HESI A2 Version 4 Grammar Questions

Question 1 of 5

The child cried, 'I want to do it-----------------.'

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: In this sentence, the pronoun that should follow 'do it' is reflexive, indicating the action is done by the subject to the subject. 'Myself' is the correct reflexive pronoun here. 'Mine' is a possessive pronoun, 'Me' is incorrect as it should be in its reflexive form, and 'Me self' is not a valid pronoun construction.

Question 2 of 5

Which word best fits in the following sentence? "________ I want to ensure I can go to the movies later, I am going to do my homework now."

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: The correct answer is 'A: Because.' This choice is the most suitable conjunction to introduce the reason for doing homework now, which is wanting to go to the movies later. The word 'Because' establishes a clear cause-and-effect relationship between the two parts of the sentence, making it coherent and logical. The use of 'Because' indicates that the action of doing homework now is driven by the desire to go to the movies later, aligning with the intended meaning of the sentence.

Question 3 of 5

The symptoms did not ______ an emergency room visit.

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is 'Warrant.' In this context, 'warrant' means justified or necessitated. The sentence implies that the symptoms did not require or justify an emergency room visit. 'Desired' (Choice A) means wanted or wished for, which is not appropriate here. 'Guarantee' (Choice C) means assured or certain, which does not fit the context either. 'Should have been' (Choice D) is grammatically incorrect in this structure.

Question 4 of 5

Select the best word for the blank in the following sentence: The town _________ will meet next Tuesday, and lunch will be served.

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: In this sentence, the blank should be filled with a noun that refers to a group of officials or a governing body, which is 'Council'. The sentence indicates a formal meeting of town officials rather than an individual providing advice or guidance, eliminating choices A, B, and C. Therefore, the correct answer is 'Council'.

Question 5 of 5

The nursing aide put the band-aid on the wound to aid the nurse.

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: In the sentence 'The nursing aide put the band-aid on the wound to aid the nurse,' 'aide' refers to a nursing assistant, 'aid' refers to a bandage, and 'aid' is used as a verb meaning to help. Therefore, the correct sequence of words is 'Aide, aid, aid,' making choice B the correct answer. It is essential to use the correct words in context to convey the intended meaning accurately. 'Aide' as a noun denotes the nursing assistant, 'aid' as a noun refers to the bandage, and 'aid' as a verb means to assist or help, aligning with the actions in the sentence.
