Answer 1

Answer and Explanation:

3. A.iambic trimetre: In this verse, we can see the division of syllables in a metric that consists of three iambic units in a single line, being therefore an Iambic Trimetre.

4. A. syllables arranged in stress and unstressed patterns: In a poetry, the term "foot" corresponds to the set of syllables that are termed as tonic and atonic. In a simplified way, we can say that the tonical syllables are those that present a strong sound, while the atonic syllables are those that present a weak sound.

5. A.the repetition of consonant sounds at the beginning of words: Alliteration is a figure of speech that corresponds to a sequence of words, which present the same consonontal sound at the beginning of each one.
