TEAS English Questions Questions

Question 1 of 5

Choose the sentence with the correct pronoun usage.

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: The correct pronoun usage is 'me' when it is the object of a verb or preposition. In this sentence, 'me' is the object of the verb 'concerns,' so it should be used instead of 'I.' Additionally, the correct order for objects in a sentence is 'my friend Watson and me.' Choice B is incorrect because 'me' should come before 'my friend Watson' to maintain the correct order. Choice C is incorrect as 'I' is incorrectly used instead of 'me.' Choice D is incorrect because 'I' is used incorrectly as the object pronoun, and the order is reversed.

Question 2 of 5

Choose the sentence with correct punctuation and formatting:

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B because it uses proper punctuation and formatting with the quotation marks around the phrase 'Remember the better days' and a comma after it to indicate the continuation of the sentence. This follows standard grammar rules for punctuating quotes within a sentence. Choice A lacks a comma after the quoted phrase, which is needed before the conjunction 'and.' Choices C and D have missing or misplaced commas and lack proper quotation marks around the quoted phrase, making them incorrect in terms of punctuation and formatting.

Question 3 of 5

The connection caused an insatiable curiosity within Helen. What does the word 'engendered' mean as used in this sentence?

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: The word 'engendered' in this context means to cause something to come into existence or to bring about. In the sentence, it indicates that the connection sparked an insatiable curiosity within Helen, suggesting that it created or triggered this strong curiosity in her. Choice B, 'Made sense of,' is incorrect as 'engendered' does not imply making sense of something. Choice C, 'Connected,' is incorrect as 'engendered' goes beyond just establishing a connection, it means to cause or produce. Choice D, 'Satisfied,' is incorrect as 'engendered' does not mean satisfied, but rather initiating or creating something.

Question 4 of 5

The syllable '-tion' is a(n) _______ and turns a _______ into a _______.

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: The syllable '-tion' is a suffix that is commonly added to verbs to turn them into nouns. For example, the word 'action' is formed by adding '-tion' to the verb 'act.' This transformation changes the verb into a noun representing the act itself. Therefore, option A correctly identifies '-tion' as a suffix that turns a verb into a noun. Choices B, C, and D are incorrect because they misidentify '-tion' as a different type of affix (prefix, infix) and incorrectly associate it with nouns, pronouns, verbs, or adjectives instead of its actual function of transforming verbs into nouns.

Question 5 of 5

Based on the sentence contexts, which is true about the word bark?

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: The word "bark" is used in two different contexts in the sentences provided. In the first sentence, "bark" refers to the covering of a tree, while in the second sentence, it refers to a sound made by a dog. Therefore, option C correctly states that "bark" has different meanings in each sentence - plant covering in the first sentence and a sound in the second. Option A is incorrect because the meanings are clear from the context. Option B is incorrect as the meaning is not defined by the references to the dog or the tree but by the context of the sentences. Option D is incorrect because there is no misspelling of the word in either sentence.
