They urge the local government that the problem as soon as possible.

A. handles

B. could be handled

C. must be handled

D. be handled

答案：

A. handles

B. could be handled

C. must be handled

(答案→)D. be handled

解析：考查情态动词的用法。句意：他们强烈呼吁当地政府要尽快处理那个问题。Urge 后面的宾语从句要用should+动词原形，其中should可以省略。所以D为正确选项。
