HESI A2 Grammar Practice Test

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: The correct answer is C: her. In this sentence, "Roseanne" is a singular noun, so the possessive pronoun "her" should be used to show ownership. "She" (choice A) is a subject pronoun, "their" (choice B) is a plural pronoun, and "hers" (choice D) is a possessive pronoun used without a noun. Therefore, "her" is the most suitable choice to maintain clarity and grammatical correctness.

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: The correct answer is A: counselor. The correct spelling should be "counselor" with only one "l". In this context, a counselor is a person who provides guidance or advice. The incorrect spellings in the other choices are: B: expected should be "expected" with only one "t", C: accept should be "accept" with only one "c", and D: advise should be "advice" as in the sentence. Therefore, the correct answer is A because it is the only word that is spelled incorrectly in the sentence context.

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: The correct punctuation needed in the sentence is "C: Question mark." The sentence is a question as it is asking for confirmation about finishing reading the lab results. Therefore, it requires a question mark at the end to indicate this interrogative tone. A period (A) would make it a statement, not a question. A comma (B) would be incorrect as it does not fit the structure of a question. An exclamation mark (D) would be inappropriate as the sentence is not expressing excitement or surprise.

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: The correct answer is A: iterate. In the context of the sentence, "iterate" does not fit as it means to repeat a process whereas the sentence is describing continuous movement. "Continually" is the correct adverb to describe the teacher's constant movement. "Within" and "district" are spelled correctly and fit appropriately in the sentence.

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: The correct answer is C: her. In this sentence, "Roseanne" is a singular noun, so the possessive pronoun "her" should be used to show ownership. "She" (choice A) is a subject pronoun, "their" (choice B) is a plural pronoun, and "hers" (choice D) is a possessive pronoun used without a noun. Therefore, "her" is the most suitable choice to maintain clarity and grammatical correctness.
