问题 The _____ of the flood, which caused thousands of people to lose their houses, was 3 weeks of torrential rain.
选项 A、source
B、origin
C、root
D、resource
答案B
解析 考查名词辨析。origin“起源，起因”，指事物后来发生、发展变化的最初起点，或指人的出身和血统，如：words of Latin origin(源于拉丁语的词)。source指河流、泉水等的发源地，常指抽象事物的根源或来源或资料、信息的出处或来源，如：the source of strength(力量的源泉)。root“本质，根本”喻指事物最初、最根本的起因，如：the root of all evil(万恶之源)。resource常以复数形式出现，表示“资源，财力”，如：natural resources(自然资源)。本句指洪水的“起因”，所以origin为正确答案。
