HESI A2 Vocabulary Quizlet Questions
Question 1 of 5
Place the four words in alphabetical order.
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: The correct order is: Assemble, assembly, assembled, assembling. First, we arrange "Assemble" before "Assembly" as it comes before nouns alphabetically. Then, we place "assembled" before "assembling" as it is the past tense verb. Lastly, "assembling" goes after "assembled" because it is the present participle form. Choice A is incorrect as it places "assembling" before "assembled." Choice B is incorrect as it places "assembly" before "assembling." Choice D is incorrect as it places "assembled" before "assembly."
Question 2 of 5
Select the meaning of the word 'intact' in the sentence: 'It is important that the bandage remain intact.'
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: The correct answer is B: Whole. In the context of the sentence, 'intact' means complete or undamaged. The bandage should remain whole to effectively protect the wound. Choice A (Dry) does not capture the full meaning of 'intact'. Choice C (Uncovered) is the opposite of intact. Choice D (Secure) refers more to the stability of the bandage rather than its completeness.
Question 3 of 5
Which word is NOT used correctly in the sentence? 'A sentence must always begin with a capital letter, but many people forget this rule.'
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: The correct answer is D. "Capitol" is used incorrectly in the sentence. The word should be "capital" which refers to uppercase letters. "Capitol" refers to a building where a legislative body meets. The other choices are used correctly: A: "Must always" is used correctly to emphasize the necessity of starting a sentence with a capital letter. B: "Simple" is used correctly as an adjective to describe the rule as straightforward. C: "Forget" is used correctly in the context of people not remembering the rule.
Question 4 of 5
Which sentence uses 'fast' as an adverb?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: The correct answer is A because 'fast' is used as an adverb to describe how the cars moved. Adverbs modify verbs, adjectives, or other adverbs. In this sentence, 'fast' modifies the verb 'moved'. Choice B uses 'fast' as an adjective to describe the clock, not an adverb. Choice C uses 'fast' as an adjective to describe the pitch, not an adverb. Choice D uses 'fast' as an adjective to describe the cars, not an adverb. Therefore, the sentence in choice A is the only one where 'fast' is correctly used as an adverb.
Question 5 of 5
Finishing isn't as important as answering correctly.
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: The correct answer is D, "Quickly." In this sentence, "quickly" is an adverb modifying the verb "answering." Adverbs describe how an action is done, making it the appropriate choice to describe the manner in which answering should be done. Choices A, B, and C do not function as adverbs and do not properly modify the verb in the sentence. A simply functions as an adjective, B is incomplete, and C is not a correct comparative form. Therefore, "Quickly" is the correct choice for this sentence.
