HESI A2 Grammar Practice Test 2024 Questions
Question 1 of 5
Select the word or phrase that makes this sentence grammatically correct: 'Sometimes, the condition ____ with an unusual symptom-vertigo.'
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: 'Presents' is the correct choice here. The sentence requires a verb that indicates the condition appearing with a symptom. In medical terminology, when a condition 'presents' with a symptom, it means that the symptom is a noticeable feature or indication of the condition. Therefore, 'presents' is the appropriate verb to describe how the condition manifests itself with vertigo. The other options do not fit the grammatical structure of the sentence.
Question 2 of 5
Select the word or phrase that makes this sentence grammatically correct: 'Picking up groceries ____ one of the things you are supposed to do?'
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: The correct answer is 'Is.' In this sentence, the subject 'picking up groceries' is singular, so it should be followed by the singular form of the verb 'to be,' which is 'is.' The verb should agree with the subject in number. 'Am' is incorrect as it is the first person singular form, 'Is it' creates an unnecessary question structure, and 'Are' is plural, not matching the singular subject. Therefore, 'Is' is needed to make the sentence grammatically correct.
Question 3 of 5
Select the word or phrase that makes this sentence grammatically correct: 'Children ____ obey their parents tend to do better in school.'
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: In this sentence, 'who' is the correct pronoun to refer to 'Children,' indicating that children are the ones who obey their parents. Using 'who' makes the sentence grammatically correct by connecting the subject 'children' with the verb 'obey.' The pronoun 'which' is used for things, not people, so it is incorrect. 'Should' and 'to' do not fit in the context of the sentence and do not provide the necessary connection between 'children' and 'obey.' Therefore, the correct choice is 'who.'
Question 4 of 5
Select the word or phrase that makes this sentence grammatically correct: 'The development committee ____ a bargain with the city planners.'
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: The correct answer is 'C: struck.' In this context, the correct verb form should be 'struck' as it is the past tense form of 'strike.' Therefore, the correct sentence should read: 'The development committee struck a bargain with the city planners.' Choice A, 'striked,' is incorrect as 'strike' is an irregular verb, and the past tense is 'struck' rather than 'striked.' Choice B, 'stroke,' is incorrect as it is not the correct past tense form of 'strike' in this context. Choice D, 'strike,' is incorrect as it is the base form of the verb and does not fit the sentence structure requiring a past tense verb.
Question 5 of 5
Select the word or phrase that makes the following sentence grammatically correct: 'Screaming ____ took the shopkeeper by surprise.'
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: The correct answer is 'Our.' In this sentence, the possessive pronoun 'Our' is needed to show ownership and make the sentence grammatically correct. 'Screaming our took the shopkeeper by surprise' indicates that the shopkeeper was surprised by the screaming of a group or individuals related to 'our.' Choices A, B, and C are incorrect as they are pronouns referring to people ('We', 'They', 'Them'), not possessive pronouns that indicate ownership.
