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>

How might laughter play a helpful role in someone's medical treatment?
ICE Princess25 [194]

<em>Laughter can play a helpful role in MANY things, especially medical treatment. The reason it plays such a helpful role is because it makes people feel more happy and tends to take someone's mind off of what is going on around them. Once laughter is applied during a medical treatment, it is done to make someone feel less worried about what could be going on around them or how the treatment may go. This is commonly used by surgeons and kemo-therapy doctors when a patient is worried about what may happen.</em>
