HESI A2 Vocabulary Quizlet Questions
Question 1 of 5
Which phrase correctly completes the sentence? She went to the party ___ her dislike for the host.
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: The correct phrase to complete the sentence is 'In spite of.' This phrase is used to indicate that an action is taken despite a particular circumstance or feeling. In this case, she went to the party in spite of her dislike for the host, meaning she attended the party regardless of her negative feelings towards the host. Choice A, 'Despite of,' is incorrect as the correct phrase is 'Despite,' without the preposition 'of.' Choice B, 'Even though,' is not the best fit in this context as it does not express the contrast between attending the party and disliking the host as effectively as 'In spite of.' Choice C, 'Although,' is also not the most suitable choice as it is used to introduce a contrast, but 'In spite of' provides a stronger emphasis on the contradiction between attending the party and disliking the host.
Question 2 of 5
Which word is NOT used correctly in the sentence? 'A sentence must always begin with a capital letter, but many people forget this rule.'
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: The correct answer is 'D: Capitol.' In this context, 'Capitol' is incorrect as it refers to a building where a legislative body meets. The correct term for uppercase letters is 'capital.' Choice A, 'must always,' is used correctly to emphasize the necessity of starting a sentence with a capital letter. Choice B, 'simple,' is not the incorrect word in the sentence. Choice C, 'forget,' is also used appropriately in the sentence to indicate the action of neglecting the rule.
Question 3 of 5
Which phrase correctly completes the sentence? 'During the fight, I was hit on ___.'
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: The correct answer is 'A: Head.' The phrase 'on the head' is a prepositional phrase indicating where the person was hit. 'Head' is the correct noun to complete the sentence. Choices B, C, and D are incorrect because they either add unnecessary articles ('a' or 'the') or incorrectly use the preposition 'on' before 'head.' The correct structure is 'hit on the head,' without any additional articles.
Question 4 of 5
Which word correctly completes the sentence? 'My sister gave the chocolate bar to my friend and ___.'
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: The correct answer is 'Me.' In this sentence, 'me' is the correct object pronoun to use after the preposition 'to.' 'Myself' is a reflexive pronoun used when the subject and object of the sentence refer to the same person, which is not the case here. 'Us' is the object form of 'we,' which is incorrect in this context. Therefore, 'Me' is the most suitable choice.
