Reading TEAS Practice Test

1. In which chapter should she look for more information on herbal remedies to combat eczema?

A. Chapter 8
B. Chapter 10
C. Chapter 11
D. Chapter 12

Correct answer: D

Rationale: Eczema is a topical condition, so Chapter 12 (section D) would be the most appropriate place to look for information on herbal remedies to combat it. Chapter 8 focuses on herbs for adult needs, and while it may contain some relevant information, it is not specific to topical conditions like eczema. Chapters 10 and 11 cover respiratory and digestive conditions respectively, which are not relevant to treating eczema. Therefore, Chapter 12 is the best choice for Clothilde to find herbal remedies to combat eczema.

2. What is the main idea conveyed in the extract?

A. Shia hears strange noises in the dark hallway
B. Shia is working late at the office
C. Shia is preparing for a presentation
D. Shia encounters a terrifying situation in the CFO's office

Correct answer: D

Rationale: The main idea conveyed in the extract is that Shia encounters a terrifying situation in the CFO's office. The passage describes Shia hearing strange noises, feeling fear, and encountering alarming events like crashes and howls. This builds tension and indicates a dangerous situation unfolding. Choices A, B, and C are incorrect as they do not capture the central theme of Shia facing a frightening encounter in the CFO's office.

3. Why is The Importance of Being Earnest considered one of Wilde's most enduring works?

A. Because it offers a deep and serious critique of society.
B. Because it humorously exposes the flaws of the upper class.
C. Because it captures the essence of Wilde's witty and satirical style.
D. Because it reflects Wilde's deep personal struggles with society.

Correct answer: C

Rationale: The play endures because it perfectly captures Wilde's witty and satirical style, making it a timeless critique of society. 'The Importance of Being Earnest' humorously exposes the flaws of the upper class, rather than offering a deep and serious critique of society (Choice A). While Wilde's personal struggles may have influenced his works, 'The Importance of Being Earnest' is more focused on societal critiques through wit and satire, rather than reflecting his personal struggles (Choice D). Although the play does humorously expose the flaws of the upper class, the main reason for its enduring popularity is its embodiment of Wilde's witty and satirical style (Choice B). Therefore, Choice C is the correct answer.

4. How does the concept of leading double lives contribute to the overall message of the play?

A. It shows the characters' true personalities and the superficial nature of their social roles.
B. It reveals the hypocrisy and superficiality of the characters.
C. It deepens the complexity of the characters and the societal norms they navigate.
D. It complicates the narrative by adding layers of deception and irony.

Correct answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B. In Wilde's play, 'The Importance of Being Earnest,' the characters' practice of leading double lives serves to reveal their hypocrisy and superficiality. This aligns with the central theme of the play, which satirizes the absurdities and trivialities of the British aristocracy. By showcasing the characters' dual nature through their double lives, the play effectively critiques the shallow social roles they inhabit. Choice A is incorrect because the concept of leading double lives does not necessarily show the characters' true personalities but rather their deceptive and hypocritical behaviors. Choice C is incorrect as while leading double lives may deepen the complexity of the characters, the primary focus is on exposing their hypocrisy and shallowness. Choice D is also incorrect as the concept of double lives does add layers of deception, but the key message lies in revealing the characters' superficiality and hypocrisy.

5. When students use inference, what are they able to do?

A. Make logical assumptions based on contextual clues
B. Independently navigate various types of text
C. Summarize a text's main idea
D. Paraphrase a text's main idea

Correct answer: A

Rationale: When students use inference, they are able to make logical assumptions based on contextual clues found in the text. This involves reading between the lines and drawing conclusions that are not explicitly stated. Choice B is incorrect because it refers to the skill of navigating through different types of text independently, which is not specifically related to inference. Choices C and D are also incorrect as they refer to summarizing and paraphrasing a text's main idea, which are different skills from making inferences.
