Which line is an example of trochaic tetrameter?

Hey there!

Trochaic tetrameter (try saying that five times fast) is a line of a poem that usually contains about eight syllables that goes in the pattern stressed, unstressed, stressed, unstressed, etc.

But, look at the syllable count for each of the answer options!

A: 10 syllables

B: 8 syllables

C. 10 syllables

D. 10 syllables

So, we immediately see that the correct answer is B, and this fits our stressed, unstressed pattern because you say it like PEter PEter PUMPkin EATer. If you try doing this with the other answer options it sounds really stupid, I tried it and it sounds pretty weird XD

Therefore, the answer is B. Peter, Peter, pumpkin eater.

Have a wonderful day!

in "letter from a birmingham jail," king argues that there are four basic steps in any nonviolent campaign: "[c]ollection of the facts to determine whether injustices exist; negotiation; self purification; and direct action." finally, direct action is taken and acts such as boycotts and sit-ins are staged.

we need to see the statements.
