As many as 40% of university language departments are likely
to close within a decade, the former government adviser charged
with bolstering foreign language uptake in higher education has
warned, delivering a huge blow to the UK’s diplomatic and
economic hopes.
Amid a deepening crisis in a language learning—which is【S1】______
causing alarm at highest levels of government—the number of【S2】______
universities offering degrees in modern languages have already【S3】______
plunged from 105 in 2000 to 62 at the start of this academic year.
The rate of attrition is expected to continue into the next
decade. A further 20 departments will be vulnerable to close in the【S4】______
next 10 years, and there is growing concern that the pace of decline【S5】______
is set to quicken, according to Professor Mike Kelly, a former
adviser on the Department for Education’s steering group on
languages and now head of the government-funded Routes into
Languages programme co-ordinating attempts to increase the uptake
of language degrees in England.
Huge areas of the country are being left without any degree-
level language courses, which in turn is decreasing the number of【S6】______
language teachers in schools, compounding the crisis. Last week it
emerged that A-level candidates for French and German fell to50%【S7】______
between 1996 and 2012.
The Foreign Office has become increasingly concerning about【S8】______
the future of its diplomatic corps, with senior figures privately
voicing urgent concerns about the standard of their graduate【S9】______
recruits. It has built its own languages school and is spending £ 1 m
a year to bring the civil service upon to scratch.【S10】______
【S10】
选项
答案
upon—up
解析
固定搭配中的介词误用。up to scratch的意思是“达到标准”,为固定搭配,故将upon改为up。
