TRUE

Meter is a unit of rhythm in poetry. It refers to the organization of stressed and unstressed syllables in a verse, or within the lines of a poem.

There are different types of meter. The most common is the Iambic metter, in which an unstressed syllable is followed by a stressed syllable. The Trochee meter is the exact opposit: a stressed syllable followed by an unstressed sylable.

Other examples are the Dactyl Meter, which has one stressed syllable followed by two unstressed ones; and the Anapest Meter, which has two unaccented syllables followed by an accented one.

This is true. Meter is the basic pattern which occurs in a poem and deals with the number of feet in a verse and their stress patterns.

What is one of journalist Carroll Kilpatrick's purposes for writing the article "Nixon Resigns"? to explain how the White House

makvit [3.9K]

The correct answer is the last one. Kilpatrick's article shares how White House staff feels about Nixon's resignation.

In the article, numerous aides and officials are quoted. Each gives his thoughts and/or opinions on Nixon's resignation. Many are sorry to see him go. Therefore the second option -- that the staff is unaffected -- is not correct.

The article does not say much about who will become president after Nixon. Furthermore, the staff itself is not changing; only Nixon is leaving. Therefore, the final answer is the correct one.
