Full transcript
Thanks for coming in, Mrs. Almeida. How have you been feeling since our last session on Thursday two weeks ago, especially with the sleep issues we discussed?
Um pouco melhor, doutora. Mas ainda acordo por volta das três da manhã e não consigo voltar a dormir com facilidade.
Have you noticed any changes in your appetite or energy levels, or is work still causing you significant stress day to day?
O apetite está normal, mas o trabalho continua muito estressante. Tenho tido dores de cabeça quase todos os dias por causa da tensão.
If your GP agrees, I can refer you to a psychologist under Medicare's Better Access initiative, which may give you additional structured support.
Isso ajudaria bastante. Só me preocupa se vou conseguir marcar horário rápido, porque as filas costumam ser longas.
This means you could receive up to ten subsidised sessions this year, though it won't cover everything, so we'll also focus on coping strategies here.
Dez sessões parece bom. Vou perguntar ao meu médico de família na próxima consulta, que é semana que vem.
In the meantime, let's keep practising the breathing exercises daily, even if you only manage five minutes before bed each night.
Vou tentar fazer isso todas as noites. Às vezes esqueço, mas vou colocar um lembrete no celular.
Let's book your next appointment for Thursday the 12th at Bankstown Community Health Centre, same time as today, at four o'clock.
Muito obrigada, doutora. Vejo a senhora na quinta-feira, dia doze, às quatro horas então.
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.
- MedicareManter a palavra em inglês, 'Medicare', pois é um nome próprio de um sistema específico australiano sem equivalente direto.
Practise it
Reading a transcript is not interpreting. The practice room 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. Your first full dialogue is marked free.
