HESI A2 Version 3 Grammar Questions

Question 1 of 5

Which word is used incorrectly? "The procedure for training student nurses were thoroughly outlined."

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: The correct answer is A. The subject 'procedure' is singular, so the verb 'were' should be 'was' to match the singular subject. Therefore, the correct sentence should be: 'Which procedure for giving injections was explained thoroughly to the student nurses.' The other words in the sentence are used correctly.

Question 2 of 5

Which answer correctly completes the sentence? It is required that he ________ the payment immediately.

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: In this sentence, 'he' is the subject of the verb. When using 'required that' or similar constructions, the base form of the verb should follow. Therefore, the correct form is 'Send,' making it the appropriate choice. The base form of the verb is used after phrases like 'required that' to indicate a necessary action or obligation. 'Sent' is the past tense, 'sends' is the third-person singular present tense, and 'sended' is not a correct form of the verb in this context.

Question 3 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 4 of 5

Be careful not to............... the bottle while you carry it to the table.

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B: 'Break.' In this sentence, the word 'break' is the correct choice. 'Break' means to separate into pieces as a result of a blow, shock, or strain. The sentence is advising caution not to cause the bottle to break while carrying it to the table.

Question 5 of 5

After throwing their sleeping bags into the backseat of their car, they...................more than 400 miles to reach their destination.

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: In this sentence, the correct form is 'drove' as it is the simple past tense of the verb 'drive.' The action of driving more than 400 miles occurred after they threw their sleeping bags into the backseat. 'Driving' (choice A) is in the present participle form and does not fit the context. 'Having driven' (choice B) is in the present perfect tense, which is not suitable based on the sequence of events. 'Had driven' (choice D) is incorrect due to the incorrect use of 'had' with the past tense form of the verb. Therefore, the correct answer is 'C: Drove.'
