Both The Declaration of Independence and “Hope, Despair and Memory” commemorate the historical event that the authors are appealing to. In the Declaration, Thomas Jefferson uses literary attention technique by describing tyrannical actions of King George III and asking for independence from Great Britain. In "Hope, Despair and Memory," the author compares this past to the future when he discusses his experience in a concentration camp in Germany during World War II.

In iambic pentameter, each verse consists of five metrical feet. Meter is a poem's rhythm, and feet are units of that rhythm.
In an iamb, an unstressed syllable is followed by a stressed syllable, as in the word "hello."
"Penta" means five, so a verse of iambic pentameter has five iambs.
Five pairs of unstressed syllables followed by stressed syllables.
Five pairs gives a total of ten syllables. So the answer is B, "each line contains ten syllables."
A. Barnum employed outrageous stunts, repetitive advertising, and exaggerated publicity to excite international attention for such amusements as the public museum, the musical concert, and the three-ring circus.
b. Bailey, he made the American circus a popular and gigantic spectacle, so-called The Greatest Show on Earth.

There's plenty of evidence in the story that arguments her point of view. The irony in "Story of an hour" is a good example of how women were treated and expected to behave. She was thought to be depressed and sad about his husband's death but she's actually happy and cheerful about the good news of his death. Although she feels joyful, she can't understand her feelings because she knows she's not expected to feel that way. Another good example is the ending, everyone thinks she died because of joy at seeing his husband alive but in fact, she may have died from a heart attack because her happiness only lasted for an hour. Society's expectations and pressures on women are still a present issue. Beauty standards, gender roles, and the fashion industry are just a little few examples of how society shapes women's lives. Social media, propaganda and the fashion industry show women of a certain race, age and body type. They just stick the beauty standards and these tell women how they should be in order to have beauty, but it doesn't encourage them to love themselves as they are.
Another example is the thought that a woman without a husband is miserable and incomplete. Her family thinks that he's destroyed because her husband should be her whole world but actually she doesn't care about being lonely at all, she just thinks about her freedom. The society's pressure for getting married has changed a bit but it differs in many countries and societies. However, it is still a present issue that women are not taken seriously when they said they won't get married or have children. They are thought has selfish because of having a different perspective and plan for their lives different from the one everyone expects them to follow.
