Explanation:

In "Two Ways of Viewing the River," author Mark Twain explores the theme that experience and habit take the wonder off of things. At first, he is excited about the river, still capable of seeing it for its beauty and majesty. However, once he becomes a steamboat pilot, the river no longer has the power to amaze him. He now knows the river way too well - he has seen it too many times. He is no longer capable of appreciating its beauty, finding it boring, sometimes even ugly.
