Question

read the sentence. the confluence of the two rivers created a fertile area, ideal for cultivating crops. what does the word confluence most likely mean in this sentence? ○ the meeting of two or more bodies ○ a particularly dry region ○ a dangerous situation ○ the pollution of a natural resource

Explanation:

In the sentence, it's about two rivers. A confluence of rivers is when they meet. The other options don't fit: a dry region is opposite of fertile, a dangerous situation and pollution of resource have no relation to creating a fertile area from rivers. So "the meeting of two or more bodies" (here, bodies of water) makes sense.

Answer:

the meeting of two or more bodies
