HESI A2 Vocabulary Quizlet Questions
Question 1 of 5
Which word correctly completes the sentence? 'The men and women of the graduating class ___ their caps in the air.'
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: The correct answer is 'C: Threw.' In this sentence, we need the past tense form of the verb 'throw' to show the action that occurred. Therefore, 'threw' is the correct choice. 'Thorough' (choice A) means complete or exhaustive, which doesn't fit the context of the sentence. 'Through' (choice B) is a preposition or an adverb, not the correct verb form. 'Throwing' (choice D) is the present participle form and does not match the past tense needed in the sentence.
Question 2 of 5
Which sentence uses the VERB correctly?
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: The correct answer is D: 'I wore a white shirt and dark jeans to show my goat at the country fair.' 'Wore' is the correct past tense form of 'wear.' Choice A is incorrect as 'seen' should be 'saw,' which is the correct past tense of 'see.' Choice B is incorrect as 'sung' should be 'sang,' the correct past tense of 'sing.' Choice C is incorrect as 'ran' is the correct verb, but the question specifically asks for the correct use of a verb, not just any verb.
Question 3 of 5
Which word is NOT CORRECTLY USED in the sentence? Confidentiality should be observed at all times, so the nurse should not discuss clients when the conversation can be overheard.
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: The correct answer is A. In the sentence, 'be observed' should be changed to 'should be observed' for proper grammar. 'Should be observed' is the correct way to indicate the necessity of maintaining confidentiality. Choice B, 'by,' is used correctly as a preposition. Choice C, 'can be,' is also used correctly in the sentence. Choice D, 'should not,' is correctly used to indicate what the nurse ought not to do.
Question 4 of 5
Which word is NOT CORRECT? The student did not recognize which backpack was hers.
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: The correct answer is 'C: Hers.' The possessive pronoun 'hers' does not require an apostrophe. The use of 'her's' with an apostrophe is grammatically incorrect. Choices A, B, and D ('Backpack,' 'Student,' and 'Recognize') are all spelled correctly and are grammatically sound in the sentence provided.
