Nearly two-thirds of businesses in the UK want to recruit staff with foreign language skills. French is still the most highly prized language, but Spanish and Mandarin speakers are more 【C1】______ demand than in the past.
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、company
B、group
C、publisher
D、association
答案
C
解析
考查名词辨析。此处句意为“英国工商联合会和旗下拥有英国《金融时报》的培生教育在2014年进行的年度教育与技能调查…”,分析句子结构可知,空格所在处解释说明Pearson,Pearson为世界上最大的教育出版机构,故C.publisher“出版社”符合题意,为正确答案。其他选项,company“公司”,group“集团”,文章中没有明确Pearson是公司还是集团,此外,这两项没有publisher切合题意,故排除。association“协会,社团”明显不符合题意。
