The correct answer is:  

Iamb.  

An iamb is a two-syllable metrical pattern used in poetry in which the first syllable is unstressed and the second syllable is stressed. “Attain,” and “define” show the iambic pattern of unstressed and stressed syllables. In English poetry, metrical patterns are called feet, so an iamb is a type of foot.

How does jane's desire to see the good in everyone differ from elizabeth's judgments?
kirza4 [7]
Jane is a prototype of a sweet, innocent, romantic girl who waits for her prince to come and take her into the sunset. In a way, this is what a girl was supposed to be in the harsh Victorian society. She should exhibit a sweet, angelic nature. On the other hand, Elizabeth is a strong willed individual, who has her own persuasions - or at least aspires to them. She is not a passive observer, but tries to build her own life. Being a complicated person herself, she doesn't readily trust what people say or do. That's why she eventually falls in love with Mr. Darcy, even though he has been repulsive from the very beginning of the novel. But even though in love, she isn't blind; she realizes that they are compatible souls, and that is the main reason she marries him.

3. On the day of the flight, young Norman Ollestad notices especially thick clouds and overhears a radio warning about the weath
kupik [55]

The pilot's reaction was to hold the steering wheel tight and make a daring maneuver. Ollestad didn't express his concerns as he wanted to win the championship.

<h3>Why did the pilot decide to face the bad weather?</h3>
  • Although the weather was not favorable, the pilot was experienced and very efficient in his profession.
  • He knew what he intended to do was risky, but he felt he could handle the process.
  • For this reason, upon hearing the weather information, he decided to hold on to the plane's steering wheel and dive into a risky but highly controlled and successful maneuver.

Ollestad felt very apprehensive, but he felt that it was necessary to be bold to win the championship.

With this, we can see the theme that overcoming fears can be rewarding.
