Answer to Question 1

A, C, F, G
Rationale: The client must avoid hidden sources of alcohol. Many liquid medications, such as cough
syrups, contain small amounts of alcohol that could trigger an alcohol-disulfiram reaction. Using
alcohol-based skin products such as aftershave or cologne; smelling alcohol-laden fumes; and eating
foods prepared with wine, brandy, beer, or spirits of any sort may also trigger reactions. The other
options do not relate to hidden sources of alcohol.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: D
Agoraphobia refers to the client's fear of open spaces. Option A: Mysophobia refers to fear of dirt or
germs. Option B: Claustrophobia refers to fear of closed spaces. Option C: Acrophobia refers to fear
of heights.

There can actually be a 25-hour time difference between certain locations in the world. The International Date Line passes between the islands of Samoa and American Samoa. It is not a straight line, but "zig-zags" around various island chains. Therefore, Samoa and nearby islands have one date, while American Samoa and nearby islands are one day behind. Daylight saving time is used in some islands, but not in others—further shifting the hours out of sync with natural time.
