And the rate looks certain to【C1】______In 2000, about 94,000 people age 60 and older worked for the government. Last year, the number was 262,000.
The wave of retirement is helping to bring down the size of the federal【C2】______and—where funding is available—could afford agencies the chance to hire younger workers with【C3】______skills. The retirement of clerks could clear the way for experts in cyber security and information technology.

答案
F
解析
空格位于定冠词the之后,且句子缺少主语,由此推断应填入名词。由reshaping agencies可知,该句子主要讲“退休潮”对政府机构的影响,因此,此处的名词应该带有“退休潮”或者“人员退休”的意思,故选用departures。
