Which one of the following lines is written in iambic pentameter?

English
1 answer:
postnew [5]3 years ago
6 0
The only line among these which is written in iambic pentameter is A) "I lift my lamp beside the golden door."
This line has 10 syllables, which means it has 5 meters (to count the number of meters, you first count the number of syllables and then divide that number by 2). Since it has 5 meters, and the Greek word for 5 is penta, it must be an iambic pentameter.

Select the most plausible reason why Jackson includes the following sentence in "The Morning of June 28, 1948": "I had written t
cluponka [151]

The answer is between B and D.

The 300 villages in the Lottery are blindly obedient to a tradition that is years and years old. Some things have been dropped and others added and nobody quite knows why.

The beginning of June 28 is just as serene. There are all sorts of interpretations, but nothing hides Jackson's anger about blind tradition that would even sacrifice young children and accept it as being a "good sport."

Tilly is the only one who is justifiably upset. The stones are going to be about her and they will kill her. Being stoned in the Bible was a slow painful process. You weren't killed by being hit. You died by suffocation because the weight of the stones eventually was greater than what the lungs could push up and let down so you could continue breathing.

This stoning is less biological and more what you think stoning should accomplish -- death by loss of blood.  It is a horrible death. Everyone seems to take it for granted -- everyone but Tilly who had to endure it.

If you were writing an essay, you could easily defend A, B and D.  My choice is D, but I wouldn't discount B at all.
