问题 Career with a Uniform
Want to be the next Xu Sanduo? The TV drama Soldiers' Sortie (突击) (Shibing Tuji) might have caused millions of young people to dream of putting on an army uniform and going to camp.
In fact, a large number of students graduating might consider doing just that. Last month, the People's Liberation Army (PLA) announced that there will be 120,000 job openings this year for college graduates. So, one out of every 50 graduates has a chance if he or she would like to march down to the local recruiting office. Anyone enlisting will get preferential treatment in tuition compensation and in job opportunities.
This decision comes against a backdrop of bad employment news and a cooling economy.This year's recruitment quota outnumbers last year's 39,000 by about three-fold.
"It's important to pull in fresh, talented people who can deal with the new equipment and a high-tech military to modernize the nation's defense," said Bai Zixing, a senior officer in the PLA.
The age limit for college recruits has been raised to 24, and there's one more important policy change: graduates who have already volunteered to sign up can quit if they change their minds after finding another job before November, the deadline for enlistment. This gives graduates an extra choice in starting a career.
The following is a list of preferential things that college graduates qualify for if they join the army:
A one-time recruitment payment of up to 24,000 yuan, to cover four years of college tuition and loans (this has to be returned if the person is forced to leave the army before completing the service contract).
Priority in promotions and in getting admitted to military academies.
Anyone with a bachelor's degree or above and a good performance record can be promoted to the rank of officer directly, if they meet certain other criteria. An ordinary soldier may need a couple of years longer to get there.
There are no restrictions on things like going abroad after the service period, unless one deals with confidential work in the army.

The word confidential in the last paragraph could best be replaced by()

选项 A.concise.
B.professional.
C.creative.
D.secret.

答案D

解析词汇题。最后一段中“confidential”一词的意思为____。该词所在句意为“结束服役后在诸如出国等事情上没有任何限制,除非是其在部队从事____工作”。由此可以推测出confidential的意思是“保密性的”,与“secret”最为接近。
