Practice TEAS Test Reading

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: The correct answer is C because the announcement states that the schedule was designed to accommodate the "varying arrival times of faculty members from different departments." This implies that the university considered the timings of faculty members from each department individually, not just based on the department with the most faculty members (A), majority entry times (B), or different times for each department to reduce crowding (D). Choice C aligns best with the information provided in the announcement, making it the most reasonable assumption.

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B: Reveler Cinema. As Thomas and his sister have to watch the film after 10 p.m., Reveler Cinema is the best option because it likely offers late-night showings. Twin Theatres, Big Screen 14, and Best Seat in The House may not have showtimes after 10 p.m. Therefore, Reveler Cinema is the most suitable choice for accommodating their schedule change.

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B: REVERT. The word "revert" means to return to a previous state or condition. This matches the theme of the question which asks for a "new word," implying a change or return to something different. A: REVEST is not a commonly used word and does not fit the context of the question. C: REVIEW is a common word but does not convey the idea of something new. D: REVERSE means to go in the opposite direction, which does not align with the concept of introducing something new.

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: The correct answer is C: Thursday. In most areas, watering restrictions are in place based on odd or even house numbers. Since the Morgan family lives at 5487 South Elm Street, their house number is odd. Therefore, they will be allowed to water their lawn on Thursday. Explanation for incorrect choices: A: Tuesday - Incorrect because odd-numbered houses typically water on different days than even-numbered houses. B: Wednesday - Incorrect because odd-numbered houses usually water on different days than even-numbered houses. D: Saturday - Incorrect because odd-numbered houses are usually assigned watering days earlier in the week, not at the end.

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: The correct answer is A because the passage does not mention that promoters of dietary supplements can make any claims supported by research. This statement is not supported in the passage and can be considered a generalization. The other choices are details mentioned in the passage: B talks about GMP requirements, C discusses FDA regulation, and D emphasizes the importance of consumer research. Therefore, A is the only statement that is not directly supported by the passage.
