The others【C2】______to themselves as Welsh, Scottish, or Irish,【C3】______the case may be; they are often slightly annoyed【C4】______being classified as "English".
Even in England there are many【C5】______in regional character and speech. The chief【C6】______is between southern England and northern England. South of a【C7】______going from Bristol to London, people speak the type of English usually learnt by foreign students,【C8】______there are local variations.

选项
A、rendered
B、thought
C、impressed
D、described
答案
D
解析
be described as意为“被描述为”,符合题意。A项“render+名词+形容词”意为“致使……”;B项be thought of as意为“被认为”,而think as无此意;C项impress意为“使……留下印象”,人做主语表示“对……印象深刻”一般不接as.所以D项为正确答案。
