ATI TEAS 7 Reading Practice Test Questions
Question 1 of 5
Which title is the best choice for this passage?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: The title 'Recording an Interview' is the most suitable choice for this passage. The passage emphasizes the benefits of using recording devices during interviews, highlighting how it helps capture important details efficiently and without distractions. Choices A, B, and D are incorrect because the passage focuses on the process of recording interviews, not on writing notes, conducting interviews in general, or discussing problems associated with interviews.
Question 2 of 5
Based on the context of the passage, the reader can infer that this information is likely to appear in which of the following types of works?
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: The passage provides a detailed historical account of Queen Victoria's lineage, ascension to the throne, and reign, making it suitable for a biography. The passage focuses on presenting factual information about Queen Victoria's life rather than analyzing it, which aligns more with a biography than a scholarly paper. It does not contain elements of mystery or fiction, as it recounts historical events and real-life figures. Therefore, a biography is the most appropriate choice based on the content and style of the passage.
Question 3 of 5
Which of the following shows the correct chronological order of events from the passage?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: The passage provides a timeline of events related to King George IV, Princess Charlotte Augusta, and Princess Alexandrina Victoria. King George IV secretly married Maria Fitzherbert in 1783 and later married Caroline of Brunswick in 1795. Princess Charlotte Augusta, the daughter of King George IV and Caroline, died in 1817. Princess Alexandrina Victoria, who later became Queen Victoria, was born in 1819. Therefore, the correct chronological order of events is: King George IV married Maria Fitzherbert, King George IV married Caroline of Brunswick, Princess Charlotte Augusta died, and Princess Alexandrina Victoria was born (Choice C). Choices A, B, and D do not follow the correct chronological order as depicted in the passage.
Question 4 of 5
Which of the following could be considered a theme of the passage?
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: The theme of the passage revolves around the idea that even the most unlikely events can happen. The passage describes the improbable events leading to Queen Victoria becoming the queen, emphasizing how unpredictable and unexpected her rise to the throne was. Choice A is not supported as Victoria was born into royalty, so not just anyone can become royalty as implied. While there are mentions of marriages for advantage in the passage, it is not the central theme but rather a detail in the historical context, making choice B incorrect. Although the passage discusses Queen Victoria being an unlikely queen, this statement is too specific to be a theme; a theme should be broader and universally applicable, making choice C incorrect.
Question 5 of 5
Which of the following statements represents an exaggerated claim in support of the argument presented in this passage?
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: The correct answer is D because it is an exaggerated claim to state that students who did not study a foreign language are completely unable to secure any job. While proficiency in a foreign language may enhance job prospects, it is unrealistic to suggest that not studying one would render someone unemployable. Choice A provides a factual statement about the variation in foreign language requirements, so it cannot be considered an exaggeration. Choices B and C highlight the increasing importance of foreign language skills and the benefits of having them, which are supported by trends and studies. These choices may be debatable, but they are not exaggerated claims.
