HESI A2 Version 3 Grammar Questions

Question 1 of 5

Which word is NOT GRAMMATICALLY CORRECT?

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: The word 'library' is grammatically incorrect in this context. It should be 'librarian' instead of 'library.' 'Library' refers to a place, while 'librarian' refers to a person who works in a library. The other options ('An,' 'As,' 'During') are all grammatically correct words.

Question 2 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 3 of 5

Which answer correctly completes the sentence? As we celebrated the start of the evening festivities, our glasses.......................and a toast was made by our host.

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: The correct phrase is 'our glasses were raised,' indicating that the glasses were lifted or elevated in a celebratory manner. 'Were risen' is incorrect because 'risen' is the past participle of 'rise,' not 'raise.' 'Were rose' is grammatically incorrect as 'rose' is the past tense of 'rise,' not 'raise.' 'Arose' is also incorrect as it means to originate or occur, which does not fit the context of raising glasses in a toast.

Question 4 of 5

In an address, which part is considered a salutation?

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: A salutation in an address is a title used before a person's name to show respect or formality. In this case, 'Mr.' is the salutation as it precedes a person's name. The other options are not salutations but rather parts of an address (option A), an area code (option B), or a personal name (option C). Therefore, the correct answer is 'D: Mr.' as it is the salutation in the given choices.

Question 5 of 5

Which word in the following sentence is grammatically incorrect? Dr. Jones, whom all the patients like, plays the piano well.

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: The correct answer is 'A: Whom'. In formal English, 'whom' is used as an object pronoun. In the given sentence, 'whom' should be used instead of 'who' as it is referring to the object of the verb 'like'. Therefore, 'whom' is the grammatically correct choice.
