The polio virus cannot live in an immunized individual, and we have Jonas Salk to thank. In 1953, he injected himself, his family, and other volunteers with the polio virus. Which two words have a similar denotation to the word immunized as it is used in the sentence?

- Injected, inoculate.

Explanation:

Denotation is associated with the literal or dictionary meaning of the word. It defines the word literally which is contradictory to the connotative or suggested meaning of the word.

In the given passage, the word 'immunized' denotes 'to make someone immune to something through vaccine or inoculation.' The other words proffering similar denotation would be 'injected or inoculation' as it technically conveys the alike definition i.e. 'to introduce to a material or vaccine in order to generate immunity.' Another word conveying similar essence can be 'vaccinate.'

1. read the following excerpt from franklin d. roosevelt's "fireside chat 19":

on the other side of the picture, we must learn also to know that guerilla warfare against the germans in, let us say serbia or norway, us; that a successful russian offensive against the germans us; and that british successes on land or sea in any part of the world strengthen our hands.

remember always that germany and italy, regardless of any formal declaration of war, consider themselves at war with the united states at this moment just as much as they consider themselves at war with britain or russia. and germany puts all the other republics of the americas into the same category of enemies. the people of our sister republics of this hemisphere can be honored by that fact.  

the true goal we seek is far above and beyond the ugly field of battle. when we resort to force, as now we must, we are determined that this force shall be directed toward ultimate good as well as against immediate evil. we americans are not destroyers — we are builders.
