TEAS English Practice Test Questions
Question 1 of 5
Which word(s) in the following sentence should be capitalized? 'She asked, Do you like Indian food?'
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: In the given sentence, the words that should be capitalized are 'She,' 'do,' and 'Indian.' 'She' needs to be capitalized as it is the pronoun referring to a person, 'do' should be capitalized as it is the beginning of a question, and 'Indian' should be capitalized as it refers to a specific nationality or culture. Choice A is incorrect as 'do' is missing. Choice B is incorrect as 'Indian' is not capitalized. Choice C is incorrect as 'Indian' is not capitalized. Therefore, the correct answer is D.
Question 2 of 5
What is the correct plural form of the noun 'class'?
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: The correct plural form of the noun 'class' is 'classes.' When forming the plural of 'class,' you add 'es' to the singular form. Choices A, B, and C do not correctly represent the plural form of 'class' and are therefore incorrect. Choice A is the singular form, choice B is incorrect as it includes an apostrophe, and choice C shows possession which is not required for pluralization.
Question 3 of 5
Which pronoun would not work in the following sentence? 'I asked a colleague to bring it to you.'
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: In the sentence 'I asked a colleague to bring it to you,' the pronoun 'whose' does not fit grammatically. The pronoun 'whose' is used to indicate possession or belonging to someone, which is not relevant in this context. The other pronouns 'my,' 'our,' and 'your' are all appropriate to use in this sentence based on the context of the sentence. Therefore, 'whose' is the correct answer as it does not work in the given sentence.
Question 4 of 5
Select the noun that the underlined adjectives describe: 'Two weeks after his surgery, Henry felt strong and healthy.'
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: The correct answer is D (Henry) because the adjectives 'strong and healthy' describe 'Henry.' In this sentence, 'Henry' is the subject being described as strong and healthy, not 'weeks,' 'his,' or 'surgery.' While 'weeks' and 'surgery' are nouns mentioned in the sentence, they are not the nouns being described by the adjectives in question. 'His' is a possessive pronoun referring to Henry and does not match the criteria of being directly described by the adjectives 'strong and healthy.' Therefore, 'Henry' is the noun that the adjectives specifically describe in this context.
Question 5 of 5
Select the book title that does not contain a preposition.
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: The correct answer is 'D' - 'And Then There Were None.' This title does not contain a preposition. Prepositions are words that show the relationship of a noun or pronoun to another word in the sentence. In this title, 'And,' 'Then,' 'There,' and 'None' are not prepositions; they are conjunctions and pronouns. Choices A, B, and C all contain prepositions: 'in,' 'of,' and 'on,' respectively. Therefore, they are incorrect answers for this question.
