Reading TEAS Practice Test
1. 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.
2. In which of the following materials would the author be most likely to include this passage?
- A. A history textbook
- B. An obituary
- C. A fictional story
- D. A newspaper editorial
Correct answer: A
Rationale: A history textbook is the most appropriate place for the passage about George Washington because it provides historical context, factual information, and analysis of significant events related to his life and contributions. The passage discusses Washington's role in the American Revolution, his leadership during the Revolutionary War, his decision to step down after the war, his farewell address, and his views on governance and foreign affairs. This type of detailed historical content is commonly found in history textbooks. Choices B, C, and D are incorrect because an obituary focuses on a person's death and life achievements in a brief manner, a fictional story is based on imagination and creativity, and a newspaper editorial typically presents opinions on current events or issues rather than historical accounts.
3. Which of the following terms describes the author's tone in the passage?
- A. Sarcastic
- B. Formal
- C. Informal
- D. Scientific
Correct answer: C
Rationale: The author's tone in the passage is informal. The passage provides a narrative about Hedy Lamarr's life and inventions, offering insights into her challenges and achievements in a conversational manner. The use of phrases like 'To relieve this boredom' and 'Just think, we might not have any of those things' indicates a casual and engaging tone, suitable for storytelling. Choice A, 'Sarcastic,' is incorrect as there is no evident use of sarcasm or irony in the passage. Choice B, 'Formal,' is incorrect because the tone is not stiff or ceremonious; instead, it is relaxed and personal. Choice D, 'Scientific,' is also incorrect as the tone is not focused on presenting technical information or research findings but rather on sharing a personal story.
4. Which of the following sentences from the passage includes a fact?
- A. With a running time of 98 minutes, the pacing is quick and efficient.'
- B. You can see the toll this stalking experience has had on her every twitch of her eye and clench of her jaw.'
- C. The close-up shots feel claustrophobic like the perspective is skewed.'
- D. This is a tense thrill ride that will not disappoint fans of Joy Taylor or this genre in general.'
Correct answer: A
Rationale: The correct answer is A. The sentence 'With a running time of 98 minutes, the pacing is quick and efficient' includes a fact, which is the running time of the movie. This statement provides a concrete, verifiable detail from the passage. Choice B describes a subjective observation about the character's behavior, not a fact. Choice C expresses an opinion about the visual effect of the close-up shots, not a factual detail. Choice D offers an opinion about the movie's appeal to fans of a specific genre, rather than presenting a fact from the passage.
5. Which of these cinemas does not have a suitable option for Thomas and his sister?
- A. Twin Theatres
- B. Reveler Cinema
- C. Big Screen 14
- D. Best Seat in The House
Correct answer: A
Rationale: Only Twin Theatres does not offer a showing before 6 p.m. or after 10 p.m., which are the only times Thomas and his sister are available. The other cinemas - Reveler Cinema, Big Screen 14, and Best Seat in The House - have showings that fall within their available time slots, making them viable options for Thomas and his sister. Therefore, Twin Theatres is the correct answer. Reveler Cinema has showings at 5:45 p.m. and 7:15 p.m., Big Screen 14 has showings at 6:00 p.m., 6:45 p.m., 9:10 p.m., and 10:05 p.m., and Best Seat in The House has showings at 8:20 p.m., 9:55 p.m., and 11:25 p.m.
