In “They are hostile nations,” why does the author choose the word “dormant” to in line 21?

explanation:

shower, toothbrush, toasters, refrigerators,   and the lights

you use the lights to see and brighten a room. and with out them you cant see. you need a toothbrush to clean your teeth with out it stinky breath. shower to wash ya self and without it you stink. toaster to toast stuff without it nothing is toasted. and the refrigerator to keep stuff cold without it everything goes bad

d is the best answer for this question.
