ATI TEAS 7 English quizlet

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: The correct answer is A: "will have been working on." This choice uses the future perfect continuous tense to indicate an action that will be ongoing until a specific point in the future. In this case, it shows that by next month, she will have spent a year working on the project. The other choices are incorrect because: B: "will work on" implies a future action, not a duration of time. C: "has been working on" uses the present perfect continuous tense, which does not convey the future timeframe. D: "had worked on" is in the past perfect tense, indicating an action completed before another past action, which is not suitable in this context.

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: The correct answer is A because it correctly uses the correlative conjunction 'either/or' in presenting two mutually exclusive choices. The sentence structure "You can either come to the party or stay home" follows the pattern of presenting two alternatives. The use of 'either/or' implies that the person being addressed has to choose between attending the party or staying at home. Choices B, C, and D are incorrect: B: This choice incorrectly uses a comma after 'either,' breaking the correlative conjunction pattern. C: This sentence uses 'whether' instead of 'either/or,' which changes the meaning and does not follow the correct structure. D: This sentence uses 'either' to present a choice between two things the person likes, which does not fit the intended use of 'either/or' to present mutually exclusive options.

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: The correct answer is C: "Suggests the house is in poor condition." The word 'dilapidated' means in a state of disrepair. In the sentence, it conveys that the house is rundown or falling apart, indicating poor condition. This choice aligns with the definition of the word and accurately reflects the meaning in the sentence. Choices A, B, and D are incorrect because 'dilapidated' does not specifically create mystery, emphasize size, or imply being haunted.

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B: have. In the sentence, 'Neither... nor' is a correlative conjunction that connects two singular subjects (Michael and Sarah). When connected by 'nor', the verb should agree with the closer subject, which is 'Sarah'. Therefore, the plural pronoun 'have' is the correct form of the verb. A: 'has' is incorrect as it is singular and does not agree with the plural subjects. C: 'are having' is incorrect as it implies ongoing action, which is not suitable in this context. D: 'does have' is incorrect as it is singular and does not agree with the plural subjects.

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B: Subordinate clause. In the sentence, "While the rain poured" is a dependent clause that cannot stand alone as a complete sentence. It is introduced by the subordinating conjunction 'While' indicating a time relationship. The main clause is "they huddled inside for warmth," which can stand alone as a complete sentence. The other choices are incorrect because: A: Main clause - The main clause is the independent clause that expresses a complete thought. C: Appositive clause - An appositive is a noun or noun phrase that renames or explains another noun in the sentence. D: Noun clause - A noun clause functions as a noun in a sentence and can act as a subject, object, or complement.
