“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.
the work of hunters is another thing: 5
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 the yelping dogs. the gaps i mean,
no one has seen them made or heard them made, 10
but at spring mending-time we find them there.
i let my neighbor know beyond the hill;
and on a day we meet to walk the line
and set the wall between us once again.
we keep the wall between us as we go. 15
to each the boulders that have fallen to each.
and some are loaves and some so nearly balls
we have to use a spell to make them balance:
"stay where you are until our backs are turned! "
we wear our fingers rough with handling them. 20
oh, just another kind of out-door game,
one on a side. it comes to little more:
there where it is we do not need the wall:
he is all pine and i am apple orchard.
my apple trees will never get across 25
and eat the cones under his pines, i tell him.
he only says, "good fences make good neighbors."
spring is the mischief in me, and i wonder
if i could put a notion in his head:
"why do they make good neighbors? 30
isn't it where there are cows?
but here there are no cows.
before i built a wall i'd ask to know
what i was walling in or walling out,
and to whom i was like to give offense. 35
something there is that doesn't love a wall,
that wants it down." i could say "elves" to him,
but it's not elves exactly, and i'd rather
he said it for himself. i see him there
bringing a stone grasped firmly by the top 40
in each hand, like an old-stone savage armed.
he moves in darkness as it seems to me,
not of woods only and the shade of trees.
he will not go behind his father's saying,
and he likes having thought of it so well 45
he says again, "good fences make good neighbors."
what does the speaker's neighbor probably believe about good neighbors?
good neighbors tell the truth, even when doing so is difficult.
good neighbors are always willing to and share with each other.
good neighbors hunt rabbits and plant apple trees together.
good neighbors keep a certain amount of distance from each other.

13 points : ) which two aspects of scrooge's character does this excerpt from a christmas carol by charles dickens reveal? "i wish to be left alone," said scrooge. "since you ask me what i wish, gentlemen, that is my answer. i don’t make merry myself at christmas and i can't afford to make idle people merry. i to support the establishments i have mentioned—they cost enough; and those who are badly off must go there." "many can’t go there; and many would rather die." "if they would rather die," said scrooge, "they had better do it, and decrease the surplus population. besides—excuse me—i don't know that." "but you might know it," observed the gentleman. his stingy attitude and conduct his distrust of government institutions his indifference to others' suffering his support for the community
