Sample AP Latin practice question

When evaluating the proposed aqueduct at Sinope, Pliny describes the ground as a "locus suspectus et mollis." In this specific engineering context, what is the correct translation of the adjective "mollis"?

The ground is structurally soft and unstable.

Correct answer

The ground is pleasantly gentle and inviting.

The ground is highly flexible and adaptable.

The ground is physically tender and delicate.

Explanation

Evaluating the adjective mollis in an architectural and geological context requires selecting its physical, load-bearing definition. When describing a locus (place) meant to support an aqueduct, mollis indicates that the earth is too yielding to safely bear the heavy structural weight.
