Actual ATI TEAS 7 Test Questions Set 2

English

Question 1.

Which one of the following sentences contains a dangling modifier?

  • A: The contented puppy sat by the sleeping young child
  • B: Drivers in our state are confused by the outdated driving law
  • C: Adequate lighting is important for anyone who is studying or reading
  • D: My brother had an old truck that sat by the garage that needed paint
  • Correct Answer: D

  • Rationale: In sentence D, the phrase 'that sat by the garage that needed paint' is a dangling modifier because it is unclear which part of the sentence it is meant to modify. The modifier should be placed closer to the word it describes to avoid confusion. The correct sentence structure would be 'My brother had an old truck that sat by the garage in need of paint,' which would eliminate the dangling modifier.

Question 2:

Which of the following prefixes attached to a root would indicate a sequence of events?

  • A: Sub-
  • B: Post-
  • C: Co-
  • D: Anti-
  • Correct Answer: A

  • Rationale: The correct answer is A: 'Sub-'. The prefix 'Sub-' indicates something that comes after or follows, suggesting a sequence of events. In contrast, 'Anti-' denotes opposition, 'Co-' signifies partnership or joint action, and 'Post-' means after in time or order.

Question 3:

What is the subject in the sentence 'Taylor sat under the tree'?

  • A: Taylor
  • B: Sat
  • C: Under
  • D: Tree
  • Correct Answer: A

  • Rationale: The subject of a sentence is the person, place, thing, or idea that is doing or being something. In the sentence 'Taylor sat under the tree,' 'Taylor' is the one performing the action 'sat,' making 'Taylor' the subject of the sentence.

Question 4:

Which of the following sentences demonstrates proper subject-verb agreement?

  • A: The boys and girl visit my house
  • B: The boys or the girls sing in the choir
  • C: The boys and girl in our club are in the cafe
  • D: The boy or the girls come to school late
  • Correct Answer: D

  • Rationale: The correct answer is sentence D: 'The boy or the girls come to school late.' This sentence demonstrates proper subject-verb agreement as the verb 'come' agrees with the plural subject 'the girls.' In subject-verb agreement, when using 'or' to connect two subjects, the verb should agree with the subject closest to the verb. Choices A, B, and C have errors in subject-verb agreement: A should be 'The boys and girl visit my house,' B should be 'The boys or the girls sing in the choir,' and C should be 'The boys and girl in our club are in the cafe.'

Question 5:

What is the correct definition of the prefix 'inter' as used in words like 'interstate' or 'international'?

  • A: Between or among
  • B: A thing or process
  • C: One who is the subject
  • D: Government rule
  • Correct Answer: A

  • Rationale: The prefix 'inter' is commonly used in words to indicate 'between' or 'among'. For example, 'interstate' refers to something that exists between states, and 'international' refers to something that involves multiple nations. Therefore, the correct definition of the prefix 'inter' in this context is 'between or among', making choice A the correct answer.
