Contrastive distribution occurs when  two sounds placed in the same context produce different meanings.  This is the case in the sounds [k] and [x] . For example: <em>[kano] 'do' versus [xano] 'lose'. </em>

The same happens with the sounds [ç] and [c]. They are in constrastive distribution as in shown in the following example: <em>[çino] 'pour' versus [cino] 'move </em>

In complementary distribution, where one sound occurs the other cannot.  This is the case in  the sounds [k] and [c] The first sound  (palatal stop) appears before front vowels whereas the second sound (velar stop) appears elsewhere.

The sounds [ç] and [x] are also in complementary distribution. As in the previous example, the palatal appears before front vowels and the velar appears elsewhere

Why should you get your news from more than one source?
Anastasy [175]

The correct answer is C. To get different points of view on the news.

Even though news are often based on the same facts, events can be perceived from different perspectives. These different perspectives or angles are translated into the news and give as a result different points of view. These differences rely heavily on the ideology and the interests each source represents and stands by.

So, as the manner in which information is presented may vary because they are subject to the standpoint from which each source looks at the event, we should get the news from different sources to create our own critical opinion about events.
