HESI A2 Version 3 Grammar Questions

Question 1 of 5

Which of the following sentences is grammatically correct?

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: The correct answer is D. This sentence is grammatically correct as it uses the conjunction 'because' to connect two clauses properly. 'Because the patient could walk' is a dependent clause, and 'he was allowed to leave his room' is an independent clause. Option A is incorrect because it lacks a conjunction to connect the two subjects correctly. Option B is a sentence fragment without a main clause. Option C is incorrect due to the misuse of commas to separate the subjects; it should use 'and' to list the subjects properly. Therefore, Option D is the only grammatically correct sentence among the choices.

Question 2 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 3 of 5

Which sentence uses 'fast' as an adverb?

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: In this question, 'fast' is used as an adverb to describe how the cars moved on the overpass. An adverb modifies a verb, indicating the speed or manner of an action. Choice A correctly uses 'fast' to modify the verb 'moved,' making it the sentence where 'fast' is used as an adverb. The other choices use 'fast' as an adjective to describe the cars (choice D), a clock (choice B), or a pitch (choice C), which does not demonstrate its use as an adverb.

Question 4 of 5

Which sentence is grammatically correct?

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: The correct answer is C: 'Gosh, I could have had a V-8!' This sentence is grammatically correct as it uses the correct structure for expressing a missed opportunity in the past. 'Could have' is the correct modal verb construction to express regret for not choosing a V-8. Choices A, B, and D contain grammatical errors or use informal language that is not suitable for expressing a past regretful situation. Choice A uses the incorrect verb form 'be ordering,' choice B uses the colloquial contraction 'coulda,' and choice D uses 'should have' which does not fit the context of expressing a past missed opportunity.

Question 5 of 5

Select the word or phrase in the sentence that is not used correctly: The data confirms that the patient is suffering from extreme anxiety, and a tranquilizing medication is immediately required.

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: The word 'confirms' is not used correctly in the sentence. 'Confirms' should be followed by 'that' to link the subject 'data' with the verb 'confirms.' The corrected sentence should read: 'The data confirms that the patient is suffering from extreme anxiety, and a tranquilizing medication is immediately required.' This change ensures proper grammar and sentence structure.
