根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
By 2025，water shortage will be a big problem for about 1.8 billion people. In a world where water resource is increasingly short，nations cannot afford to waste it.16.________ After we use water in our homes and businesses，it is washed away and takes many valuable resources with it.
Waste water is rich in carbon and nutrients.17.________ A number of nations and major cities have already built waste water treatment plants. They can effectively recover nutrients and bioenergy , and produce “new water” that can be reused. But more than 80% of all waste water still currently flows into natural ecosystems, polluting the environment and taking valuable nutrients and other recoverable materials with it.
18．________ This is still better than the situation in smaller
cities. In Latin American countries, those living in small and medium-sized cities at most treat it in the form of septic tanks(化粪
池) that lack regular and proper maintenance.
Imagine that outside one of these small cities lies a lovely piece of land: on the surface it is pleasingly built and provides habitats for local wildlife. Beneath the surface is a wetland that treats waste water and produces energy. The energy produced saves families from having to use firewood collected in the wild. This is not a dream project.19.________ A team of scientists have been looking into the potential of constructed wetland environments. Having analyzed 800 examples of biomass in more than 20 countries, they found that, depending on climate and the type of plant used in the construction of this type of wetland, up to 45 hectares of land could be irrigated with waste water.20.________ A．But that is exactly what we do.
B．This can provide easy access to clean water.
C．There is no longer any good reason to waste any type of water. D．A constructed wetland environment is already in practice on a small scale.
E．This would reduce the need for fresh water for irrigation and energy for pumping.
F．If collected and treated properly, it could provide “new water”， fertilizer, and energy.
G．Although waste water systems in large cities are effective, the whole procedure usually costs much.
