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.

The number of students studying foreign languages has【C19】________in the past decade. In January, the UK Commission for Employment and Skills said the number of "skills shortage vacancies" had risen from 16 per cent of all【C20】________in 2009 to 22 per cent in 2013.

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。
