English TEAS Practice Test Questions
Question 1 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.
Question 2 of 5
Which of the following is a compound sentence?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: The correct answer is A. This sentence is a compound sentence because it consists of two independent clauses joined by a coordinating conjunction "and." The first independent clause is "Plague, generally not a major public health concern, actually continues to spread among rodent populations today," and the second independent clause is "it even occasionally makes its way into a human host." Each clause can stand alone as a complete sentence. Choice B is incorrect because it is a complex sentence with a dependent clause ("which seeks answers to humanity's questions about its past") and an independent clause ("is significantly helped by new technologies"). Choice C is incorrect because it is a simple sentence with only one independent clause ("countries around the world are imposing taxes on sodas and other sugary drinks in an effort to curb unhealthy habits"). Choice D is incorrect because it is a complex sentence with a dependent clause ("Because the assassination of President John F. Kennedy continues to haunt and fascinate Americans") and an independent clause ("new movies,
Question 3 of 5
Which of the following sentences has the correct subject-verb agreement?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: The correct answer is B - "The employer decided that he could not, due to the high cost of health care, afford to offer other benefits to his employees." The subject "employer" is singular and agrees with the singular verb "decided." "He" is the singular pronoun that correctly refers back to the singular subject. The verb "could not afford" is in agreement with the singular subject "employer." Choice A has a plural subject "horse breed" and a singular verb "has," which is incorrect. Choice C has a singular subject "Puerto Rico" and a plural verb "includes," which is incorrect. Choice D has a singular subject "Each" and a singular verb "decides," but the pronoun "they" is incorrectly used instead of "he or she."
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
Unlike a traditional comic book, a graphic novel is released as one single publication, either in the form of one long story or an anthology. Which of the following is an appropriate synonym for traditional as it is used in the sentence?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: The correct answer is B: conventional. The word "traditional" in the context of the sentence refers to the usual or standard way of something being done. In this case, it contrasts with the unique format of a graphic novel. "Old-fashioned" is not the best synonym here as it implies outdatedness rather than the standard way of doing something. "Expensive" and "popular" do not relate to the idea of being standard or usual. "Conventional" best captures the meaning of "traditional" in this context.
