HESI A2 Version 3 Grammar Questions
Question 1 of 5
Which phrase is used incorrectly in the sentence: 'The mailperson's job is to put the envelopes in every mailbox on the block'?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: The correct answer is 'C: Envelope's.' The sentence is discussing the task of putting envelopes in mailboxes, so the plural form 'envelopes' should be used instead of the possessive form 'envelope's.' This correction ensures grammatical accuracy and clarity in the sentence.
Question 2 of 5
Which word in the sentence is NOT grammatically correct? 'There are 3 things to remember for the test: Vocabulary, Grammar, and Spelling.'
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: The correct answer is 'C - There.' The original sentence mistakenly uses 'Their' instead of 'There.' 'Their' is a possessive pronoun, while 'There' is used to indicate a place or the existence of something. The corrected sentence should read, 'There are 3 things to remember for the test: Vocabulary, Grammar, and Spelling.'
Question 3 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.
Question 4 of 5
What is the correct part of the sentence that needs to be corrected? He went form being skinny to a very strong man.
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: The correct phrase in this sentence is 'He went from,' not 'He went form.' The sentence structure is comparing his past state of being skinny to his current state of being a very strong man. 'From' is used to indicate the starting point of the change. Therefore, the correct answer is 'Went form.'
Question 5 of 5
Which phrase is used incorrectly in the sentence? The patient asked the patient to choose ate items from the menu that are his favorites.
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: The original question contained a grammatical error by using 'ate' instead of 'eight.' The correct phrase should be 'eight items' when referring to the number of items. The nurse is instructing the patient to select items from the menu, making 'choose' the appropriate verb in this context. 'His favorites' is the correct possessive form to indicate the items are the patient's preferences. Choice D, 'that are,' is not incorrect in the context of the sentence, making 'A' the error-free choice.
