This question is missing the options. I've found the complete question online. It is the following:

In the context of the poem, which image most fully reflects the speaker's disapproval of the neighbor's attitudes?

A. "gaps even two can pass abreast" (line 4)

B. "the boulders that have fallen" (line 16)

C. "He is all pine" (line 24)

D. "He moves in darkness" (line 41)

E. "the shade of trees" (line 42)

Answer:

I believe the image which most fully reflects the speaker's disapproval of the neighbor's attitudes is:

D. "He moves in darkness" (line 41)

Explanation:

The speaker in the poem "Mending Wall", by Robert Frost, is rebuilding a wall with his neighbor. However, he does not see the need for the wall. He believes the wall creates a separation and an isolation that are unnecessary. He wishes he could convey such thoughts to his neighbor, but that seems to be impossible. His neighbor believes "Good fences make good neighbors." The speaker does not like this saying nor the neighbor's attitude. He would much rather at least consider what he is " walling in or walling out." That is why he sees the neighbor as if he is moving in darkness. His neighbor is not as enlightened as he is. He is close-minded; a repeater of old patterns:

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

He says again, ‘Good fences make good neighbors.’

Give a speech that takes a clear stand about the Vietnam Veterans Memorial. Instead of just giving information about the memoria

SpyIntel [72]

Vietnam Veterans Memorial is a monument of 8000 square meters. It honors the members of the US Army who have died and are missing. Construction and manufacture was the cause of the controversy, which led to an additional construction. The memorial wall that was the cause of the controversy was designed by architect Maya Lin. The problem would be that the wall is black and without ornaments, then, it was lacking in resolving the national conflict over the war. It did not reflect the real circumstances that would speak about conflicting opinions about the war, as well as the minimalist design of the monument that diminishes the value of sacrifice of US soldiers. Some officials, among whom the most vocal were James Webb and H. Ross Perot, called it "the black wall of shame," "slapping in the face of those who served." At first they were supporters of Maya Lin's design, but later they became opponents seeing how the design looks. They also called it a "Nihilistic stone slab". Their claims were supported by the fact that Maya Lin is a young Asian student, and as such is not qualified to design such a monument.
