The word aqueduct comes from the Latin words "Aqua" meaning water and "ducere" meaning to lead. Then it becomes the Latin word "aquae ductus" meaning conduit. Therefore, the meaning of the word aqueduct is a structure that leads water. The correct answer is option B.

"<u>Aquaeductus</u>", <em><u>which is the result of the sum of two components</u></em>:

-<em><u>The noun</u></em> "<u>aqua</u>", <em><u>which is synonymous with</u></em> "<u>water</u>".

- <u>"Duct"</u>, <em><u>which derives from the verb</u></em> "<u><em>ducere</em></u>", <em><u>which is equivalent to</u></em> <u>"guide"</u>.

<u>Therefore, an aqueduct is a channel artificially constructed to carry water to a specific site</u>.

<em><u>The answer is</u></em>: <u>B. A structure that leads water</u>.

What does the radio broadcast, transcript, and video of the Hindenburg disaster show about how media affects the way people unde
ELEN [110]
The best answer here is D. Each type of broadcast is going to offer something different. While hearing a radio broadcast might seem to not convey the depth of the disaster, a video one will show how terrible it is. Usually this will make the audience more aware of the reality. The same is true to a transcript. Going back to read something that has already happened takes something from the presentation. You don't get the emotion that would be present in a radio broadcast or even a video one.
