English TEAS Practice Test Questions
Question 1 of 5
Which of the following sentences follows the rules of capitalization?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: The correct answer is B because it follows the rules of capitalization by capitalizing proper nouns (Ukrainians, Malanka, Earth). Proper nouns, like specific names of people, places, or things, should always be capitalized. In contrast, choices A, C, and D have capitalization errors. In choice A, "African white-backed vultures" is a proper noun phrase that should be capitalized throughout. In choice C, "sun" and "earth" should be capitalized as they refer to celestial bodies. In choice D, "Father of Immunology" is a title that should be capitalized. Therefore, B is the correct choice as it demonstrates proper capitalization of proper nouns.
Question 2 of 5
First and foremost, they receive an annual pension payment. T has been reviewed and changed a number of times, most recently to reflect the salary of a high-level government executive. Which of the following would NOT be an acceptable way to revise and combine the underlined portion of the sentences above?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: The correct answer is C because it introduces unnecessary information ("over the years since 1958") that is not relevant to the context of the sentence. The sentence is focused on the recent changes in the pension payment to reflect the salary of a high-level government executive. Choice A, B, and D all effectively revise and combine the underlined portion by maintaining clarity and conciseness. Choice A and D use a relative pronoun ("which") to refer back to the "annual pension payment," and choice B uses a semicolon to separate the two clauses effectively. Therefore, C is the incorrect choice as it introduces irrelevant information and disrupts the flow of the sentence.
Question 3 of 5
Unfortunately, the belief that changelings could be convinced to leave was not just an innocuous superstition; however, on some occasions, harm came to the individual who was thought to be a changeling. Which is the best way to revise and combine the underlined portion of the sentences?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: The correct answer is C: an innocuous superstition; however, on some occasions. This choice effectively combines the two clauses by using a semicolon to connect them and the transitional word "however" to show the contrast between the belief being innocuous and the potential harm. A: Incorrect, as it lacks a clear transition between the two clauses. B: Incorrect, as the transitional word "but" is not as strong as "however" in showing the contrast. D: Incorrect, as the colon is not suitable for connecting these two clauses and does not convey the contrast appropriately.
Question 4 of 5
Everyday items like potatoes, bread, onions, and even saliva are the tools of art conservators, who work to clean and restore works of art. Which of the following is misspelled in the sentence above?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: The correct answer is A: potatoes. The word "potatoes" is misspelled because it should be spelled with only one "o" in the middle, not two as in the given sentence. It should be "potatos." The other choices, B: saliva, C: conservators, and D: restore are spelled correctly. Saliva refers to the liquid in the mouth, conservators are professionals who preserve and restore works of art, and restore means to bring something back to its original condition. Therefore, the misspelling in the sentence is specifically with the word "potatoes."
Question 5 of 5
Which of the following statements about heat engines is true?
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: The correct answer is D because heat engines can indeed be categorized into combustion engines, which rely on burning fuel to generate heat, and non-combustion engines, which use other methods like thermoelectricity or nuclear reactions. Choice A is incorrect because heat engines are just one type of engine, not the most common. Choice B is incorrect as pneumatic and hydraulic motors are not types of electric engines. Choice C is incorrect as it oversimplifies the classification of engines.
