The correct answer is A. Ten syllables divided into pairs of unstressed and stressed syllables

Explanation:

In poetry, verses are composed of rhythmic units, which are called foot, one of the most common ones is the lamb, which is composed of an unstressed syllable and one stressed or accent syllable. Additionally, iambs can be included in different numbers which leads to a different rhythm in the poem this includes the iambic dimeter that is about creating verses by including two iambs, the iambic trimeter which is included three iambs and the iambic pentameter that means five iambs or ten syllables in which each pair is composed by one unstressed and one stressed syllable. Therefore, the description that matches the poetic form of iambic pentameter is "ten syllables divided into pairs of unstressed and stressed syllables".

'Iamb' refers to the sequence of unstressed and stressed syllables, and 'pentameter' means that there are ten syllables (penta means five, so you just multiply it by two). So the correct answer is 'ten syllables divided into pairs of unstressed and stressed syllables'.

Answers: Eric Christ's interpretation: Key points: Direct link to Mc Carthy, easily understood, "Witch Hunt", Realized that it was link to "un-American trials", "statement of unlimited power wielded by apparently  well-meaning albeit paranoid and delusional individuals.

Wade Bradford's interpretation: Key points: Shows no link to Joseph Mc Carthur, believes the facts written were directly about the puritan people in Salen Massachussetes.

Explanation: In the first interpretation there is a strong link to Joseph McCarthy but in the other there is no link. From my point of view, the interpretation that changes the original idea is the second because this play should be understood in the context in which it was written and that was a moment that McCarthysm untied a truly witch hunt in American's society
