ATI TEAS English Practice Test

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.

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B: have. In the sentence, 'students' is a plural noun, so it requires a plural verb. 'Have' is the correct present perfect tense form for plural subjects. 'Has' (A) is incorrect because it is the singular form. 'Is' (C) is incorrect as it is a singular verb, and 'was' (D) is incorrect as it is the past tense form. Therefore, 'have' best completes the sentence to match the plural subject 'students.'

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: The correct answer is C: Childlike. The suffix "-like" is added to the root word "child" to create the adjective "childlike." The suffix "-like" is commonly used to form adjectives indicating resemblance or similarity to the root word. The other choices, A: Created, B: Pointing, and D: Suburbanite, do not follow this pattern as their suffixes do not change the root words into adjectives. "Created" is a past participle, "Pointing" is a present participle, and "Suburbanite" is a noun.

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: The correct answer is A: Likely. An adverb is a word that modifies a verb, adjective, or another adverb and usually ends in -ly. In the sentence, "She will likely arrive on time," the word "likely" modifies the verb "arrive," indicating the probability of her arrival. The other choices, B: Annoyed, C: Assigned, and D: Unnecessary, are all adjectives describing the subject or object of the sentence, not modifying a verb. Therefore, they are not adverbs.

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: The correct answer is A: Let me know. A complete sentence must have a subject (Let) and a predicate (me know) to express a complete thought. In this case, the subject is "Let" and the predicate is "me know," making it a complete sentence. Explanation for why the other choices are incorrect: B: "On the subject of philosophy." - This is a prepositional phrase, not a complete sentence as it lacks a subject and predicate. C: "Depending on the type of books you like." - This is a dependent clause, not a complete sentence on its own. D: "Where there are lots of people." - This is a subordinate clause, not a complete sentence as it does not express a complete thought.
