Which sentence best describes the chief characteristics of blank verse? -It is always made up of eight syllables and never rhymes. -It is in iambic pentameter and doesn't rhyme. -It can be in any kind of meter but must never rhyme. -It is in iambic pentameter and must always rhyme.

The answer is second one. Blank verse is unrhyming verse in predictable rhyming lines. This implies the cadence is one-sided towards an example in which an unstressed syllable is trailed by a focused on one and that every typical line has ten syllables, five of them pushed.

The sentence that best describes the chief characteristics of blank verse is B - it is in iambic pentameter and doesn't rhyme. Iambic means that an unstressed syllable is followed by a stressed one. Pentameter means that there are 5 meters, and given that one meter consists of 2 syllables, a pentameter is a type of meter that consists of 10 syllables. This is a type of writing that Shakespear almost exclusively used in his plays.
