Even worse, some of it has been polluted.
However, as things stand today, this small amount of fresh water,【C3】______is constantly being replaced by rainfall, is still enough for us. But our need【C4】______water is increasing rapidly—almost day by day. Only if we take steps to deal with this problem now【C5】______a severe worldwide water shortage later on.
