ATI TEAS English and Language Usage Questions

Question 1 of 5

Which word in the following sentence is a homophone of 'I'll'?

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: 'Aisle' is the correct answer. A homophone is a word that is pronounced the same as another word but has a different meaning or spelling. In this sentence, 'I'll' is a homophone of 'aisle' as they sound the same but have distinct definitions and spellings.

Choices A, C, and D do not fit the criteria of being homophones of 'I'll'.

Question 2 of 5

What is a recommended first step when generating ideas for a group presentation?

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B: Brainstorm interesting topics and ideas. Brainstorming is an essential initial step in the creative process of generating ideas for a group presentation. It allows team members to freely share thoughts, explore various angles, and come up with innovative concepts.
Choice A, interviewing sources, typically comes after brainstorming to gather information.
Choice C, developing an organized outline, usually follows brainstorming to structure the presentation content.
Choice D, citing sources, is important but is not the first step in the idea generation process.

Question 3 of 5

Which of the following compound sentences is punctuated correctly?

Correct Answer: D

Rationale:
Choice D is the correct answer because it correctly punctuates the compound sentence with a semicolon separating the two independent clauses. The use of a semicolon is appropriate when two closely related independent clauses are joined without a coordinating conjunction.

Choices A, B, and C have incorrect punctuation or conjunction usage.
Choice A incorrectly uses a comma before 'and,' while
Choice B uses 'though' which is not the best conjunction to join the two clauses.
Choice C also lacks appropriate punctuation to separate the two independent clauses.

Question 4 of 5

Which of the following sentences from a paragraph about gingivitis is the topic sentence?

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: The topic sentence in a paragraph typically introduces the main idea or topic of the paragraph. In this case, choice B correctly serves as the topic sentence by clearly stating that gingivitis is a mild form of gum disease caused by bacteria that leads to inflammation of the gums.

Choices A, C, and D provide additional information that supports or follows the main idea but do not present the overarching topic of the paragraph.

Question 5 of 5

He had to fill out a health history ____ before seeing the doctor.

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: The correct answer is 'questionnaire.' A questionnaire is a set of questions used for gathering information. The incorrect choices B, C, and D have misspellings of the word 'questionnaire.' 'Questionaire,' 'questionnare,' and 'questionairre' are not correct spellings and may lead to confusion or misunderstanding. It is essential to use the correct spelling to ensure clear communication in healthcare settings.
