Read the excerpt from "Mending Wall," by Robert Frost.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.What is Frost describing that “doesn’t love a wall”?

Answer
A
sunlight
B
neighbors
C
ice
D
boulders

Explanation

Frost says the force sends a “frozen-ground-swell” beneath the wall and makes the boulders spill into gaps. The frozen ground expands as water in the soil freezes, pushing stones out of place. So “ice” is what he describes as not loving a wall.
