"The soldier likes taking risks when he is in the army."

Translation: החייל אוהב לקחת סיכונים כשהוא בצבא.

[houthakker72]

Why does the reading exercise require selection of both male and female soldiers, when the English is inflected only for a male soldier ?

(If we don't select החיילת אוהבת לקחת סיכונים כשהיא בצבא the exercise is marked as "incorrect")

[AlmogL]

It has to be a mistake.

[tngraham]

The answer to this exercise is incorrect. The English regards a masculine soldier, and the Hebrew, a feminine one.

[lmhaef]

Well, I read חייל and הוא, both of which are male. (But maybe they overlooked that the English is indeed gender specific and allow both genders as answers, which would be a mistake.)

[JulietteRe772119]

Does this sentence sounds natural : החייל אוהב לסכן כשהוא בצבא ?

[radagastthebrown]

No - לסכן = to puts in danger. It has to come with an object. You probably meant to use להסתכן = to take risks, to put oneself in danger.
