(From a comprehension piece) what is the percentage of English trade that is with countries that do not speak English?

Comprehension piece: Inglaterra hace el 72% de su trabajo con países donde no se habla inglés. Inglaterra pierde el 69% del comercio europeo porque sus empleados no hablan idiomas extranjeros. Los trabajadores que usan otros idiomas venden un 45% más de productos que otros. Ensure that student reads through three options and picks out key words related to the question (e.g. 'paises' = countries, 'habla' = speak). Stress that it is not necessary for the student to understand every single word of the comprehension, not to worry if they cannot identify a particular word during an exam. Have the student use the key words to choose a percentage, if the answer is wrong ask them about their thought process to understand why the correct answer was not given. Try to avoid translating the text for the student at all costs, where necessary translate some key words. The correct answer for this question is 72%.
