Read the excerpt from "Mending Wall." Something there is that doesn't love a wall, That sends the frozen-ground-swell under it, And spills the upper boulders in the sun; And makes gaps even two can pass abreast. The work of hunters is another thing: I have come after them and made repair Where they have left not one stone on a stone, But they would have the rabbit out of hiding, To please the yelping dogs. The gaps I mean, No one has seen them made or heard them made, But at spring mending-time we find them there.
Whom does the speaker blame for the gaps in the wall?
nature and hunters
rabbits and dogs
his neighbor himself

Respuesta :

i think the hunters? it says they made repair to where they had done something supposedly bad, so i'm assuming that is the answer.

In "Mending Wall" by Robert Frost, the speaker blames the following for the gaps in the wall:

A. Nature and hunters.

  • In "Mending Wall" the speaker and his neighbor are repairing a stone wall that separates their properties.
  • All the while, the speaker is reflecting about the wall and its meaning. He does not think the wall is needed at all.
  • Nonetheless, he still fixes it. Apparently, that is a work that has to be done often.
  • Nature itself is often making gaps in the wall, especially when the weather gets warmer as it transitions from winter to spring.
  • Hunters are also responsible for making gaps in the wall as they chase their prey.
