HESI A2 Vocabulary Practice Test Questions

Question 1 of 5

What is the meaning of Regulations?

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: First, Regulations are specific and mandatory guidelines set by an authority, similar to rules. Therefore, choice A, "Rules for Conduct," aligns with this definition. Choice B, "Official Standards," may refer to general guidelines, not necessarily mandatory like regulations. Choice C, "Personal Guidelines," implies individual choices, not imposed by an authority. Choice D, "Suggestions," are not mandatory like regulations.

Question 2 of 5

Her mother asked her what she would do after she _____.

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: The correct answer is A: graduated. In this sentence, "after she" indicates a future event, so the correct verb form should be future tense. "Graduated" is the only choice that correctly uses future tense and fits grammatically. Choices B, C, and D are all in past or present tenses, which do not align with the future context of the sentence. Therefore, A is the correct choice.

Question 3 of 5

What does 'invasive' mean?

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B: Entering into a body part. Invasive refers to something that intrudes or penetrates into another entity. In medical terminology, it specifically refers to procedures or organisms entering the body. Choice A is incorrect because invasive doesn't imply harmlessness. Choice C is incorrect as invasive is more than just mildly irritating. Choice D is incorrect because invasive does involve penetration.

Question 4 of 5

A child with a stuffy nose might find it hard to ____.

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: The correct answer is A: Breathe. In this context, the child with a stuffy nose would find it hard to perform the action of breathing due to nasal congestion. "Breathe" is the correct verb form that indicates the act of inhaling and exhaling. The other choices are incorrect: B: Breathing is a noun form, C: Breath is a noun form, and D: Breadth refers to the extent or measure of something, none of which fit the context of the sentence. Thus, the correct answer is A as it accurately describes the difficulty the child would face due to a stuffy nose.

Question 5 of 5

Which sentence uses the word 'present' as an adjective?

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B: "She was present at the meeting." In this sentence, 'present' is used as an adjective to describe her state of being there. It is not a noun (like in A and C) or a verb (like in D). The word 'present' in B directly modifies the subject 'she,' indicating her physical presence. Choices A and C use 'present' as a noun referring to a gift, and choice D uses it as a verb indicating an action of giving or showing something.
