ATI TEAS 7
Reading TEAS Practice Test
1. 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.
2. Which of the following bones is not part of the appendicular skeleton?
- A. skull
- B. clavicle
- C. scapula
- D. pelvic bone
Correct answer: A
Rationale: The correct answer is A, 'skull.' The skull is part of the axial skeleton, not the appendicular skeleton. The axial skeleton, which includes the skull, vertebrae, and ribs, is located down the center of the body and protects vital organs such as the brain and heart. On the other hand, the appendicular skeleton consists of bones of the arms, legs, and the bones that attach these limbs to the axial skeleton. Choices B, C, and D (clavicle, scapula, pelvic bone) are part of the appendicular skeleton as they form the bones of the limbs and girdles that connect the limbs to the axial skeleton.
3. To which section of the library should Jorgen go to locate these works?
- A. 100
- B. 200
- C. 700
- D. 800
Correct answer: D
Rationale: Jorgen should go to Section 800 to locate The Iliad and The Odyssey by Homer. These works are literary masterpieces and would be categorized under literature in the library. While sections 100, 200, and 700 cover Philosophy and psychology, Religion, and Arts and recreation respectively, they are not the most suitable sections for finding works of literature like The Iliad and The Odyssey.
4. Which of the following words are synonyms for 'erroneously' as used in the passage?
- A. Correctly
- B. Inconsequentially
- C. Mistakenly
- D. Extraneously
Correct answer: C
Rationale: 'Erroneously' means incorrectly or mistakenly, which aligns with the context provided in the passage. Therefore, 'Incorrectly' and 'Mistakenly' are synonyms for 'erroneously.' 'Inconsequentially' means not resulting in any significant consequence, which is not synonymous with 'erroneously.' 'Extraneously' means irrelevant or unnecessary, which is also not a synonym for 'erroneously.'
5. What text feature does the author use to organize the passage?
- A. headings and subheadings
- B. superscripts
- C. diagrams
- D. labels and footnotes
Correct answer: A
Rationale: Headings and subheadings are commonly used text features that help organize a passage by signaling different sections or topics. In this case, the passage is organized with clear headings such as 'Dairy: Beverage,' 'Dairy: Meals,' 'Dairy: Snack,' and 'Dairy: Dessert.' These headings provide a structured layout, making it easier for readers to identify specific information within each category. Superscripts, diagrams, and labels and footnotes are not used in this passage for organizing content, making them incorrect choices.
