Katja Hall, deputy director-general of Confederation of British Industry (CBI), said that,【C2】______the EU was the UK’s largest export market, it was no surprise to see European languages so【C3】______valued. "【C4】______ with China and Latin America seeing solid growth, ambitious firms want the language skills that can【C5】______the path into new markets," she said.
The 2014 annual education and skills survey by the CBI and Pearson, the educational【C6】______that owns the Financial Times, 【C7】______ that 41 percent of the 291 companies surveyed across the UK【C8】______knowledge of a foreign language was 【C9】______ to their business. European languages—French, German and Spanish—still 【C10】______ the list in terms of desirability, but these were closely【C11】______by Mandarin and Arabic.
Ms Hall said it was【C12】______whether recent government initiatives to encourage language learning in schools would have any【C13】______. "It has been a【C14】______to see foreign language study in our schools under pressure with one in five schools having a【C15】______low take-up of languages," she said.

选项
A、persistently
B、unpredictably
C、accidentally
D、irregularly
答案
A
解析
考查副词辨析。此处句意为“…就有一所存在外语学习者人数______下降的现象”。联系上下文可知,外语学习者人数持续下降令人担忧。故A.persistently“持续地”符合题意,为正确答案。unpredictably“不可预见地”,accidentally“偶然地,意外地”,irregularly“不规则地”,均不符合题意,故排除。
