Answer:

Driving.

Explanation:

A gerund is the derivative of the present participle form of the verb that functions as a noun. These may be subjects, subject complements, direct objects, indirect objects or the objects of the preposition. <em>Thus, the word that justifies the above claim and functioning as a gerund is 'driving' as it is functioning as the subject of the verb "was". The other options exemplify the adjectives as they are modifying the noun rain, wind, and adventure while 'driving' is functioning as a noun.</em>

Which sentence is consistently iambic?A.Betty told me secrets.B.Give me your sympathy.C.Understand pirouettes.D.Jamal reques
Bad White [126]

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>
