【原文】
The world is not only hungry but it is also thirsty for water. This may seem strange to you for nearly 70% of the earth’s surface is covered with water. But about 97% of that huge amount is sea water. Man can only drink and use the three percent—fresh water that comes from rivers, lakes and underground. And we cannot even use all of it because some of it is polluted. However, the small amount of fresh water, which is sometimes replaced by rain, is still enough for us now. But our need for water is increasing rapidly almost day by day. Only by taking steps now can we avoid the serious water shortage in the future. One way is to make use of sea water by removing the salt, which is already in use in many parts of the world.
【译文】
世界不仅缺少粮食，而且也缺少水资源。你可能会觉得奇怪，因为近70%的地球表面被水覆盖。但是大约97%的水资源是海水。人可饮用或使用的水只占其3%——来自江河、湖泊或者地下水。我们甚至不能完全利用它，因为有部分已经被污染了。然而，现在这小部分淡水资源对我们来说还是足够的，因为淡水资源有时来自于雨水。可是我们对水的需求的增长越来越快。我们只有采取措施去解决，如去除海水盐分，充分利用海水资源。这种方法已经在世界某些地方开始使用了。
11.【解析】题意：我们面临的世界问题是饥饿和水问题。根据短文第一句 “The world is not only hungry but it is also thirsty for water.” 可知，世界不仅缺少粮食，而且也缺少水资源。本题说法正确，故答案为A。
