or similarity in sound between internal vowels in neighboring words. Example: How now, brown cow?

6. Chiasmus: A verbal pattern in which the second half of an expression is balanced against the first but with the parts reversed. Example: The famous chef said people should live
to eat, not eat to live.

7. Euphemism: The substitution of an inoffensive term for one considered offensively explicit. Example: "We're teaching our toddler how to go potty," Bob said.

8. Hyperbole: An extravagant statement; the use of exaggerated terms for the purpose of emphasis or heightened effect. Example: I have a ton of things to do when I get home.

9. Irony: The use of words to convey the opposite of their literal meaning. Also, a statement or situation where the meaning is contradicted by the appearance or presentation of
the idea. Example: "Oh, I love spending big bucks," said my dad, a notorious penny pincher.

10. Litotes: A figure of speech consisting of an understatement in which an affirmative is expressed by negating its opposite. Example: A million dollars is no small chunk of
change.

11. Metaphor: An implied comparison between two dissimilar things that have something in common. Example: "All the world's a stage."
10
12. Metonymy: A figure of speech in a word or phrase is substituted for another with which it's closely associated; also, the rhetorical strategy of describing something indirectly
by referring to things around it. Example: "That stuffed suit with the briefcase is a poor excuse for a salesman," the manager said angrily.

13. Onomatopoeia: The use of words that imitate the sounds associated with the objects or actions they refer to. Example: The clap of thunder went bang and scared my poor
dog.

14. Oxymoron: A figure of speech in which incongruous or contradictory terms appear side by side. Example: "He popped the jumbo shrimp in his mouth."

15. Paradox: A statement that appears to contradict itself. Example: "This is the beginning of the end," said Eeyore, always the pessimist.

16. Personification: A figure of speech in which an inanimate object or abstraction is endowed with human qualities or abilities. Example: That kitchen knife will take a bite out of
your hand if you don't handle it safely.

17. Pun: A play on words, sometimes on different senses of the same word and sometimes on the similar sense or sound of different words. Example: Jessie looked up from her
breakfast and said, "A boiled egg every morning is hard to beat."

18. Simile: A stated comparison (usually formed with "like" or "as") between two fundamentally dissimilar things that have certain qualities in common. Example: Roberto was
white as a sheet after he walked out of the horror movie.

19. Synecdoche: A figure of speech in which a part is used to represent the whole. Example: Tina is learning her ABC's in preschool.

20. Understatement: A figure of speech in which a writer or speaker deliberately makes a situation seem less important or serious than it is. Example: "You could say Babe Ruth
was a decent ballplayer," the reporter said with a wink.
