Reading TEAS Practice Test

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: The correct answer is D because it aligns with logical reasoning. By reducing legends about the Bermuda Triangle, people may be less likely to attribute accidents to supernatural causes, leading to a decrease in reported accidents. Choice A is incorrect because while most events have explanations, mysteries still persist. Choice B is incorrect as expanding focus to the Azores doesn't necessarily increase accidents. Choice C is incorrect as there is no evidence to support deliberate concealment by the Navy.

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: The correct answer is C because the announcement mentions that a fee has been implemented for computer use. This suggests that the library aims to discourage patrons from spending too long on the computers to ensure fair access for all. Choice A is incorrect as it assumes the library is planning to purchase more computers, which is not mentioned in the announcement. Choice B is incorrect as there is no mention of budget cuts in the announcement. Choice D is incorrect as there is no direct evidence to support the claim that the fee is covering Internet service costs.

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B: Young fish capable of feeding themselves. In the context of the passage, 'fry' refers to the stage in a fish's life cycle when they are newly hatched and have absorbed their yolk sac, becoming capable of feeding themselves. This definition aligns with the typical usage of 'fry' in the context of fish biology. The other choices are incorrect because A refers to fertilized eggs, C refers to a location for larvae, and D refers to fish being prepared for frying, which are not the intended meanings of 'fry' in this specific context.

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: The correct answer is D (500). Jorgen should go to the 500 section of the library, which is where mathematics and natural sciences are typically categorized. The sieve of Eratosthenes is a mathematical algorithm used for finding all prime numbers up to a given integer. Therefore, the most relevant section for current applications of this algorithm would be in the mathematics and natural sciences section. Choices A, B, and C are incorrect because they do not correspond to a relevant section for mathematical topics like the sieve of Eratosthenes.

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: Rationale: 1. Dinner typically offers the most diverse meal options, including meat-based dishes. 2. Bringing the platter at dinner would limit vegetarian choices for Cynthia and fellow vegetarians. 3. Breakfast, lunch, and cocktail hour usually have simpler and more vegetarian-friendly options. 4. Therefore, dinner is the best time to bring the platter for the least vegetarian meal options.
