    • Be a raider

    • Be the strongest

    Correct Answer
    A. Be a raider
    Explanation
    A young Viking might go out on a trading voyage to be a raider. Raiding was a common activity for Vikings, as they would often attack and plunder other communities to acquire wealth and resources. Trading voyages provided an opportunity for Vikings to explore new lands, encounter potential targets for raiding, and acquire goods through trade or raiding. Therefore, going on a trading voyage could serve as a means for a young Viking to fulfill their desire to be a raider.

    • Played with wolfs

    Correct Answer
    A. Played on skis
    Explanation
    The given correct answer is "Played on skis." This answer is suggested because the question mentions that they played on skates in winter, indicating a winter sport or activity. Since skating and skiing are both popular winter activities, it is reasonable to assume that they played on skis. The other options, such as having snowball fights or playing with wolves, are not directly related to the winter sport mentioned in the question.
