Show the answer and the worked solution
Correct answer: B. Patient
Worked solution
- The relation is professional to the person served.
- A doctor serves a patient.
- A nurse is a colleague, not the person served.
Answer: Patient.
The idea
Identify who is on the receiving end of the professional's work. Colleagues and workplaces are the usual distractors.
Shortcut. A student is the person a teacher serves, so look for the person a doctor serves: 'Hospital' and 'Medicine' are not people, and a nurse works alongside the doctor.
Common trap. "Nurse" — the other person in the doctor's world, but a colleague, not the one being served.
