At the very end of 2013 , as other newspapers warned of a terrible flood of migrants, The Economist invited Bulgarians and Romanians to come and work in Britain. So we are【C1】______to report that, since working restrictions imposed when the two countries【C2】______the EU were lifted on January 1st, rather few seem to have【C3】______our offer. Official figures published on May 14th【C4】______that the number of Romanian-and Bulgarian-born people working in Britain【C5】______fell between December and March, from 144,000 to 140,000.
The figure is an estimate【C6】______a large survey and is not certain, says Carlos Vargas-Silva, of the Migration Observatory at Oxford University.【C7】______it does at least suggest there has been no spectacular【C8】______of migrants. That fits with more evidence. On January 1st a group of journalists gamely conquered their hangovers and flocked to Luton Airport to【C9】______new arrivals. They found【C10】______a handful.
The number of Bulgarians and Romanians moving to Britain was always likely to undershoot【C11】______Partly this is【C12】______forecasts were so inflated: media outlets and politicians reported the combined population of the two【C13】______every single citizen would【C14】______sticks and come to Britain. But mostly it is because, as Ion Jinga, Romania’s ambassador to Britain,【C15】______, by January most of the Romanians and Bulgarians who wanted to move had already done so.
Between 2007, when Romania and Bulgaria joined the European Union, and March, the number of people from those countries【C16】______in Britain increased five-fold. Even before labour-market controls were lifted, skilled migrants were able to get work permits【C17】______unskilled ones could be【C18】______Data from the Labour Force Survey analysed in February found that 59% of Romanian and Bulgarians in Britain were self-employed at the end of last year, compared with 14% of the British-born【C19】______Men have had no trouble【C20】______grey-market jobs on building sites, suggests Mr. Vargas-Silva.
【C16】
选项
A、living
B、studying
C、travelling
D、working
答案
D
解析
根据后文反复提到的labour-market“劳动力市场”,work permits“允许工作”,而文章首段也反复提到work in Britain,people working in Britain等信息,可见全文讨论的是因工作移民到英国的这个群体,故本题填入working与原文主题相符,故答案为[D]。
