Question

lupita needs current information for research. which detail from the selection helps analyze the usefulness for lupita?
a \ancient rome has held the attention of scholars and the general public for hundreds of years.\
b \the pont du gard aqueduct draws historians, engineers, writers, and tourists to it every year.\
c \thomas jefferson modeled his library at the university of virginia after the roman pantheon.\
d \without the invention of aqueducts, the empire could not have grown or expanded successfully.\

Explanation:

Lupita needs current research information, so the detail must show ongoing relevance of the subject to modern research/study. Option B describes a specific aqueduct that still attracts modern researchers (historians, engineers, writers) and tourists annually, demonstrating its current usefulness for active research and engagement. The other options focus on past legacy (A, C) or a hypothetical historical dependency (D), which do not relate to current research value.

Answer:

B. "The Pont du Gard aqueduct draws historians, engineers, writers, and tourists to it every year."
