ATI TEAS English Practice Test Questions

Question 1 of 5

The patient was experiencing intraocular pressure. Based on the analysis of word parts, what is the meaning of 'intraocular' as used in the sentence above?

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: The correct answer is A: Within the eyes. "Intra-" means within or inside, and "ocular" refers to the eyes. Therefore, "intraocular" means within the eyes. The other choices are incorrect because they do not accurately describe the location of the pressure in relation to the eyes. "Between the eyes," "above the eyes," and "below the eyes" do not convey the idea of the pressure being inside the eyes, as "intraocular" does.

Question 2 of 5

The plump old white cat basked in the warm sunlight. Which of the following options correctly punctuates the above?

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: The correct answer is A: "The plump, old, white cat basked in the warm sunlight." This option correctly uses commas to separate the adjectives "plump," "old," and "white" to provide clear and precise information about the cat. Commas are used to separate coordinate adjectives that equally describe the noun. Option B: "The plump, old, white, cat basked in the warm sunlight." This option incorrectly places a comma after "white" and before "cat," which disrupts the flow and does not follow standard punctuation rules for coordinating adjectives. Option C: "The plump, old white cat basked in the warm sunlight." This option lacks commas between the adjectives, making it unclear whether "old" and "white" are separate descriptors or part of a single description. Option D: "The plump old white cat, basked in the warm sunlight." This option incorrectly places a comma after "cat

Question 3 of 5

Choose the correct verb form: 'Neither of the boys ____ interested in the game.'

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: The correct answer is A: is. In this sentence, "Neither" is a singular pronoun, so it should be followed by a singular verb form. "Is" is the correct singular form of the verb "to be" for the pronoun "Neither." Choices B, C, and D are incorrect because they all represent plural verb forms, which do not agree with the singular subject "Neither." The verb "are" in choice B is plural, "were" in choice C is past tense and does not agree with the present tense of the sentence, and "be" in choice D is an infinitive form and does not match the subject-verb agreement required in this sentence.

Question 4 of 5

Which of the following is the plural form of the word 'chief'?

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: The correct answer is A: chiefs. The plural of 'chief' follows the standard English pluralization rule by adding an -s to form the plural. 'Chieves' (B), 'chievs' (C), and 'chiefes' (D) are incorrect as they do not follow this rule and are not recognized plural forms in English.

Question 5 of 5

Select the correct verbs to complete the following sentences: Where _________ everyone? What ___________ they doing?

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B: is, are. In the first sentence "Where is everyone?" the verb should agree with the singular subject 'everyone,' so 'is' is correct. In the second sentence "What are they doing?" the verb should agree with the plural subject 'they,' so 'are' is correct. Choice A (is, is) is incorrect because 'everyone' is a singular subject, so 'is' is correct but 'is' does not agree with the plural subject 'they' in the second sentence. Choice C (are, is) is incorrect because 'everyone' is singular, so 'are' is incorrect, and 'is' does not agree with 'they.' Choice D (are, are) is incorrect because 'everyone' is singular, so 'are' is incorrect, and using 'are' with 'they' is redundant.
