答案 A
解析 3月22日的世界水日有一个“生活中的水”的主题。give：给write：写；discuss：讨论。
世界上有十亿人生活中没有“安全的”饮用水。根据下文可知，这里强调的是没有受到污染的纯净水。
联合国“希望”在2015年前将这个数字削减一半。根据下文可知，这很难办到，因为是联合国的一个“希望”。
根据下一句的but，即“但是”，每个人甚至青少年也可以帮忙，可以得知前面应该为反面意思。所以D选项“不现实”符合题意。
文章需要表达的意思是同龄的“其他人”，因此others符合题意。
对于废旧电池，应该“收集”，即collecting。
废旧电池中污染水源的应该是“化学物质”，选项B符合题意。
“回收”废旧电池是一个好的解决办法。recycling符合题意。
小女孩需要“提，高”大家的环保意识，“提高”用increase表示。tell：告诉；spread：传播；inform：通知。
小女孩主动和当地政府表达自己的想法。选项中只有talk to表达主动意思。listen to：听……说；hear from：得到消息；think about：考虑。
学校、医院、教堂和兮共图书馆属于并列关系，因此用and来连接。 besides：除此之外；as long as：只要；as good as：像……一样好。
前面提到哈格蒂与当地政府交谈，因此这里应该为当地的废物管理官员。 official为官员的意思。worker：工人；clerk：店员；expert：专家。
本段前边提到小女孩收集了四吨的电池，并吸引了官员的注意。这些官员负责电池回收项目，但是进展甚微。but表示和前边的意思相反，和小女孩的影响力相比，官员做得没那么好。所以little符合题意。
根据后面的回答可知，小女孩被问及“是否”感觉像个英雄。
葛罗瑞亚·巴伦奖项是“表彰”那些做出贡献的美国年轻人的，honor：给予……荣誉；praise：表扬；help：帮忙；support：支持。
