HESI A2 Version 5 Grammar Questions
Question 1 of 5
Which word is used incorrectly in the following sentence? Will you teaches me how to do origami?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: The word "teaches" in the sentence is used incorrectly. The correct verb form should be "teach" to agree with the subject "you." The corrected sentence should read: "Will you teach me how to do origami?" The verb "teach" is the appropriate form to indicate that someone is imparting knowledge or skills.
Question 2 of 5
Select the correct word for the blank in the following sentence: After completing the intense surgery, Dr. Capra needed a long ___.
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: The correct answer is 'break.' In this sentence, 'break' is the appropriate word to indicate that Dr. Capra needed time for rest or relaxation after the intense surgery. 'Brake' refers to a device for slowing or stopping a vehicle. 'Brink' means the edge or verge of something, and 'broke' is the past tense of 'break' and does not fit in the context of the sentence.
Question 3 of 5
Select the correct word for the blank in the following sentence. Sharon felt ___ about how her speech had gone.
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: In this context, the correct word to describe Sharon's feelings about her speech is 'good.' 'Good' is the appropriate adjective to use when referring to emotions or feelings, while 'well' is more commonly used to describe actions. 'Finely' is an adverb and does not fit the context of the sentence. 'Happily' refers more to the manner in which Sharon felt, rather than the quality of her feelings.
Question 4 of 5
Select the word or phrase that makes this sentence grammatically correct: The childā€™s fever was too high for him to lie comfortably in bed.
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: The correct answer is 'C: too.' In this sentence, 'too' is the appropriate word to indicate an excessive level of fever that prevented the child from lying comfortably in bed. The sentence structure requires 'too high' to convey that the fever was at a level that was beyond what was comfortable for the child.
Question 5 of 5
Select the correct word for the blank in the following sentence. After completing the intense surgery, Dr. Capra needed a long ___.
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: The correct answer is 'break.' In this context, 'break' is the correct word to use after intense surgery, as it refers to a period of rest or interruption. 'Brake' refers to a device for slowing or stopping a moving vehicle, 'brink' means the edge or margin of something, and 'broke' is the past tense of 'break.' Therefore, the most appropriate choice is 'break' to indicate the need for rest after completing the surgery.
