- aPolice service.Policejní služba.Correct answer
- bHairdressing services.Kadeřnické služby.
- cTour guide services.Průvodcovské služby.
- dPrivate detective services.Služby soukromého detektiva.
Why?
A trade is a business that a person runs on their own account in order to make a profit. A police officer does not run a business: he or she is in a service relationship with the state, and the work is not a trade. Hairdressing, tour guide services and private detective services are all trades.
