Read the extract given below and answer the questions (100 - 105) that follow :
Meadows have surprises,
You can find them if you look;
Walk softly through the velvet grass,
And listen by the brook.
You may see a butterfly
Rest upon a buttercup
And unfold its drinking straws
To sip the nectar up.
You may scare a rabbit
Who is sitting very still;
Though at first you may not see him,
When he hops you will.
Explore the meadow houses
The burrows in the ground,
A nest beneath tall grasses
The ant’s amazing mound

According to the poem, which of the following kind of house is NOT found in the meadows ?

Step-by-step Explanation:

1. In the given poem extract, the poet invites us to explore "meadow houses" and explicitly lists the following types of habitats/houses found in the meadows:
- "burrows in the ground"
- "a nest beneath tall grasses"
- "the ant's amazing mound"

2. Let's evaluate the given options based on the poem:

- ant's mound: Mentioned in line 16 ("The ant’s amazing mound").
- nest: Mentioned in line 15 ("A nest beneath tall grasses").
