Most nations have water quality regulations for water sold as drinking water, although these are often not strictly【C11】______ outside of the developed world.

【C5】
选项
A、drinkable
B、consumed
C、edible
D、consumption
答案
D
解析
如果用与drink 相关的词汇来表达“适合人类饮用的”,应该是drinking 而不是A drinkable;consume 这个词除了我们熟悉的“消费,消耗”之外,还可以表示"the act of eating or drinking",所以从意义和词性上来说,都是最恰当的;B的词性在这里不合适;C表示“可食用的”。
