Question
Translate this passage into Spanish.
I am very worried about social problems these days. In my opinion, each person in the world should have the same opportunities and I think that the most important thing is to help other people. Last year, my teachers organised lots of events to raise money. After my exams, I will work as a volunteer because I would like to support my local community.
Me preocupan mucho los problemas sociales hoy en día. En mi opinión, cada persona en el mundo debería tener las mismas oportunidades y creo lo más importante es ayudar a los demás. El año pasado mis profesores organizaron muchos eventos para recaudar fondos/dinero. Después de mis exámenes trabajaré como voluntario/a porque me gustaría apoyar a mi comunidad local.
Pay close attention to tenses when translating and expect to see a range of them. Use los demás to mean 'other people' instead of saying otras personas.
