Answer: Option A

Explanation:

Option B is not a positive step to take to find out what she her culture believes and relate it to her perception. What If it has nothing to do with her culture, then what ever I conclude with will be wrong.

Option C refers to her age. Its not a good move to determine if she is above a particular age to then place classification on what might be wrong to. Relating to the passage above, their is no prior case relating to age, so this is not an option relating to the step to take.

Option D, to determine someone cursed her would be a difficult question to ask and if not thoughtful with it, can cause mid interpretation of the scenario and wrong ideas will be brought to the scenario.

Option A is the best to deal with situations like this, such as Whether she only thinks she hears spirits or actually hears them. Its better to determine this things. in fact this is the first step to verify if truly she hears them or it might be something different before seeking medical advice for her.
