Work and Pensions Secretary Iain Duncan Smith said people should not be able to " take 【C1】______" of British benefits. Labor supports English tests【C2】______ says ministers are ignoring the exploitation of low-skilled migrant workers.
Job centers in England, Scotland and Wales began using the "more robust" language tests on Monday and they are being【C3】______ to all centers. The Department for Work and Pensions (DWP)said the test would【C4】______ " only migrants who have a legal right to be in Britain and plan to【C5】______to this country can make a claim【C6】______benefits". "For the first time, migrants will be quizzed about what efforts they have made to find work before coming to the UK and whether their English language skills will be a 【C7】______to them finding employment," the DWP said in a【C8】______. DWP sources said the tests【C9】______ everyone whether he is a migrant or not.
Income-related benefits【C10】______council tax benefit, housing benefit, income-based jobseeker’s allowance and pension【C11】______. Mr. Duncan Smith said British people were " rightly 【C12】______" that migrants should contribute to the economy and should not be " drawn here by the 【C13】______of our benefits system".
" It is【C14】______important that we have strict rules in【C15】______to protect the integrity of our benefits system," he said.
He said the new test would help create a 【C16】______system which provided for "genuine" workers and jobseekers but "does not【C17】______ people to come to our country and take advantage".

选项
A、advantage
B、care
C、hold
D、notice
答案
A
解析
名词辨析题。上文提到根据新计划,英国移民在索要与收入相关的福利之前,需先接受英语技能测试。这说明英国政府加强了对移民享有英国福利的控制.表明政府的态度是不希望移民占英国福利的便宜。take advantage of意为“占便宜,利用”,所以应该选[A]advantage。[B]care与take…of构成短语take care of,意为“照顾,关怀”;[C]hold与take…of构成短语takehold of,意为“握住.抓住”;[D]notice与take…of构成短语take notice of。意为“注意到.留意”,均不符合文意,故排除。
