It exists in many places and forms. It appears mostly in the oceans and polar ice caps, but also【C3】______ clouds, rain water, rivers, freshwater aquifers, and sea ice.

Drinking water is water that is intended to be drunk by humans. Water of【C8】______ quality to serve as drinking water is called potable water whether it is used as such or not. Although most fresh water sources are drinkable【C9】______ humans, they can be a disease vector or cause long-term health problems if they do not【C10】______ certain water quality guidelines.
Most nations have water quality regulations for water sold as drinking water, although these are often not strictly【C11】______ outside of the developed world. Virtually all municipal water systems deliver a single quality of water, whether it is to be used for drinking, washing or landscape irrigation.
In the United States, public drinking water is【C12】______ by the Safe Drinking Water Act (SDWA). Among other【C13】______ , it protects the right of employees to report potential【C14】______ .

【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”。
