Some men there are who find in nature all their inspiration, hers the sympathy which spurs them on to any great endeavor, to them the fields and woods are closest friends, and they hold dear communion with the hills; the voice of waters soothes them with its fall, and the great winds bring healing in their sound. to them a city is a prison house where pent up human forces labour and strive, where beauty dwells not, driven forth by man; but where in winter they must live until summer gives back the spaces of the hills. to me it is not so. i love the earth and all the gifts of her so lavish hand: sunshine and flowers, rivers and rushing winds, thick branches swaying in a winter storm, and moonlight playing in a boat's wide wake; but more than these, and much, ah, how much more, i love the very human heart of man. above me spreads the hot, blue mid-day sky, far down the hillside lies the sleeping lake lazily reflecting back the sun, and scarcely ruffled by the little breeze which wanders idly through the nodding ferns. the blue crest of the distant mountain, tops the green crest of the hill on which i sit; and it is summer, glorious, deep-toned summer, the very crown of nature's changing year when all her surging life is at its full. to me alone it is a time of pause, a void and silent space between two worlds, when inspiration lags, and feeling sleeps, gathering strength for efforts yet to come. which word best describes the speaker's relationship to "some men" in "summer"?

The best answer is actually letter C) Distant.
Explanation:
The poem we are analyzing is called "Summer", by author Amy Lowell. It is characterized by strong and vivid imagery of nature. The speaker begins by talking about "some men" and how they view nature and the city. She does not explain who they are, those men. They seem to simply be people she has observed at some point in life only to conclude they are different from herself. While those men are friends with nature but see the city as a mere refuge during winter time, the speaker has a diverse opinion and feeling. She says, "To me it is not so. I love the earth / And all the gifts of her so lavish hand." As we can see, the relationship between the speaker and "some men" is a distant one. They do not share the same point of view. She only knows them well enough to see where they diverge. Who they are, what their lives have been like, the hardships they might have encountered, none of that matters.
