Answer
- D They work voluntarily and unpaid in clubs and associations.
Explanation
Voluntary (ehrenamtlich) means freely and without pay, for example in a sports club, the volunteer fire brigade, neighborhood help or as an election volunteer. Around 30 million people in Germany are involved in this way. Soldiers and hospital employees, by contrast, are paid for their work.
