Which statement best describes the meter?

A. The meter is free, imitating the flow of conversational speech.

B. The meter is free, making the poem unpredictable.

C. The meter is fixed, and every syllable is stressed.

D. The meter is fixed, drawing attention to the end rhyme.

Answer:

The correct answer is letter D. The meter is fixed, drawing attention to the end rhyme.

Explanation:

<em>As every eye awaits her hand </em>

<em>To cue the members of the band. </em>

The lines above are an example of iambic tetrameter. <u>An iamb is a sequence consisting of an unstressed syllable followed by a stressed one. Since we have that pattern repeat 4 times in each line, they are called iambic tetrameters (tetra means 4). Since both lines have the same meter, we can say the meter is fixed. Also, since they are iambic, they end in a stressed syllable, which draws attention to the end rhyme.</u> Therefore, the correct answer is D. The meter is fixed, drawing attention to the end rhyme.

Alifa Rifaat's short story "Another Evening at the Club" paints a clear picture of  the powerless, inferior role of women in Egyptian society: the main character Samia is trapped in an arranged marriage in which she is repeatedly forced into betraying her own values and beliefs.

For example, when Bey, her husband, says to Samia "Tell people you're from the well-known Barakat family and that your father was a judge," she is obliged to lie about her own family's social status, in spite of how she was raised to be an honest person, just for the sake of making Bey look more important in the public eye.

In the end, Bey forces Samia into the ultimate act of dishonesty: protecting a lie that is causing their servant to be tortured, only to avoid his husband's embarrassment, when he says "By now the whole town knows the servant stole the ring—or would you like me to tell everyone: 'Look,folks, the fact is that the wife got a bit tiddly on a couple of sips of beer and the ring took off on its own and hid itself behind the dressing-table."
