  The top of his staff
Correct Answer
B. A stick

Explanation
In this passage from 2 Kings 6:4-6, a man's axe head falls into the water while he is cutting down trees. He becomes distressed because the axe head was borrowed. The "man of God" asks where it fell and then cuts off a stick and throws it into the water. Miraculously, the iron axe head floats to the surface. Therefore, the correct answer is "a stick" because it is the object that the man of God uses to make the iron float.
