Solution

The correct options are
B Near water bodies like lakes and rivers
D Near forests.
People in the past used to live near water bodies so that it would be easier for them to fetch the water needed for daily activities. They also used to live near forests so that they could easily have their food (by hunting or gathering) and other items they needed.
