Immigrants to the UK are being tested on their English skills before being able to claim income-related benefits under a new scheme. People are being asked what efforts they have made to find work before coming to Britain.
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". To【C18】______the benefits, migrants will have to pass a "habitual【C19】______test" including more than 100【C20】______questions compared to now. [br] 【C2】
选项
A、or
B、while
C、but
D、and
答案
C
解析
语篇衔接题。前半句表明工党支持英语测试,后半句却指出问题,即大臣们在对移民进行英语测试时忽略了对低技能移民的开发,所以此处应该填入表示转折的连词,故[C]but为正确答案。[A]or用来表示选择关系,[D]and表示并列关系,故均排除;[B]while表示递进,也可排除。
