the muddy waters of the river 这里为什么是复数?
如果没写错的话,water作水域的意思时是可数名词,所以这里用复数.

water是指水是不可数。
waters是指水流。想象一下成片成片的云clouds.所以成条的水,waters

It should be "muddy the waters". It's an idiom, means "to make a situation more confusing".
eg. He's just trying to muddy the waters so we won't notice all the bad things he's done.
eg.The statistics you quoted didn't prove anything, they simply muddied the waters.
