Maybe a better idea is skip text like "And maybe using hidden instructions, an idea of what to expect could be utilized. Such as, "Read the text below. Indicators have been used to denote fill-in-the blanks. Enter your responses in the blanks after the selection.""
Ensure elements with multiple labels are rendered appropriately
