TEAS English Questions Questions
Question 1 of 5
Which of the following structures is present in the sentence: "The tall man wearing a black raincoat, a yellow hat, and one red shoe entered the restaurant, walked to the back, and sat down alone at the smallest table farthest away from the staff and other patrons."?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: The correct answer is B: Complex. This sentence contains an independent clause "The tall man entered the restaurant" and a dependent clause "wearing a black raincoat, a yellow hat, and one red shoe." The dependent clause cannot stand alone as a complete sentence, making it a complex sentence. Other choices are incorrect as the sentence does not have multiple independent clauses for a compound or compound-complex sentence, and it is not a simple sentence as it contains a dependent clause.
Question 2 of 5
What is the point of view indicated by the underlined words in the sentence below?"You should know that I am planning to attend the meeting tomorrow."
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: The correct answer is B (second; first). The underlined words "I am planning" indicate a first-person point of view, as the speaker is referring to themselves. The words "You should know" indicate a second-person point of view, as the speaker is addressing the listener directly. Therefore, the point of view indicated in the sentence is a combination of second-person and first-person perspectives. Choice A (third; second) is incorrect because the sentence does not contain any third-person perspective. Choice C (first; second) is incorrect as it reverses the order of the perspectives in the sentence. Choice D (first; third) is incorrect because there is no indication of a third-person perspective in the sentence.
Question 3 of 5
What type of sentence is the sentence above?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: The given sentence, "You are a tutor," is a simple sentence as it consists of only one independent clause without any dependent clauses. It contains a subject ("You") and a predicate ("are a tutor"). Therefore, the correct answer is A: Simple. The other choices are incorrect because a complex sentence would require at least one independent clause and one dependent clause, a compound sentence would consist of two independent clauses joined by a coordinating conjunction, and a compound-complex sentence would have multiple independent clauses and at least one dependent clause.
Question 4 of 5
"I would like to go with you; however, I won't have time." In this sentence, what part of speech is the word "however"?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: The correct answer is C: Conjunctive adverb. "However" is used to connect two independent clauses and shows contrast. It functions as an adverb modifying the whole sentence. It is not a preposition (A) as it doesn't show a relationship between nouns. It is not a conjunction (B) as it is not joining two clauses without modifying them. It is not a subordinating conjunction (D) as it doesn't introduce a dependent clause.
Question 5 of 5
Which of the following correctly completes the sentence? 'A childhood reading of Tales from Shakespeare permanently _____ Helene's interest in studying the Great Bard.'
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: The correct answer is A: piqued. In this context, "piqued" means to stimulate or arouse. A childhood reading of Tales from Shakespeare would stimulate or arouse Helene's interest in studying Shakespeare. The other choices are incorrect: B: peaked means reached the highest point, C: peked and D: peeked are misspellings and do not make sense in the context of the sentence.
