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 causing【S1】_________________
alarm at highest levels of government—the number of universities【S2】_________________
offering degrees in modern languages have already plunged from 105 in【S3】_________________
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 next 10 years,【S4】_________________
and there is growing concern that the pace of decline is set to quicken,【S5】_________________
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 increasing the number of language【S6】_________________
teachers in schools, compounding the crisis. Last week it emerged that
A-level candidates for French and German fell to 50% between 1996 and【S7】_________________
2012.
The Foreign Office has become increasingly concerning about the【S8】_________________
future of its diplomatic corps, with senior figures privately voicing urgent
concerns about the standard of their graduate recruits. It has built its own【S9】_________________
languages school and is spending £lm a year to bring the civil service upon【S10】_______________
to scratch.
【S4】
选项
答案
close—closure
解析
词性混用。该句意为“另外20个学院在未来10年内也面临着关闭……。”固定短语be vulnerable to中的to为介词,后面需跟名词或动名词形式,故将close改为closure。
