How does the poet's word choice to describe T cells contribute to the meaning of the poem​

English
1 answer:
DiKsa [7]2 years ago

Answer: By comparing T cells to soldiers, the author stresses their importance in keeping the immune system healthy.

Explanation:

In his poem,<em> "Immunity"</em>, Kim Roberts stresses the importance of T cells for our immune system.

He compares T cells to "sentries " that stand "at a crenellated wall." In other words, these cells protect our immune system, just like the warriors protect their defensive wall in a battle. He describes the cells as holding sheets, and he can hear their "rhythmic chant." With this word choice, the author emphasizes that, without T cells, it would be impossible to preserve immunity.

Explain Theseus' Comparison of waiting to a "step-dame or a dowager"
MrRa [10]
A step-dame (stepmother) and dowager (widow holding property for her deceased husband) would make their son (or stepson) wait until they die to inherit all of the land or money.

Theseus is saying that he is tired of waiting for his wedding day to Hippolyta, comparing himself to that 'young man' waiting for his dowager or stepdame to die because to him, Hippolyta is a great fortune.
