Answer: It is immoral to stoop to the level of a murderer and a potentially sociopathic murderer at that. It won't teach them a lesson, it's not like they will have a chance to ever again have the chance to lead a normal life in the outside world. The principle of lex talionis is just a cruel ending to a demented life.

Which of these sentences is written in iambic pentameter? A. I baked my friend a birthday cake today. B. Susan wrote me a friend
Rom4ik [11]

Answer:

D. She danced along to the song on the radio.

Explanation:

Option D is the correct answer because it is written in iambic pentameter.

An iambic pentameter refers to the line that has a pattern or rhythm that has to do with the number of syllables in the line and the emphasis placed on those syllables. In an iambic pentameter, from the word "pent", it's clear that the line has 5 stressed syllable.

For an iambic pentameter in a poem, every single line of that poem will definitely have five stressed syllables.

William Shakespeare's works are known to be often used as examples of iambic pentameter.

What makes the setting of "The Story of an Hour" especially important?
Elis [28]

The correct answer is A.

In the story, the death of her husband would make Louise a widow. This means that she would have no obligation to re-marry, and therefore she would not have to submit herself to another man. Only then she would be free to do as she pleases.

It is very important that the setting of the story is during the nineteenth century because during that time, women were very dependant on men. They were oppressed and forced to stay home to run the household.
