Answer:

<u>B. Fantastic ways to make a fortune now</u>

Explanation:

In poetry, an iamb is a metrical foot (a group of syllables) that has one UNSTRESSED syllable followed by a STRESSED syllable. There are six types of iamb and its classification is based on the number of iambs there is per lines: dimeter (two iambs per line), trimester (three iambs), tetrameter (four iambs), pentameter (five iambs) or hexameter (six iambs).

From all the choices, option B is the only line that is made of iambs because it has the syllable pattern of iambs: unstressed, stressed, unstressed, stressed... Check it in the following sentence where all stressed syllables are underlined, and all unstressed syllables are not underlined:

B. Fan<u>tas</u>tic <u>ways</u> to <u>make</u> a <u>for</u>tune <u>now</u>

Furthermore, this line is a pentameter because it consists of five iambs.

I have a difficult to learn English how is the best way
nikitadnepr [17]
Well it depends on what you mean by learning English, though it seems that in this sense you mean learning English as your second language. I do not know what your first language is, so I can not help you as effectively, but in general English is one of the hardest languages to learn with all the grammar rules and words involved. I would get a tutor to help you,use Google Translate, get a language learning program, or a book that teaches you the language. Any one of these works, though some not as effective as others. You build up from the basics and use the language you want to learn as often as you can so you can learn faster
