Full transcript

SEGMENT 1 · ENGLISH · 23 WORDS
Plastic Surgeon

Thanks for coming in, Mr Han. Let's take a look at how your hand is healing after the reconstruction surgery two weeks ago.

SEGMENT 2 · KOREAN · 18 WORDS
Patient

네, 선생님. 사실 어제부터 손가락 끝이 좀 붓고 욱신거려서 걱정이 됐어요.

SEGMENT 3 · ENGLISH · 21 WORDS
Plastic Surgeon

That's helpful to know. Have you noticed any redness spreading, discharge from the wound, or a fever above thirty-eight degrees?

SEGMENT 4 · KOREAN · 24 WORDS
Patient

빨갛게 되는 건 못 봤는데, 어젯밤에 체온을 재보니까 삼십칠도 오였어요. 진물은 조금 나왔어요.

SEGMENT 5 · ENGLISH · 24 WORDS
Plastic Surgeon

A slight fever and some discharge aren't unusual this early, but if the wound doesn't close within ten days, we may need minor debridement.

SEGMENT 6 · KOREAN · 14 WORDS
Patient

그렇군요. 그럼 흉터는 나중에 실리콘 시트 같은 걸로 관리하면 좋아지나요?

SEGMENT 7 · ENGLISH · 26 WORDS
Plastic Surgeon

Yes, silicone sheets usually help once the wound has fully closed. I'd like to see you again at Nepean Hospital's outpatient clinic in two weeks.

SEGMENT 8 · KOREAN · 15 WORDS
Patient

알겠습니다. 그런데 제가 일 때문에 운전을 해야 하는데, 언제부터 다시 운전해도 괜찮을까요?

SEGMENT 9 · ENGLISH · 25 WORDS
Plastic Surgeon

You shouldn't drive until you're pain-free and have full grip strength, usually around six weeks. Avoid lifting anything heavier than two kilograms until then.

SEGMENT 10 · KOREAN · 19 WORDS
Patient

네, 조심할게요. 혹시 이번 진료비는 메디케어로 다 처리되나요, 아니면 따로 돈을 내야 하나요?

SEGMENT 11 · ENGLISH · 24 WORDS
Plastic Surgeon

Since this was reconstructive, not cosmetic, Medicare should cover the hospital visit, though you might have a small out-of-pocket fee for the dressing.

SEGMENT 12 · KOREAN · 14 WORDS
Patient

다행이네요. 그럼 이 주 후에 다시 뵐게요. 감사합니다, 선생님.

Terms in this dialogue that cost marks

CCL is marked on information transferred. These Australian terms have no direct word in most test languages — get one wrong and the segment's information is gone.

Practise it

Reading a transcript is not interpreting. The free daily dialogue on this site plays each segment at native speed, records you, and marks the information you transferred against the same categories examiners use — omissions, distortions, insertions — so you know where the marks went.
