Reading TEAS Practice Test
1. What key idea is conveyed in Frost's poem?
- A. Exploration of love and loss.
- B. Illustration of challenging life decisions.
- C. Reflection on life's journey and choices.
- D. Emphasis on the significance of choosing uncommon paths.
Correct answer: D
Rationale: The correct answer is D. Frost's poem emphasizes that opting for less conventional paths in life adds depth and meaning. Choices A, B, and C are incorrect because the poem specifically focuses on the importance of selecting uncommon routes rather than love, loss, general life decisions, or life's journey.
2. Which of the following most accurately describes how the argument proceeds?
- A. The argument proceeds by stating a conclusion, then providing supporting evidence.
- B. The argument proceeds by stating several facts and drawing a conclusion.
- C. The argument proceeds by offering a premise, then refuting it.
- D. The argument proceeds by making a comparison between two subjects.
Correct answer: A
Rationale: The correct answer is A. The argument in the text proceeds by stating a conclusion ('Dwight is the best employee') and then providing supporting evidence ('The top salesman is always the best employee'). This aligns with choice A, where the argument is structured by stating a conclusion first and then offering supporting evidence. Choices B, C, and D are incorrect because the argument in the text does not simply present facts and draw a conclusion, offer a premise and then refute it, or make a comparison between two subjects.
3. At the top of an encyclopedia's page are the following two guide terms: kingcraft and klieg light. Which one of the following words will be found on this page?
- A. Kleptomania
- B. Knead
- C. Kinesthesia
- D. Kickback
Correct answer: C
Rationale: The correct answer is C, 'Kinesthesia.' When arranging words alphabetically, 'Kinesthesia' would come between 'kingcraft' and 'klieg light.' Choice A, 'Kleptomania,' starts with a 'K' but comes after 'Kinesthesia.' Choices B and D, 'Knead' and 'Kickback,' do not fit alphabetically between the guide terms provided at the top of the page.
4. Which of the following best describes the way the passages are structured?
- A. Both passages open by defining a legal concept and then continue to describe situations in order to further explain the concept.
- B. Both passages begin with situations, introduce accepted definitions, and then cite legal ramifications.
- C. The first passage presents a long definition while the second passage begins by showing an example of assault.
- D. Both cite specific legal doctrines, then proceed to explain the rulings.
Correct answer: A
Rationale: The passages are structured in a way where both begin by defining a legal concept (assault and battery) and then provide further explanations and examples to help clarify and elaborate on the concepts. Both passages open with a clear definition and then proceed to discuss the concept in various situations. Choice A is correct because it accurately captures the structure of the passages. Choice B is incorrect because the passages do not introduce accepted definitions after presenting situations; they define the legal concepts first. Choice C is incorrect because the first passage does not present a long definition, it begins by defining lethal force and then provides examples. Choice D is incorrect because while the passages explain legal concepts, they do not specifically cite legal doctrines or explain rulings.
5. How many people can participate in a volleyball game?
- A. 14
- B. 15
- C. half of a class
- D. an entire class
Correct answer: D
Rationale: Based on the extract provided, a volleyball game can involve an entire class participating. The passage mentions that with just one net and one ball, an entire class can play volleyball. While the number of participants in a volleyball game can vary, the specific reference to a whole class in the passage indicates that a significant number of people can take part. Therefore, the correct answer is 'an entire class.' Choice A, '14,' is incorrect because the passage explicitly mentions that an entire class can participate, which typically involves more than 14 individuals. Choice B, '15,' is incorrect as it does not account for the flexibility of the number of participants in a volleyball game as stated in the passage. Choice C, 'half of a class,' is incorrect as the passage clearly states that an entire class can participate, not just half.
