  1. A cantilever bridge is one in which the main sections are supported at one end only or in the middle of the section only.

    Have a look at this link to see the definition and examples

    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cantilever_...


  2. Its a bridge that is fixed  on one end.  

    You can show someone walking a plank (bridge to nowhere) or walking on diving board.  

    I was going to suggest A knight in shining armor, on a draw bridge, but the supports are all wrong.  The bridge is supported at the hinge, which allows the bridge to pivot, and chains or ropes which raise and lower the bridge offer additional support.

    Show two bridges connected in the middle with a hinge, so you travel from one cantilevered bridge to another.  (The hinge in the middle is designed so each side is independently supported.  

    Check out the web site suggested above.

  3. They've already answered your question well except for the 'best bridge' part.  Navajo Bridge at the link provided above might be the most shining example.

  4. a draw type bridge is the best example
