Question

Which statement about iambic meter is true?



Each foot consists of two unstressed syllables followed by a stressed syllable.



Each foot consists of one stressed syllable followed by one unstressed syllable.



Each foot consists of three consecutive stressed syllables.



Each foot consists of one unstressed followed by a stressed syllable

Answer 1

It would be D > A specific type of foot is an iamb. A foot is an iamb if it consists of one unstressed syllable followed by a stressed syllable, so the word remark is an iamb. Pent means five, so a line of iambic pentameter consists of five iambs – five sets of unstressed syllables followed by stressed syllables.
