West Point is the four-year military school in New York State that educates future Army officers. The students are called cadets. They do not have to pay for their education. All student costs are paid by the United States Army. But the students do have to agree to serve on active duty in the Army for at least five years after they graduate. It is difficult to become a student at West Point. Only about 15 percent of students who apply are accepted. They must be nominated to the academy, usually by a federal or state lawmaker. Nominees also must satisfy the entrance requirements. These include excellent physical condition and high marks in school. West Point also accepts a limited number of international students nominated by their home government. They also must satisfy the physical and educational requirements. After graduation they return to their home countries to serve in their country's army.
西点一所是位于纽约,为部队培养未来军事人员的四年制军事学校。该校的学生被称作"警官学员"。他们不用交学费。所有学生的开销都由美国军方承担。但是学员们不得不在他们毕业后,至少在部队服现役5年。成为西点的学生是件非常不易的事情。只有大约15%的学生会被选中。他们必须由中学,通常是联邦或各州的立法者提名。提名者同样必须满足入学条件。其中包括了出色的体质条件和在校期间良好的成绩。西点也接受极少数量的外国学生,他们也需要自己国家政府的提名。毕业后这些外国学生会返回自己的国家并在军队中服役。 ——译文来自: 好爱棋柯鱼
