"Be HOLD/ how LIKE/ a MAID/ she BLUSH/ es HERE"
This excerpt is an example of iambic pentameter.
An iambic pentameter is a form of a metrical line in which each line contains five unstressed syllables followed by five stressed syllables. They are usually arranged in an alternating pattern.
Shakespeare followed a new tradition of using blank verse in iambic pentameter. He used this form in his writings as it followed the same tone as that of a human’s heartbeat, a horse’ gallop or with the beat of any music. Iambic pentameter added natural speech and the rhythm of life in his verses.
This question is missing the options. I've found the complete question online. It is the following:
Read these lines spoken by Mercutio in Act III, Scene 1 after Tybalt stabs him and answer the question.
No, ‘tis not so deep as a well, nor so wide as a church-door; but ‘tis enough, ‘twill serve: ask for me to-morrow, and you shall find me a grave man.
Of what are these lines an example?
A. allusion
B. pun
C. monologue
D. soliloquy
Answer:
These lines are an example of a:
B. pun
Explanation:
A pun is a joke that can use words that sound similar but have different meanings, or words that offer more than one possible meaning. When Mercutio says, "and you shall find me a grave man," he is making a pun out of the meanings of "grave". A grave man is a serious man, at least in most situations. In this case, he refers to grave as in "tomb", because he is about to die after being injured by Tybalt.

You need to to put 457 inside "the box" and put 4 on the outside. You go to each number to see if 4 goes into it. For example 4 goes into 4 1 time. When you get to the decimals you put a decimal after the number ends and add a 0 until you find the answer.
The answer should be C because the last sentence was talking about how bad things happen in TV shows, so there should be an example of it.
