To cue the members of the band.

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.

What is the meaning of consequence as it is used in the dialogue
Dmitry [639]

Answer:

I can't see the dialogue, but I believe it may mean it's a result of a certain action - it usually has a negative connotation. So likely a punishment / or a result of what someone did/said.

Answer:

I'm not sure what you're wanting but I didn't sleep good would have sounded better with I didn't sleep well no word immediately is spelled wrong it should be I let another hour pass The word quick is in the wrong place shower quickly would be more appropriate The word early does not belong there should not be an explanation mark after headache when I finally arrived would be more appropriate there is no such word as worser it is just plain worse also I don't think I should have an exclamation mark unless they're stressing those two sentences then it would be appropriate as far as the commas go there are a couple misplaced or added extra but I'm not really sure which ones.
