What is Maria's job?
What is Maria's job?
Philip initially believes that Maria is a flight attendant, but this is not the case. Female flight attendants are often called "stewardesses". Maria tells Philip that she is "actually" a nurse. The term "actually" means "in fact" or "in reality".
Someone "between jobs" (or in between jobs) isn't currently working. There is also an indication that the person held a job earlier: they might have been fired or quit. Maria explains to Philip that she is a "a nurse interning at Great Fields Hospital in Minnesota" which indicates that she is working as an intern and currently has a job.
Philip and Maria are going to meet in a "hotel lobby", however this is the hotel where Maria is staying, not working. Maria never says that she works in a hotel.
Maria says she is a "nurse", a type of medical professional who traditionally assists doctors. Although Philip at first believes that Maria is a flight attendant, Maria corrects him by explaining that she is in fact a "nurse". Maria also adds that she is "interning" (or doing an internship) at a hospital. An internship is a short educational stay (in this case at a hospital). Interns are typically recent university graduates or current university students.

1 rate: A 'rate' has several meanings in different contexts, however here it refers to the percentage, chance or probability that Kevin's surgery will succeed. The term 'success rate' is often used in the context of dangerous or difficult actions, for example: Cloning sheep has a success rate of 33%, but it is rising rapidly.
2 margin: 'The margin of error' describes the chance or possibility (often expressed in a percentage) that data or information is inaccurate. The term is often used in the context of surveys and polls. For example, a survey which shows that 78% of Americans like penguins, with a 3% margin of error, indicates that the true number of Americans who like penguins is between 75% and 81% (a 3% shift in both directions). Note that 'margin' has several meanings in different contexts.
3 blade: 'A blade' is a thin, flat surface, generally made of metal, used for cutting (or shaving). 'A blade' can also refer to a sword, but in the context of this dialogue is used to describe an instrument to be used during Kevin's surgery: The doctor will take a knife with an oscillating blade and cut a flap of tissue from Kevin's eye. Yummy!
4 nurse: A 'nurse' is a medical professional that traditionally assists doctors. In this dialogue, Dr. Loblaw calls for the nurse to come into the operating room with the surgical instruments in order to begin Kevin's surgery.

1 Health: This is correct. A "nurse" is a medical professional who traditionally assists doctors. "Health" is the condition of the human body or mind. Therefore the "health industry" consists of organizations, businesses and workers that provide care, medicine, medical expertise and morphine.
1 Retail: This is not the best choice here. Nurses do not work in retail. They do not sell anything (apart from the occasional kidney on the black market).
1 Entertainment: This is not the best choice here. There are lots of actors and actresses that play nurses on TV. However, real nurses do not work in the entertainment industry!
1 Hospitality: This is not the best choice here. Nurses work in hospitals, they provide hospitality to patients, yet they do not work in the hospitality industry. Apparently the "saving people's lives" (health) aspect is more important than the "providing food and drinks" (hospitality) aspect. It's a crazy world!
2 Entertainment: This is correct. "Actors" play roles in films, television and plays. "Entertainment" is something that amuses or diverts like a performance or show. The entertainment industry consists of organizations, businesses and workers that provide entertainment. For example: exotic dancers work in the entertainment industry.
2 Health: This is not the best choice here. Actors do not work in the health industry - even those who star in hit TV shows like "ER" (Emergency Room)!
2 Hospitality: This is not the best choice here.
2 Retail: This is not the best choice here.
3 Hospitality: A waiter is a male employee who serves food and drink to the patrons of a restaurant. The hospitality industry includes hotels, food service, casinos, and tourism. Note the equivalent term for women: "waitress".
3 Health: This is not the best choice here. Waiters do not work in the health industry.
3 Retail: This is not the best choice here.
3 Entertainment: This is not the best choice here.
4 Retail: A sales assistant serves customers in a shop or retail outlet. The term "retail" means the sale of goods or commodities in small quantities directly to consumers. The retail industry consists of shops, stores and business involved in this activity.
4 Health: This is not the best choice here.
4 Hospitality: This is not the best choice here.
4 Entertainment: This is not the best choice here. Even incompetent sales people, who are quite funny to watch, do not work in the entertainment industry!
