Ms. Sue, you are really unhelpful sometimes and i don't feel like you're really a teacher.
Whats the point of going to a site for homework help if the person helping just sends you another link for another site.........
is it a?
Its A, i read the poem.
look Ms. Sue passed guys.
And y'know they never give you the answers. because that isn't a teacher's job, you wouldn't learn anything
I'm not trying to be mean but like seriously, this is a homework help site.
Yes, a.
The answer is A
To determine the correct answer, you can analyze the text of the poem "Mending Wall" by Robert Frost. The speaker in the poem is contemplating the act of building a wall and questioning its purpose. The line that specifically indicates what the speaker would want to know before building the wall is:
"Before I built a wall, I'd ask to know
What I was walling in or walling out"
This line suggests that the speaker would want to understand the reason behind building the wall and what it would be separating or protecting. Therefore, the correct answer is A. "What he was walling in or walling out."
I disagree.
