Straight away, it is clear that A and E are wrong
A : The possibility of floods are - Incorrect
E : The possibility of floods by - Incorrect
D completely changes the meaning of the original statement. Mostly modifies regarded and becomes adverb!
There is a subtle difference in meaning between B and C.
C : The possibility......is regarded..... as a mixture. Doesn't make any sense here! Possibility as a mixture?
B : The possibility......is regarded..... with a mixture. Initially not so convincing but conveys a better meaning!
IMO B is correct!
A : The possibility of floods are - Incorrect
E : The possibility of floods by - Incorrect
