Explanation
Option (a) is the correct answer
- Berlin is located on the banks of the River Spree, which is a tributary of the River Havel in northeastern Germany.
- The Rhine River is one of the most important rivers in Europe. Originating in the Swiss Alps, it flows for about 1,236 km through Switzerland, Germany, France, and the Netherlands before draining into the North Sea.
- The Thames is the longest river in England (346 km) and the second-longest in the UK, flowing through southern England from the Cotswold Hills to the North Sea.
- New York City is associated with the Hudson River, which flows from the Adirondack Mountains into the Atlantic Ocean.
- The Danube River, Europe’s second-longest river after the Volga, originates in the Black Forest region of Germany and flows for about 2,860 km before emptying into the Black Sea through the Danube Delta. It is one of the world’s most international rivers, flowing through or bordering ten countries — Germany, Austria, Slovakia, Hungary, Croatia, Serbia, Romania, Bulgaria, Moldova, and Ukraine — making it the river that passes through the second-highest number of countries after the Nile. Several major European capitals and cities, including Vienna, Bratislava, Budapest, and Belgrade, are located along its banks.
