Solution
The correct option is
A
Forest
Trees help keep soil in place by holding a large amount of soil with there roots.
Without trees, rain runs off soil into rivers and streams, raising the water level which leads to floods.
Planting trees acts to shield soil from the winds, and the mulch from fallen leaves forms a layer to protect the soil on the "forest" floor.
Hence the forest helps the soil to prevent the flood.
So, the correct answer is 'Forest'.
