PrepTest 52, Section 3, Question 14
Early urban societies could not have been maintained without large-scale farming nearby. This is because other methods of food acquisition, such as foraging, cannot support populations as dense as urban ones. Large-scale farming requires irrigation, which remained unfeasible in areas far from rivers or lakes until more recent times.

Which one of the following is most strongly supported by the information above?
Most peoples who lived in early times lived in areas near rivers or lakes.
Only if farming is possible in the absence of irrigation can societies be maintained in areas far from rivers or lakes.
In early times it was not possible to maintain urban societies in areas far from rivers or lakes.
Urban societies with farms near rivers or lakes do not have to rely upon irrigation to meet their farming needs.
Early rural societies relied more on foraging than on agriculture for food.
