Grammar for HESI A2

1. Which word is not spelled correctly in the context of the following sentence? To succeed in this position, it is necessary to manage people well.

Correct answer: D

Rationale: The word 'manage' is misspelled as 'menage' in the sentence. The correct spelling of the word is 'manage.' Therefore, the correct answer is 'D: manage.' Choices A, B, and C are all spelled correctly in the context of the sentence.

2. Select the sentence that is grammatically correct.

Correct answer: B

Rationale: The correct pronouns to use as objects of the verb 'told' are 'her' and 'me.' Therefore, the grammatically correct sentence is: 'Dr. Chu told her and me to take a break for lunch.' 'Her' is used as the object form of 'she,' and 'me' is the object form of 'I' in this context. Choice A is incorrect because 'me' should come before 'her' in the sentence. Choice C is a duplicate of the correct answer. Choice D is incorrect because 'she' should be 'her' and 'I' should be 'me' to function as objects in the sentence.

3. Select the word or phrase that makes the following sentence grammatically correct: 'Screaming ____ took the shopkeeper by surprise.'

Correct answer: D

Rationale: The correct answer is 'Our.' In this sentence, the possessive pronoun 'Our' is needed to show ownership and make the sentence grammatically correct. 'Screaming our took the shopkeeper by surprise' indicates that the shopkeeper was surprised by the screaming of a group or individuals related to 'our.' Choices A, B, and C are incorrect as they are pronouns referring to people ('We', 'They', 'Them'), not possessive pronouns that indicate ownership.

4. I am looking forward to ___________ on a vacation next month.

Correct answer: B

Rationale: In this sentence, the correct form is the gerund 'going' after the preposition 'to.' The gerund form is used after prepositions to indicate an action or state. Therefore, 'Going' is the correct choice to complete the sentence. Choice A ('Go') is incorrect because it is not the gerund form required after 'to.' Choice C ('Be going') is incorrect as it is not the standard form used in this context. Choice D ('Going to go') is redundant and unnecessarily wordy.

5. What punctuation is needed in the following sentence to make it correct? Follow my lead, I have been performing this procedure for years.

Correct answer: B

Rationale: The correct punctuation needed in the sentence is a comma. The sentence should be: 'Follow my lead, I have been performing this procedure for years.' The comma is necessary to separate the introductory phrase 'Follow my lead' from the main clause that follows. The other choices are incorrect because a period would create two separate sentences, an exclamation point is not suitable for the context, and a semicolon would be too strong of a punctuation mark for this sentence structure.
