Translation
In Germany, a child in school has ...
- A the right to unlimited free time.
- B the freedom to choose all subjects.
- C a claim to school fees.
- D mandatory attendance. ✓ Correct answer
Explanation
Germany has compulsory schooling (Schulpflicht). This means students are required to attend classes; it is a legal duty. There is no general right to unlimited free time, no full freedom to choose all subjects (core curriculum is set), and there is typically no entitlement to receive school money.
Tips
- Look for keywords like Schulpflicht/Anwesenheitspflicht indicating a legal obligation to attend school. Eliminate options that sound absolute or unrealistic (e.g., unlimited free time). Remember that curricula are set by the federal states, so students don’t freely pick all subjects. istinguish between free public schooling and getting paid to attend.
