(1) When we call someone “pig” or “swine,” we do not mean it as a compliment. (2) But pigs do not deserve to be used as a symbol

for an insult. (3) They are probably not as dirty as they are made out to be. (4) According to one pig keeper, swine are very clean when allowed to live in a clean environment. (5) He feels that pigs are usually dirty simply because their keepers don’t clean their pens. (6) In any case, no one has proven that the pig that wallows in mud prefers that to a cool bath. (7) Furthermore, pigs are smarter than most people think. (8) Many farmers, for example, have observed that pigs frequently undo complicated bolts on gates in search of adventure or romance. (9) So the next time you call someone a pig, perhaps he or she ought to be someone you wish to praise.
5. Specifically, the major details are
a. Pigs are probably not as dirty as people think; pigs are smarter than most people think.

b. Pigs may be dirty because their pens are dirty; it hasn’t been proved that pigs prefer mud to a cool bath; pigs have been seen undoing complicated bolts.

c. People use “pig” and “swine” as insults; “pig” and “swine” should be considered praise.

Match the line length to the term. 1. five feet monometer 2. one foot tetrameter 3. two feet hexameter 4. seven feet trimeter 5.
rjkz [21]

Answer:

1. five feet - pentameter

2. one foot - monometer

3. two feet - dimeter

4. seven feet - heptameter

5. four feet - tetrameter

6. three feet - trimeter

7. six feet - hexameter

8. eight feet - octameter

Explanation:

<u>This question refers to meter in poetry, which is done by counting the number of syllables.</u> However, different types of meter will count syllables in different ways. An iambic pentameter, for example, will consider an unstressed syllable plus a stressed one as one foot. Each line will repeat that pattern five times, which is why it is called pentameter.

<u>To match the columns above, we need to know the meaning of the different prefixes used:</u>

<u>mono - one</u>

<u>di - two</u>

<u>tri - three</u>

<u>tetra - four</u>

<u>penta - five</u>

<u>hexa - six</u>

<u>hepta - seven</u>

<u>octa - eight</u>

Remember that those same prefixes are used in other fields of knowledge? For instance, in geometry, a pentagon is a figure with five sides and five angles.
