HESI A2 Version 3 Grammar Questions
Question 1 of 5
Everyone thought that was the easiest test of the whole course.
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: The correct answer is 'B - Easiest.' In this sentence, the superlative form 'easiest' should be used to compare the test to others in the course. 'Most easiest' (Choice A) and 'Most easy' (Choice D) are incorrect as 'easiest' is already the superlative form of 'easy.' 'Easy' (Choice C) is a comparative form and does not accurately describe the test in comparison to others. Therefore, 'Easiest' is the most suitable choice in this context.
Question 2 of 5
Which of the following sentences is grammatically incorrect?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: In this question, we are looking for the sentence that is grammatically incorrect. The correct answer is B, 'He performed good on the test.' The word 'good' is an adjective, but in this context, we need an adverb to describe how he performed. The correct form is 'well,' which is an adverb describing the verb 'performed.' Therefore, the sentence should be 'He performed well on the test.' Choices A, C, and D are all grammatically correct sentences.
Question 3 of 5
Which word is used incorrectly in the sentence? It seem like the sun never shines on Saturday.
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: The correct answer is 'A: Seem.' The verb 'seems' is the correct form to agree with the subject 'It.' In this sentence, 'It' is the subject, and 'seems' is the appropriate verb choice to match in singular form. The statement is about a general observation that the sun does not shine on Saturdays, so 'seems' is used to convey this idea effectively.
Question 4 of 5
Be careful not to ........................................ the bottle while you carry it to the table.
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: The correct answer is B: 'Break.' The sentence is advising caution not to 'break' the bottle while carrying it to the table. 'Brak' (A), 'Brick' (C), and 'Brake' (D) are incorrect as they do not fit the context of the sentence. 'Brak' is a misspelling, 'Brick' is a different word, and 'Brake' refers to stopping or slowing down, which is not relevant in this context.
Question 5 of 5
Children depend on their parents for food, clothing, and shelter.
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: The preposition 'on' is used to indicate reliance or dependence. In this sentence, children depend 'on' their parents for food, clothing, and shelter, making choice B the correct answer. When using the verb 'depend,' it is followed by the preposition 'on' to show what or whom someone relies on.
