问题     Many students who participated in the2010 civil service exams (公务员考试) in China saw them as the "most difficult" , due to their emphasis on general knowledge.
    This year, the Chinese central government offices have opened 15, 000 posts but it’s not large enough to find a home for the one million people applying. According to a 2009 Washington Post report, US students are also giving government jobs a hard look. "The Partnership for Public Service" poll (民意调查) found that about 90% of US students are interested in federal (联邦政府的) jobs. Nearly 84% gave the security offered by federal jobs as a reason.
    The same goes for students in the UK. A 2008 Daily Mail report found that applications from college graduates for government civil service jobs have surged 33% over 2007.
    Besides providing financial security, civil service jobs usually offer other benefits, especially in Asia. In India, for example, the average annual income is about $720, but for a civil servant, it’s $8, 116—more than 10 times higher. Plus, civil servants get a one-month paid holiday every year, 20 days of medical leave and 20-day half-paid vacation.
Which of the following is closest in meaning to the underlined word "surged" ( in Para. 3) ?

选项 A、Improved.
B、Failed.
C、Increased.
D、Decreased.
