Many ancient civilizations ............... on the banks of major rivers.
Correct answer: C. sprawled
- A. dashed
- B. flourished
- C. sprawled
- D. succeeded
Explanation
The correct answer is 'sprawled' because it describes how ancient civilizations expanded and developed along riverbanks, taking advantage of the resources and fertile lands. 'Dashed' implies a swift movement and is not relevant to the context. 'Flourished' indicates prosperity but does not specify how they physically spread. 'Succeeded' refers to achieving success but does not describe the geographical aspect of civilization development.
