TEAS English Practice Test Questions
Question 1 of 5
Select the word from the following sentence that has more than one meaning: 'Javier was overjoyed when he finally finished his application for college.'
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: The correct answer is C: Application. In the sentence, 'application' has multiple meanings such as a formal request for something or a computer program. This makes it the word with more than one meaning. A: Overjoyed - Only has one meaning, extreme happiness. B: Finally - Only has one meaning, after a long time or at last. D: College - Has a single meaning, an educational institution.
Question 2 of 5
Which of the following is a run-on sentence?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: The correct answer is B because it contains two independent clauses joined by a semicolon without a conjunction or appropriate punctuation. This creates a run-on sentence. The other choices have appropriate punctuation or conjunctions to separate the clauses, making them grammatically correct.
Question 3 of 5
Identify the type of clause in the sentence: 'I ate, and he drank.'
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: The correct answer is A: Coordinate clause. In the sentence, 'I ate, and he drank,' both 'I ate' and 'he drank' are independent clauses joined by the coordinating conjunction 'and'. A coordinate clause is a clause that can stand alone as a complete sentence. In this case, both clauses can function independently, making them coordinate clauses. Summary: - Choice B (Dependent clause) is incorrect because the clauses in the sentence are independent, not dependent. - Choice C (Subordinate clause) is incorrect because the clauses are not related in a hierarchical structure. - Choice D (Independent clause) is incorrect because while the clauses are independent, the question asks for the specific type of independent clause, which is a coordinate clause in this case.
Question 4 of 5
Which word(s) in the following sentence should be capitalized? 'She asked, Do you like Indian food?'
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: The correct answer is D because proper nouns such as 'She' and 'Indian' should be capitalized. Since 'Do' is part of the direct speech, it should also be capitalized. Choice A is incorrect because 'do' should be capitalized. Choice B is incorrect because 'She' should be capitalized. Choice C is incorrect because 'Indian' should be capitalized. Therefore, the correct choice is D as it includes all the words that should be capitalized in the sentence.
Question 5 of 5
Which pronoun would not work in the following sentence? 'I asked a colleague to bring it to you.'
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: The correct answer is D: whose. In the sentence, "I asked a colleague to bring it to you," the pronoun "whose" is not appropriate because it is used to indicate possession or ownership, while in this context, the pronoun needs to refer to the object being brought. The pronouns A, B, and C (my, our, your) can all correctly refer to the object in the sentence. Therefore, the pronoun "whose" does not work in this sentence.
