Matching the bolded phrases to their meanings in the context of this excerpt from William Shakespeare's Sonnet 2.

besiege - surround, overwhelm

deep trenches - deep pits, wrinkles

proud livery - charms

tatter'd weed - destroyed and wasted

The central theme of Shakespeare's Sonnet 2 is procreating being young for beauty's sake before it is too late. This is an important theme because average life could be thirty-five years. So it is important to have children before reaching forty years of age, because beauty can be overwhelmed, full of deep wrinkles, destroyed and wasted.

What does productive most likely mean?

just olya [345]

pro·duc·tive

/prəˈdəktiv/

achieving or producing a significant amount or result.

sentence: "a long and productive career"

synonyms: advantageous , beneficial , constructive , dynamic , effective , energetic , profitable , prolific , rewarding , useful , valuable , vigorous , worthwhile , generative , fecund, gainful , inventive

antonyms: barren , disadvantageous , fruitless , hurting , idle, impotent , inactive , lethargic , unhelpful , unproductive , useless , valueless , weak , worthless , unfruitful

the word productive often describes a person's capability to do a lot of work, but is can refer to anything that produces a lot. the land in your area might be the most productive in the state, meaning crops grow very well there. productive can be used more broadly to describe something that produces a positive result. for example, you might have a productive conversation with your mom about your college plans, or you might make a productive investment.

hope this helps :)
