HESI A2 Vocabulary Quizlet Questions

Question 1 of 5

Which word is NOT GRAMMATICALLY CORRECT? During the time he lived in New York, he worked as a writer, an editor, and a library.

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B: Library. The sentence should read, "During the time he lived in New York, he worked as a writer, an editor, and a librarian." The word "library" is incorrect as it should be "librarian" to refer to a person who works in a library. A, C, and D are grammatically correct as "an" is used before a vowel sound, "as" is a conjunction showing the relationship between his time in New York and his work, and "during" is a preposition indicating a period of time.

Question 2 of 5

Which phrase correctly completes the sentence? 'As we celebrated the start of the evening festivities, our glasses ___ and a toast was made by our host.'

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: The correct answer is C: "Were raised." In this context, the phrase should be in the passive voice to indicate that the glasses were lifted by the guests. The verb "raised" is the correct past participle form of "raise" when used in the passive voice. Choices A, B, and D are incorrect because they either use the incorrect past participle form of the verb ("risen" in A and B) or use an intransitive verb that does not convey the intended meaning ("arose" in D, which means to come into existence).

Question 3 of 5

To implement something is to:

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: The correct answer is C: cause it to happen. When you implement something, you are taking action to make it happen or become a reality. You are executing a plan or process to achieve a specific goal or result. Choices A, B, and D are incorrect because preventing something, emphasizing importance, or following from beginning to end do not capture the essence of implementation, which is about putting a plan into action to bring about a desired outcome.

Question 4 of 5

Which sentence uses the VERB correctly?

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: The correct answer is D because the verb "wore" agrees with the subject "I" in past tense. The other choices have verbs that do not match the subject or are not in the correct tense. A has "saw" which is the past tense of "see" but the subject is "I" not "you." B has "sang" which is the past tense of "sing" but again the subject is "I" not "the national anthem." C has "ran" which is the past tense of "run" but the subject is "I" not "Nibbles the Rabbit."

Question 5 of 5

What is the best description for the word 'distal'?

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B: Farthest from injury. In anatomical terms, 'distal' refers to a body part that is farthest away from a point of reference, usually the point of attachment or origin. This is the most accurate description of the term 'distal' in medical contexts. The other choices are incorrect because: A: Receives blood from lungs - This describes the function of a specific body part, not the location or position. C: Closest to heart - This describes proximity to the heart, which is the opposite of what 'distal' means. D: Empathetic - This choice is unrelated to the anatomical term 'distal' and does not provide a relevant description.
