选项 A、by way of
B、in spite of
C、because of
D、by means of

解析 because of意为“因为”。该句子想表达的意思是：两个月之前，该地区由于天热而缺水。由于该句表达的是一种因果关系，because of是合适的选择。by way of表示“经过；通过……方法；用作”等。in spite of意为“不顾；不管”。如：In spite of what you say, I still believe he is honest.不管你说什么，我仍然相信他是诚实的。by means of意为“依靠，用”。如：He succeeded by means of perseverance.他靠坚忍不拔的毅力获得了成功。
