The severe drought left the local almost empty, which prevented the farmers from properly watering their crops. Which one is it?

A-Dehydrate
B-Hydroelectric
C-Hydrant
D-Aquatic
E-Aqueduct
F-Aquarium
G-Aquifer
H-Marine
I-Marina
J-Maritime

E - Aqueduct

Explanation:

All of the following words have a meaning somehow connected to water. The word that is missing in the following sentence is obviously a noun (we can ask - What has the drought left empty? The local what?), so we can eliminate all words that are not nouns.

To dehydrate is a verb.

Hydroelectric, aquatic, marine, and maritime are adjectives.

The remaining words are nouns.

A hydrant is an outlet from a fluid main that consists of an upright pipe with a valve attached from which fluid (like water) can be tapped. It is not used by farmers to water crops.

An aqueduct is a watercourse constructed to carry water from a source to a distribution point far away. It can be used by farmers to water crops.

An aquarium is the same as a fish tank.

An aquifer is an underground layer of water-bearing permeable rock, rock fractures, or unconsolidated materials, such as sand.

A marina is a small port designed for small pleasure boats.

Thus, the correct option is E - Aqueduct.

the tone of the passage is sympathetic to the forbidden love of romeo and juliet. the nurse plays a significant role in the play. she is responsible for making their meeting again possible. additionally, there is a sense of warning in the choice of words of the nurse. she seems to be authoritative when she calls romeo "scurvy knave", and at the same time the fact that she addresses to him as "sir" reflects respect. the nurse is "vexed", this word describes her confused state of mind. on the one hand, she finds romeo a fine and eloquent man, but on the other, it is thought that man's nature forces men to try to trick women.
