TEAS Reading Questions

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: The serving team can score a point in volleyball because only the serving team can win a point by successfully serving the ball over the net and making it land in the opponent's court or forcing an error. The receiving team cannot score a point directly from the serve. Choice A is incorrect because the receiving team does not have the opportunity to score a point while receiving the serve. Choice C is incorrect because only one team can earn a point at a time. Choice D is incorrect because at least one of the teams will score a point during a rally.

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B: Expressed. In the context of replacing a word without altering the sentence's intent, "expressed" is the most suitable choice as it maintains the meaning of conveying a message without changing the tone or emphasis. Shouted, Persuaded, and Whispered would significantly alter the intent of the sentence as they imply different levels of communication and emotion. Shouted conveys a loud and aggressive tone, Persuaded implies influencing someone's decision, and Whispered suggests a secretive or confidential communication. Overall, "Expressed" aligns best with the original sentence's intention of conveying a message.

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: The correct answer is D because Raul is seeking information about who built the Great Pyramids. "Who Built the Great Pyramids?" directly addresses his query, making it the best choice. Choice A discusses Giza, not specifically the builders. Choice B focuses on Zahi Hawass, not the pyramid builders. Choice C talks about hieroglyphics, which is unrelated to Raul's question.

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B: Chapter 9. Clothilde should look for more information in Chapter 9 because it is most likely to contain relevant details based on the context of the question. To determine this, she should first review the content of each chapter to identify the one that aligns best with the topic she needs information on. Chapters 7, 10, and 12 can be ruled out by analyzing their content and relevance to the question. Chapter 9 is the most appropriate choice as it is positioned between Chapters 7 and 10, making it a logical place to find more detailed information.

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: The correct answer is D because the italics are used to emphasize words in the sentence, indicating that those words are titles of books that Angela has completed. The italics are not used to indicate a full-length published book (A), a work of classic literature (B), or recommended summer reading (C). In this context, the purpose of the italics is specific to highlighting titles of books completed by Angela, making option D the correct choice.
