问题     Within EU primary education, a clear majority of pupils choose to study
English like a foreign language. Indeed, learning English is mandatory in (1)______
several countries within secondary education institutions, and so the number (2)______
of Member States have close to 100% of pupils learn this language already in (3)______
primary education. The highest shares of primary education pupils studying
English in 2009 were recorded in Italy, Spain, Austria and Greece, with
more than nine out of every ten children studying English in every of these (4)______
countries (which was also the case in Norway and Croatia). The related im- (5)______
portance of English as a foreign language may be further magnified because
pupils tend to receive more instruction in their first foreign language as they (6)______
do for any subsequent languages they choose to study.
    The central and eastern European Member States that joined in the EU (7)______
in 2004 and 2007 are in a particular position with regard in language teaching, (8)______
as learning Russian was compulsory for many pupils in the past. This situation
has changed rapidly and these days most pupils have more choice concerning
the language(s) they wish to study. In most of these countries there has been
a marked increase in the proportion of pupils learning English, often above
40% of all students and in Bulgaria, Lithuania, Poland and Estonia over
65%. Luxembourg is also of particular interest, insofar there are three offi- (9)______
cial languages, with more pupils receiving instruction in Luxembourgish, (10)______
German and French at primary level; English is introduced at secondary school. [br]

解析 介词冗余。join意思是“加入,参加”,join in表示“参加某种活动”,join后直接接宾语表示“加入某种组织”,在这里指加入欧盟,故将介词in去掉。
