The correct answer is A. The term iambic pentameter refers to a line of poetry with ten syllables with stress put on every other syllable.

Explanation:

In poetry, the iambic pentameter is a type of structure in verses or metric that includes five iambs and because of this is called iambic pentameter. Additionally, the iamb is a unit composed of two syllables the first one is an unstressed syllable or short syllable and the second one is a stressed or long syllable. This implies each verse with iambic pentameter has ten syllables as each iamb has two syllables and it includes an unstressed-stressed syllable sequence or it has stress one every other syllable. Therefore, "iambic pentameter refers to a line of poetry with ten syllables with stress put on every other syllable".

monitta
The two lovers seemed doomed from the day. Set up like a bowling pin, and knocked out the very way.
How could they live with out each other, not a peak nor a stare or a quick view of one another.
Cast down to the pits of Hades they remain, and not each and everyone nor wits are the same.
Eurydice once bit. Tragedy came in a lickety- Split.

What does the author’s language reveal about his tone toward the American Electoral college system? What rhetorical strategies d
Bumek [7]

Answer:

The author, Mike Kubic, has a negative tone towards the American Electoral college system in his 2016 article <em>The American Electoral Process.</em>

He is describing how it is unfair, costly, convoluted, not-entirely democratic, and with dubious results.

  • Unfair, because of the fact that some states (primarily, smaller ones) have more representatives per capita than their bigger counterparts.
  • Costly, because the candidates spend millions, if not billions of dollars running their campaigns.
  • Convoluted, because it takes many months, if not years to prepare.
  • Not-entire democratic, because the people don't vote for the president directly, but rather for representatives who will then choose the president.
  • With dubious results, because of the "super delegates" as well as the case of George W. Bush v. AL Gore he mentions in the article.

He uses many rhetorical strategies to support his perspective, primarily ethos: using quotes, numbers, and statistics to depict the unfairness of the system.

Gnesinka [82]

The classification of the statements is as follows:

1 “Do not believe what our barangay captain says. He is only a high school graduate," Maquie told her neighbors. (d. social class)

2. People who live in Pulang Bato Village, a place where many crimes happen, are bad and dangerous. (a. racial)

  • The sentences have been classified based on the form of discrimination being expressed.

  • In the first sentence, the doubt on the Barangay captain is attributed to the fact that he was just a high school graduate. This is based on social class.

  • Also, in the second sentence, the classification of the people in Pulang Bato Village is based on race.

So, the above are the classifications.
