Answer:

The sentence that is consistently iambic is:

D. Jamal requests a pen.

Explanation:

<u>We can define iamb or iambic foot as a sequence consisting of an unstressed syllable followed by a stressed one. Therefore, if we highlight the stressed syllable in each line, we will be able to verify which one is iambic:</u>

A.Betty told me secrets.

B.Give me your sympathy.

C.Understand pirouettes.

<u>D.Ja</u><u>mal</u><u> re</u><u>quests</u><u> a </u><u>pen</u><u>.</u>

<u>The only sentence that presents iambs is the last one. It contains three sequences of an unstressed syllable followed by a stressed one, which makes it an iambic trimeter. Therefore, letter D is the right answer.</u>
