Read the incomplete line of poetry, and complete the line using iambic pentameter.
the frost
a) sometimes colors the world white
b) descends and all the world is white
c) transforms a world in a single morning
d) often alters my view of the world

The correct answer is B.

In order to complete the line using iambic pentameter the world following "frost" has to begin with an unstressed syllable and be followed by a stressed one, like the word "descent."

From then on, the rest of the syllables should follow the same unstressed-stressed pattern.

The line that completes the sentence using iambic pentameter is "descends and all the world is white."

Explanation:

Iambic pentameter is made of five iambs, this is ten syllables where there is an unstressed syllable followed by a stressed syllable, then the complete sentence is pronounced like "The FROST desCENDS and ALL the WORLD is WHITE", the other options do not follow the stress pattern or the number of syllables.

1. read the following excerpt from franklin d. roosevelt's "fireside chat 19":

on the other side of the picture, we must learn also to know that guerilla warfare against the germans in, let us say serbia or norway, us; that a successful russian offensive against the germans us; and that british successes on land or sea in any part of the world strengthen our hands.

remember always that germany and italy, regardless of any formal declaration of war, consider themselves at war with the united states at this moment just as much as they consider themselves at war with britain or russia. and germany puts all the other republics of the americas into the same category of enemies. the people of our sister republics of this hemisphere can be honored by that fact.  

the true goal we seek is far above and beyond the ugly field of battle. when we resort to force, as now we must, we are determined that this force shall be directed toward ultimate good as well as against immediate evil. we americans are not destroyers — we are builders.
