HESI A2 Version 5 Grammar Questions

Question 1 of 5

Select the correct word for the blank in the following sentence. After completing the intense surgery, Dr. Capra needed a long ___.

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is 'break.' In this context, 'break' is the correct word to use after intense surgery, as it refers to a period of rest or interruption. 'Brake' refers to a device for slowing or stopping a moving vehicle, 'brink' means the edge or margin of something, and 'broke' is the past tense of 'break.' Therefore, the most appropriate choice is 'break' to indicate the need for rest after completing the surgery.

Question 2 of 5

Select the word or phrase that makes this sentence grammatically correct: ........... picking up groceries one of the things you are supposed to do?

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: The correct answer is 'A: is.' In this sentence, the subject is 'picking up groceries,' which is singular. Therefore, the verb 'is' should agree with the singular subject. The correct structure is 'Is picking up groceries one of the things you are supposed to do?'

Question 3 of 5

Select the correct word for the blank in the following sentence. Sharon felt _____ about how her speech had gone.

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: In this sentence, the word 'good' should be used to describe how Sharon felt about her speech. 'Good' is the correct term to convey a positive feeling in this context. When describing feelings, 'good' is the appropriate choice over 'well,' which is an adverb. 'Finely' is not commonly used in this context and does not fit the intended meaning. 'Happily' does not accurately describe Sharon's feelings about her speech performance; it refers more to an emotional state rather than a judgment of how the speech went.

Question 4 of 5

Which of the following sentences is grammatically incorrect?

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B because 'good' is an adjective, and in this context, 'well' should be used to describe how someone performed on a test. 'Well' is the adverb form of 'good' when describing performance or behavior. Choices A, C, and D all use adjectives or adverbs appropriately in relation to the verb 'performed.' In this context, 'well' is the correct adverb to describe the performance on a test, while 'good' is used to describe a noun or pronoun.

Question 5 of 5

Select the correct word for the blank in the following sentence: The members of the group ______ to be seated together.

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: In this sentence, 'want' is the correct choice. 'Want' is the correct verb form to use with 'members' (plural subject), as it agrees in plurality. 'Wanting' is a gerund form, 'wants' is singular, and 'waiting' does not fit the context of the sentence. Therefore, the correct word to use in the sentence is 'want.'
