Question

Why does the speaker say that the chasm might be a pitfall for the fair-haired
youth? What does the old man do after this? Why does he do that?
The Bridge Builder​

Answer 1

Answer:

the speaker says that the chasm might be a pitfall to the fair haired man as he is inexperienced and does not know how to tackle problems, and he might fear the chasm and would not even cross it to achieve his dreams

the old man builds a bridge over the chasm for the people who will come, like the fair haired man, so that at least their journey is not tiring and comfortable.
