Why this is the answer
Cabinet-level positions are mainly the leaders of the executive departments, most of whom have the title Secretary, such as the Secretary of State or the Secretary of the Treasury. The head of the Department of Justice is called the Attorney General instead. The Vice President is also a member of the Cabinet. You only need to name two positions from the official list.
