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】______ .

选项
A、stance
B、substance
C、composition
D、material
答案
B
解析
近义词辨析。这里的句子要表达的意思是“水对于所有的生命形式都是必需的物质”,空白处需要的是表示“物质”的一个单词;stance 表示的是某人对某件事情的观点和立场;composition 表示的是作曲,绘画或者某物的组成部分;material 可以表示物质,一般指用来制作其他东西的原材料; substance 在表示“物质”的含义时是最为一般意义上的,其英文解释"a particular type of solid,liquid, or gas" 说明了这一点。
