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.

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、accessible
B、amiable
C、beneficial
D、effective
答案
C
解析
考查形容词辨析及固定搭配。此处句意为“英国工商业联合会和旗下拥有英国《金融时报》的培生教育出版机构在2014年进行的年度教育与技能调查发现,英国各地受访的291家公司中,41%的公司认为外语技能________它们的生意”。be beneficial to为固定搭配,意为“有益于,利于”符合题意,故C.beneficial为正确答案。accessible“易接近的,可理解的”,amiable“和蔼可亲的”,effective“有效的”,均不符合题意,故排除。
