The option that correctly expresses the word usage in the sentence is provided below. It is;
- A. It has a dangling modifier.
A dangling modifier is a word or group of words that describe a noun that was not intended.
In the sentence provided, the dangling modifier is the phrase, "Being a disaster." This phrase incorrectly describes the noun, John instead of the event that was a disaster which is, the flood.
There is a misplacement of the correct noun which is to be modified in the sentence.
Because the noun, John came immediately after the modifying phrase, a reader can misunderstand the sentence to mean that John, instead of the flood was a disaster.

I looked this question up and, in one of the sites where I found it, each number had two answer choices. Just in case, I will use them here.
1.
A. She may / might / could be working too hard.
B. She must be working too hard.
2.
A. He must not earn very much.
B. He may not / might not earn very much.
Answer:
The answers are:
1. A. She may / might / could be working too hard.
2. B. He may not / might not earn very much.
Explanation:
The modal verbs "may", "might" and "could" are used to express possibility. Therefore, they do not convey much certainty, that is, the speaker is not 100% sure of what he / she is saying, but he / she knows there is a possibility of being right.
That is why those verbs are the best ones to complete the sentences above. In both cases, the speaker is supposing, assuming something. In the first sentence, the speaker believes it is possible that Deborah is tired because she is working too hard. In the second one, the speaker assumes "he" is likely to not earn much because he never goes on holiday.
Note: "Could" is also used to express ability in some cases.
