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.

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、given
B、provided
C、supposed
D、taken
答案
A
解析
考查语法知识。此处的句意为“英国工商业联合会副总干事卡特娅-霍尔表示,______欧盟是英国的最大出口市场,英国企业______重视欧洲语言并不出人意料”。根据后面的“重视、并不出人意料”,可知A.given“(表原因)考虑到”符合题意,为正确答案。其他三个选项,provided“如果,假如”,supposed“假定的”,taken“拿,接受”,均不符合题意,故排除。
