- aare Catholic.katholisch ist.
- bare well qualified.gut ausgebildet ist.Correct answer
- care a woman.eine Frau ist.
- dare a member of a political party.Mitglied einer Partei ist.
Why?
In Germany, what counts most for a well-paid job is training, knowledge and experience. Religion or gender must not play a role in hiring – the General Equal Treatment Act (Allgemeines Gleichbehandlungsgesetz) forbids this. And you do not need to be a party member to get a good job either.
