Reading TEAS Practice Test

1. While researching Chomsky's many theories and arguments, Teddy became interested in post-World War II anarchism. Which section of the library is the most likely to contain the relevant books?

A. 000
B. 200
C. 300
D. 900

Correct answer: C

Rationale: Since anarchism is a social science theory, it falls under the classification of social sciences in the Dewey Decimal System. Section 300 covers social sciences, making it the most suitable section for finding books related to post-World War II anarchism. Choice A (000 - Computer science), Choice B (200 - Religion), and Choice D (900 - History) are incorrect because they do not directly relate to social sciences where anarchism would be classified.

2. Which event is out of sequence in the story?

A. Installing the dog run in the backyard.
B. Enrolling the dog in obedience classes.
C. The physical exam confirming the dog's health.
D. The dog's next obedience class.

Correct answer: D

Rationale: The correct answer is D because the story describes the sequence of events after adopting the dog. After bringing Robin home, the sequence includes confirming her health with a physical exam, buying supplies, installing a dog run, and then taking her to the vet. Enrolling her in obedience classes is mentioned to start the following week, making it the next logical step. Therefore, the detail about the dog's next obedience class is not out of sequence. Choices A, B, and C are all in the correct sequence according to the events described in the story.

3. How did Hedy Lamarr contribute significantly to the advancement of technology?

A. The technology of the era wasn't advanced enough to easily implement Lamarr's system
B. She collaborated with the science engineering team employed by Howard Hughes, the aviation tycoon
C. She had several failed inventions, such as an improved traffic light and a carbonated drink
D. Her work led to the future development of cellular phones, Bluetooth, and Wi-Fi.

Correct answer: D

Rationale: The correct answer is D because Hedy Lamarr's invention of a frequency-hopping system, along with George Antheil, laid the foundation for technologies like cellular phones, Bluetooth, and Wi-Fi. This significant contribution revolutionized communication technology. Choice A is incorrect because it focuses on the limitations of the era's technology rather than Lamarr's contributions. Choice B is incorrect as it briefly mentions her collaboration but does not directly relate it to technological advancements. Choice C is incorrect as it highlights her failed inventions, which are not indicative of her significant contributions to technology.

4. Based on the context, which of the following is the meaning of the word match in the sentence?

A. a competitive event
B. a suitable pair
C. a slender piece of wood used to start a fire
D. a prospective marriage partner

Correct answer: A

Rationale: In the context of the sentence, the word 'match' refers to a competitive event, likely a sports match or game that Victoria participated in and won easily. This is the most appropriate interpretation based on the context provided. Choices B, C, and D are incorrect as they do not fit the context of the sentence. 'A suitable pair,' 'a slender piece of wood used to start a fire,' and 'a prospective marriage partner' do not relate to Victoria winning a match in a sports context.

5. Which best describes the meaning of the word decay as used in this passage?

A. To decompose
B. To shrink
C. To wither
D. To deteriorate

Correct answer: D

Rationale: In the context provided, 'decay' implies a gradual deterioration or breaking down over time. It does not specifically refer to decomposing, shrinking, or withering. Therefore, the correct answer is 'To deteriorate.' 'To decompose' is incorrect as it refers to the breakdown of organic matter, 'To shrink' is incorrect as it means to become smaller, and 'To wither' is incorrect as it means to dry up or wilt, none of which fully capture the meaning of decay in this context.
