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.

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。
