In the limerick below, select the boxes next to all of the lines that have three beats and rhyme with each other. There was an Old Man on a hill, Who seldom, if ever, stood still; He ran up and down, In his Grandmother's gown, Which adorned that Old Man on a hill.

There was an Old man on a hill

Explanation:

Try singing the limerick and use your hand (or foot) to count the beat:

There was an Old man on a hill, = 3 beats

Who seldom, if ever, stood still; = 3 beats

Now try to do triple meter with the next line; quite difficult, don´t you think?

• There was an Old Man on a hill,

• Who seldom, if ever, stood still;

• Which adorned that Old Man on a hill.

Explanation:

If you read all of them, you'll realize they all have 3 beats.

the answer is option (a)

option a is correct because you don't need the word (he) in that paragraph because the reader already knows you're talking about albert einstein so you don't need it it's not necessary.
