Katja Hall, deputy director-general of Confederation of British Industry (CBI), said that,【B2】______the EU was the UK’s largest export market, it was no surprise to see European languages so【B3】______valued.

选项
A、significance
B、function
C、impact
D、response
答案
C
解析
联系上下文可知,此处在讲述政府鼓励学校开展语言教育的举措是否会有效 果。故C.impact“影响,效果”,符合题意,为正确答案。significance“意义”,在这里不符合题 意,因为政府此举意义明确,是为了鼓励学生学习外语。function“功能,作用”,response“回 应”,均不符合题意,故排除。
