TEAS Reading Practice Test

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: The correct answer is D. By locating texts in the library related to World War II in America and looking for references to internment camps in the index, the student can find reliable and in-depth resources specifically focused on Japanese-American internment camps during World War II. This method ensures that the information gathered is relevant and accurate, as it is derived from scholarly sources. Choice A is not the best advice as conducting a broad internet search may yield a mix of credible and unreliable sources, making it difficult for the student to discern accurate information. Choice B suggests consulting an American history textbook, which may provide general information but may not delve deeply into the specific topic of Japanese-American internment camps. Choice C, finding websites about Japanese-American culture encompassing various aspects such as fashion and politics, is not the most helpful advice as the student's research focus is on internment camps during World War II, which may not be adequately covered in such websites.

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: Rationale: The correct answer is A: Auspices. 'Patronage' in this context refers to support or sponsorship. Auspices also mean support or protection. Aberration means deviation, Acerbic means bitter, and Adulation means excessive admiration. Auspices is the best synonym as it aligns closely with the context of providing support without condescension.

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: The correct answer is C because the author's tone being informative and exhibiting interest in the subject can be inferred from the content itself without any emotional bias. The author presents facts and details without trying to persuade or evoke emotions, making it more likely that the tone is informative and interested. Choice A is incorrect because there is no clear indication of a call to action in the text. Choice B is incorrect as there is no explicit mention of excitement or personal narrative in the tone. Choice D is incorrect as there is no mention of anger or somberness in the author's tone.

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: The correct answer is D because the final comment indicates that the speaker plans to continue looking for Mr. Hyde. The phrase "I should be Mr. Seek" implies a determination to search for Hyde. The speaker is not considering changing names (A), experiencing a sudden determination (B), or realizing a mistake in identifying the person (C).

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: The correct answer is A: Plebeian. In the passage, the term 'working man' refers to an individual who exhibits qualities such as patience, perseverance, sense, and support. These qualities are typically associated with the working class or plebeians, who are known for their hard work and dedication. Rationale: 1. The passage emphasizes the qualities of the 'working man,' which align with the characteristics of the working class or plebeians. 2. Plebeians are commonly identified by their patience, perseverance, and support for their endeavors. 3. Viscount and Entrepreneur are not synonymous with the working class and do not reflect the qualities mentioned in the passage. 4. Bourgeois typically refers to the middle class, which may not fully capture the essence of the 'working man' described in the passage. Summary: The correct answer is A (Plebeian) because it best reflects the qualities and characteristics associated with the 'working man' described in the passage,
