English and Language Usage TEAS Questions

Question 1 of 5

Which of the following is the complete subject of the following sentence? All of Shannon's family and friends helped her to celebrate her 50th birthday at Cafïż½ Sorrento.

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: Failed to generate a rationale after 5 retries.

Question 2 of 5

In which of the following situations is the inclusion of a citation necessary?

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: The correct answer is C because when the author quotes another author's opinion, it is essential to provide a citation to give credit to the original source and avoid plagiarism. By including a citation, the reader can verify the information and trace it back to its source. In this case, the author is directly using someone else's words, so a citation is necessary. Option A does not require a citation as it is the author's own opinion. Option B, describing a trip to a location, does not typically require a citation unless specific facts or information are being referenced. Option D, describing a play, may not need a citation unless the author is directly quoting dialogue or specific details from the play.

Question 3 of 5

The lake was clear and shimmering, and it was such a friendly day; therefore, he dove right in. Which of the following describes the grammar problem in the sentence above?

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: The correct answer is A, ambiguous word choice. In the given sentence, the word "it" is ambiguous as it could refer to either the lake or the day. This ambiguity can lead to confusion for the reader. To clarify, the sentence could be revised to explicitly state what "it" refers to. Choice B, inappropriate transition word choice, is not the issue as the transition word "therefore" is used correctly to show cause and effect. Choice C, tense disagreement, is not the problem because the sentence maintains consistent tense throughout. Choice D, incomplete sentence, is also not correct as the sentence is grammatically complete.

Question 4 of 5

Which of the following sentences uses a comma correctly?

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B, "Let's eat, Grandma!" This sentence correctly uses a comma to indicate a pause after the imperative phrase "Let's eat." The comma is necessary to clarify that "Grandma" is not the object of the action. Choice A lacks a comma, potentially changing the meaning. Choices C and D contain incorrect comma placements that disrupt the intended meaning.

Question 5 of 5

Which of the following words is spelled correctly?

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: The correct answer is D: Millennium. The word "Millennium" is spelled correctly as it refers to a period of one thousand years. The spelling follows standard English rules, with double "l" and double "n." The other choices, A: Miniscool, B: Miniature, and C: Maintenance, are incorrect due to misspellings. "Miniscool" is not a recognized word, "Miniature" has an incorrect placement of "i" and "a," and "Maintenance" has an incorrect placement of "e" and "a." Therefore, D is the correct choice based on proper English spelling conventions.
