A. as B. for what C. of which D. for what
选哪个呢?为什么?

应该是A,至少我认为选A.这一题考的是非限制性定语从句.which代指前面的its problems.of which即指of its problems.即翻译为"在这些问题之中

"I think you have misunderstood the meaning of this part of the sentence: "Obtaining water is not the least". Now let's analyze its real meaning:

the least = the one that is the lowest in rank = the least serious /the least important

NOT the least = NOT the one that is the lowest in rank = NOT the least serious = Quite serious

not the least of these problems = a quite serious problem

Of which obtaining water is not the least = obtaining water is not the least of these problems = 获取水 就是其中一个 严重 的问题

That's why you should choose A as the correct answer.

C
