7. A 由后两句可知，现在世界上大约有 20%的人没有足够的水；到 2025 年可能有 70%的人没有足够的水。由此判断，shortage 意思是“缺少；短缺”，即“Something that people don't have enough.”。

【分析】
1. 第6题：题目询问第二段作者提出水资源问题的方式，需聚焦第二段内容，其中出现“20%”“70%”这类具体数据，由此可判断是通过列数字的手法呈现问题，对应选项B。
2. 第7题：猜测“shortage”的含义，要结合上下文语境，后文提到约20%的人没有足够的水，到2025年约70%的人可能面临缺水，由此推断该词表示“短缺”，即人们没有足够的事物，对应选项A。
3. 第8题：找第三段中水资源问题的原因，该段明确提到两点：一是部分地区干旱少雨，二是部分地区存在水资源浪费现象，共两个原因，对应选项B。
4. 第9题：分析第四段主旨，该段开篇点明要节约用水，随后列举了在家节水的具体做法，所以核心内容是介绍如何节约用水，对应选项C。
5. 第10题：选择最佳标题，通读全文可知，文章先讲水的重要性，再讲水资源短缺问题，最后呼吁大家节水，核心主旨是倡导节约用水，因此选项D最贴合文章中心。

8. B 由第三段描述“Some places are always very dry. There isn't a lot of rain. Other places have enough water. But people in these places are not always wise about saving water. They waste too much of it.”可知，造成水资源问题的原因有两个：部分地区干旱少雨、部分地区人们浪费水资源。
