    it is ABSOLUTELY NOT A !!!!

  6. (THING AND PURPOSED) A bastion (meaning the projecting part of a fortification) is a structure used for defense; an arsenal (meaning a place used for storing arms and ammunitions) is a building used for storage. (A) Choice (E) is given to trip you because you may think that there is some connection between ‘defense’ and ‘fortification’ and wrongly choose it as the answer)

  7. Tareq says:

    Ok so i dont know whether to say A or C . But i think A makes more sense a Citadel is a fortress in commanding position ( free Online dictionary). The main purpose is not necessary to keep from being seen (meaning of conceal according to Free online dictionary) .
