In a city-construction museum, a guide holds the edge of a raised hinged model cover while a student records the two broad underground pipe routes with a pencil and clipboard. Roads and miniature buildings surround the cutaway. A ruler lies on the left record desk, a closed storage case sits below it, and a stool stands nearby. A flashlight rests at the model's left front corner. The rear parts rack displays one pipe elbow and a round washer. The guide wears a blank staff badge.
The ten targets appear in two rows of five. In legend order, the answer colors are red for the Model access cover, yellow for the Recording pencil, orange for the Clipboard, blue for the Pipe elbow sample, green for the Flashlight, cyan for the Ruler, purple for the Round washer, pink for the Staff badge, lime green for the Storage case, and golden ochre for the Stool. People, museum, miniature buildings and underground pipes remain black and white.
