HESI A2 Version 3 Grammar Questions
Question 1 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 2 of 5
The men and women of the graduating class.........................
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: The correct answer is C: 'Threw.' The sentence should read, 'The men and women of the graduating class threw...'. 'Threw' is the past tense of the verb 'throw,' which correctly matches the subject 'men and women of the graduating class' in this context. The verb 'threw' indicates that the men and women of the graduating class performed the action of throwing, making it the most suitable choice in this sentence.
Question 3 of 5
What is the correct verb to complete the sentence? Economics __________ my least favorite subject in school.
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: The correct answer is A: 'Is.' In this sentence, 'Economics' is a singular subject, so the correct verb to use is 'is' to match the singular form. Therefore, the sentence should read: 'Economics is my least favorite subject at school.' The verb 'been' (B) is incorrect as it is the past participle of 'be' and does not fit the sentence structure. 'Am' (C) and 'Are' (D) are also incorrect as they are not the appropriate verb forms to match the singular subject 'Economics.'
Question 4 of 5
Which word is NOT USED CORRECTLY in the sentence: They're going to the mall to pick up their uniforms for their coach?
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: The word 'there' in the sentence is used incorrectly. 'There' should be 'their' to indicate possession. 'There' refers to a place or location, while 'their' shows ownership. In this sentence, 'their' is correctly used to indicate that the uniforms belong to the individuals. Therefore, 'There' is the word that is not used correctly in the sentence.
Question 5 of 5
Select the best word for the blank in the following sentence: I will ___ that chart to the patientā€™s room later today.
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: The correct answer is 'B: Take.' In this context, 'take' is the most appropriate choice as it indicates moving something to another location. The sentence implies that the person will transfer the chart to the patientā€™s room, which aligns with the meaning of 'take' when referring to moving objects from one place to another.
