General Insurance Principles第 167 / 474 题
A windstorm tears shingles off a roof that a poor repair had left loose. In insurance terms, the windstorm is:
a.the loss, and the loose repair work is the peril
b.a hazard, and the loose repair work is the risk
c.a hazard, and the loose repair work is the peril
d.the peril, and the loose repair is a hazard
解析

The choice that calls the wind a hazard reverses the two terms, and the loss is the resulting reduction in value, not a cause.
