Order of events

70.9% of these information points were left out or changed (64 points in Bangla practice).

Example from our dialogue Managing Acute Diarrhoea After Travel · segment 7

I'd like to send a stool sample to the lab for testing, and in the meantime please drink oral rehydration solution instead of plain water.

Detail to keep: Drink oral rehydration solution in the meantime

Model interpretation: আমি পরীক্ষার জন্য আপনার পায়খানার একটি নমুনা ল্যাবে পাঠাতে চাই। আর এর মধ্যে শুধু পানির বদলে খাবার স্যালাইন পান করুন।

Note from the model answer: Oral rehydration solution means drinking solution, not intravenous saline.

How not to miss it: Keep before, after, until and then, and give the steps in the order the speaker gave them.

Negatives

55.9% of these information points were left out or changed (80 points in Bangla practice).

Example from our dialogue Managing Acute Diarrhoea After Travel · segment 9

Not yet — please avoid anti-diarrhoeal tablets like Imodium until we rule out infection, since a fever or blood in your stool means they shouldn't be used.

Detail to keep: Blood in stool is a reason not to use them

Model interpretation: এখনই নয়—সংক্রমণ নেই বলে নিশ্চিত না হওয়া পর্যন্ত ইমোডিয়ামের মতো ডায়রিয়া বন্ধ করার ট্যাবলেট খাবেন না, কারণ জ্বর থাকলে বা পায়খানায় রক্ত গেলে এসব ওষুধ খাওয়া উচিত নয়।

Note from the model answer: Fever or blood is sufficient; do not change 'or' to 'and'.

How not to miss it: Check the polarity before you speak. One missed not or no reverses the message.

Numbers and quantities

55.7% of these information points were left out or changed (63 points in Bangla practice).

Example from our dialogue Managing Acute Diarrhoea After Travel · segment 6

হ্যাঁ, দুই সপ্তাহ আগে বালিতে ছুটিতে গিয়েছিলাম। সেখানে একবার হোটেলের কলের পানি খেয়ে ফেলেছিলাম, হয়তো সেখান থেকেই হয়েছে।

Detail to keep: Drank hotel tap water once

Model interpretation: Yes, I went to Bali on holiday two weeks ago. While I was there, I drank the hotel's tap water on one occasion; perhaps that's what caused it.

Note from the model answer: The water is a possible cause, not a confirmed cause.

How not to miss it: Write the figure down the moment you hear it and say it back with its unit: two sprays, 118 over 76, forty members.

Organisations and services

55.4% of these information points were left out or changed (29 points in Bangla practice).

Example from our dialogue Managing Acute Diarrhoea After Travel · segment 11

Yes, take this referral form to the pathology collection centre at Liverpool Hospital; if you go before midday, results should be ready within two business days.

Detail to keep: Confirms Liverpool Hospital

Model interpretation: হ্যাঁ, এই রেফারেল ফর্মটি লিভারপুল হাসপাতালের প্যাথলজি নমুনা সংগ্রহ কেন্দ্রে নিয়ে যান। দুপুর বারোটার আগে গেলে দুই কর্মদিবসের মধ্যে ফলাফল পাওয়া যাওয়ার কথা।

Note from the model answer: Two business days is not two calendar days, and results are expected rather than guaranteed.

How not to miss it: Say the organisation's name as it is (Centrelink, Fair Work Ombudsman, myGov) instead of a vague word like the office or the government.

Dates and times

54.2% of these information points were left out or changed (109 points in Bangla practice).

Example from our dialogue Managing Acute Diarrhoea After Travel · segment 5

Have you travelled anywhere recently, tried any new foods, or drunk untreated tap water, especially overseas in the past fortnight?

Detail to keep: Past fortnight

Model interpretation: সম্প্রতি কোথাও বেড়াতে গিয়েছেন, নতুন কোনো খাবার খেয়েছেন বা পরিশোধন না করা কলের পানি পান করেছেন কি—বিশেষ করে গত দুই সপ্তাহে বিদেশে থাকাকালীন?

Note from the model answer: A fortnight means two weeks, and untreated tap water must remain specific.

How not to miss it: Note day, date and time as one block and keep them as said: next Monday stays next Monday, in two weeks is not soon.
