TEAS 7 English Practice Test Questions

Question 1 of 5

Joann has brainstormed, created an outline, and completed research for a major term paper. Which of the following is the next step she should complete in the writing process?

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: After completing research and outlining, the next logical step in the writing process is drafting. Drafting involves putting together the first version of the paper based on the outline and research. This step focuses on organizing thoughts, expanding ideas, and structuring the content. Editing (choice
A) occurs after drafting and involves revising and refining the content for clarity, coherence, and correctness. Publishing (choice
B) is the final step where the finished work is made available to the audience. Proofreading (choice
C) typically follows editing and focuses on correcting spelling, grammar, and punctuation errors.

Question 2 of 5

Which of the following sentences contains a homophone error?

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B because 'aural' and 'oral' are homophones, but they have different meanings. 'Aural' refers to hearing, while 'oral' refers to the mouth or spoken words. In the context of treating mouth ulcers, the correct term should be 'oral paste.'

Choices A, C, and D do not contain homophone errors. In choice A, 'heard' is correctly used in the context of listening.
Choice C is grammatically correct and does not involve homophones.
Choice D correctly uses 'effect' and does not involve homophones.

Question 3 of 5

What does the prefix circum- mean in the word circumference?

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: The prefix 'circum-' means 'around,' which is the definition most related to 'circumference.' Circumference refers to the boundary that surrounds a circular shape.
Choice A, 'Beyond,' is incorrect as it implies going further or exceeding a boundary.
Choice B, 'After,' is not related to the concept of surrounding or encircling.
Choice D, 'Before,' is also unrelated and denotes something occurring prior to a specific time or event.

Question 4 of 5

What is the noun phrase in the following sentence?

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: The correct answer is 'Charlotte's new German shepherd puppy.' A noun phrase is a group of words centered around a noun that functions as a subject, object, or complement within a sentence. In this sentence, 'Charlotte's new German shepherd puppy' is a noun phrase as it consists of multiple words ('Charlotte's,' 'new,' 'German shepherd,' 'puppy') and it serves as the subject of the sentence.
Choice A, 'Puppy,' is not a complete noun phrase as it lacks the additional descriptors.
Choice B, 'Charlotte,' is a proper noun and not a noun phrase.
Choice C, 'German shepherd puppy,' is a noun phrase, but it does not include all the elements present in the complete noun phrase 'Charlotte's new German shepherd puppy.'
Therefore, 'Charlotte's new German shepherd puppy' is the correct noun phrase in this sentence.

Question 5 of 5

Which of the following actions should NOT take place during the revising, editing, and proofreading steps of the writing process?

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: During the revising, editing, and proofreading steps of the writing process, the focus is on refining the existing content rather than creating new material. Improving word choice, replacing irrelevant or weak sentences, and identifying sentences that require citations are tasks that fall within these steps to enhance the overall quality and clarity of the writing. Determining the argument the composition will defend is a task that belongs to the drafting stage, where the main ideas and arguments are formulated.
Therefore, deciding on the argument is not a step that should take place during revising, editing, and proofreading.
