I'm writing an argumentive essay about whether chess could be considered a sport or not. what do you think and why do you think that?

Personally, I think it's in an interesting grey area. Before I played chess, I definitely would have said no, because I associated sports with physical exertion (I was a soccer player). However, when I went to my first chess tournament, I could feel real, physical effects. My heart was beating like crazy, and there was a lot of mental exertion. It's like a mental workout, even though it's not a physical one.

Hope this helps!

no, because a sport is more of running and being energized while chess is more of sitting there waiting for the game to end

sry if im being bias

the correct answer would be d, i never like waking up.

explanation:

iambic tetrameter is a meter which is basically a line consisting of four feet of iambic and it is used in poetry. it consists of unstressed syllables followed by a stressed syllable. in this question, the only statement which is giving the feel of being stressed is option d, which says that i never like waking up. it means the person is feeling stressed whenever he wakes up. he never likes to wake up and and whenever he wakes up, he doesn't like it. so a sense or feel of being stressed is in this statement.
