EDITORIAL LEARNING AID
Why is this answer correct?
For the “Leben in Deutschland” test, connect “with imprisonment of up to five years or a fine” with the meaning of the question. This is the answer marked as correct in the official key. “reduction of social benefits” is not part of the solution and points to a different issue. Learn the key term together with the complete correct answer instead of memorising only its letter.
