✅ Answer Key: Part A Only

1. elementary school teacher
2. bloating
3. lower left side
4. constant
5. dairy product(s)
6. Loperamide
7. gallbladder
8. swelling
9. three kilo(s)
10. anxiety level(s)

Quick Tips (3 Common Pitfalls)

• Location specificity matters
  “left side” is not enough. The doctor specifies lower left side.
• Plural recognition
  “three kilos” is acceptable even though “three kilo” is heard.
• Medical procedures vs. organs
  “Gallbladder” is required, not the general idea of a past surgery.
