1.Read the notice: Starting Monday, the loading dock will close at 5:30 p.m. instead of 7:00 p.m. Deliveries that arrive after closing must be rescheduled. Drivers who need a late slot should call the front office by Friday. Which conclusion is best supported by the notice?
- A. The warehouse is going out of business.
- B. The loading dock will be closed on weekends.
- C. A driver who expects to arrive after 5:30 p.m. should arrange it before Monday.
- D. Deliveries will no longer be accepted in the evening under any condition.
Svar: C. A driver who expects to arrive after 5:30 p.m. should arrange it before Monday.
The dock closes earlier starting Monday, and drivers who need a later time are told to call by Friday, so someone who will arrive after 5:30 p.m. has to arrange it first. The notice says nothing about weekends or the business closing, and a late slot can still be requested, so evening deliveries are not banned.
2.Read the paragraph: Many people throw out leftover rice after a day, but it can be kept safely if it is handled well. Cool it quickly, put it in a covered container and keep it in the refrigerator. Eat it within a few days and heat it until it is steaming hot. What is the main idea of the paragraph?
- A. Leftover rice can be stored safely if it is handled correctly.
- B. Rice should never be reheated.
- C. Refrigerators work best with covered containers.
- D. Most people waste too much food.
Svar: A. Leftover rice can be stored safely if it is handled correctly.
Every sentence after the first is a step for handling rice safely: cool it, cover it, refrigerate it, eat it soon and heat it well. The main idea is what all the details add up to. Reheating is recommended, not forbidden, and the paragraph is about rice, not refrigerators or food waste in general.
3.Read the sentence: The new manager was reluctant to change the schedule, since the old one had worked for years. As used in the sentence, reluctant means
- A. eager and excited
- B. angry and rude
- C. unable to read it
- D. unwilling or hesitant
Svar: D. unwilling or hesitant
The reason given is that the old schedule had worked for years, which is a reason to hesitate. Put each choice back into the sentence. Someone who is eager would not need to explain why the old way was good enough, and nothing in the sentence points to anger.
4.Read the paragraph: The Eastside garden began as an empty lot covered in trash. Volunteers cleared it and built 30 raised beds. Neighbors who had never met now trade recipes over the fence. Some gardeners say the tomatoes taste better than store tomatoes. Which sentences best support the main idea that the garden helps the neighborhood in ways beyond the food? Select all that apply.
Vælg alle, der passer.
- A. Volunteers cleared a lot that was covered in trash.
- B. Neighbors who had never met now trade recipes.
- C. The garden has 30 raised beds.
- D. Some gardeners say the tomatoes taste better.
- E. Gardeners plant tomatoes in the spring.
Svar: A. Volunteers cleared a lot that was covered in trash., B. Neighbors who had never met now trade recipes.
Cleaning up a dirty lot and bringing neighbors together are benefits to the neighborhood that have nothing to do with eating. The number of beds is a detail about size, and the tomatoes sentences are about food, which is the benefit the question sets aside.
5.Read the directions: Before you use the ladder, check that both locks are fully extended, set the feet on level ground and never stand on the top step. What is the author's main purpose?
- A. To describe how ladders are made
- B. To explain how to use a ladder safely
- C. To persuade readers to buy a ladder
- D. To tell a story about a fall
Svar: B. To explain how to use a ladder safely
The sentence is a list of things to do and not do before and while using a ladder, which is the mark of directions meant to keep the reader safe. It says nothing about how a ladder is built, it does not ask anyone to buy one and it tells no story.
6.Which sentence is written correctly?
- A. Me and Tasha finished the report on Friday.
- B. Tasha and me finished the report on Friday.
- C. Tasha and I finished the report on Friday.
- D. Tasha and I finishes the report on Friday.
Svar: C. Tasha and I finished the report on Friday.
To test a pair, drop one person: I finished the report works and me finished does not. So the subject is Tasha and I. The last choice has the right pronoun but the verb finishes does not agree with a plural subject.
7.Choose the words that complete the sentence correctly.
Neither of the two drivers _____ late, and both of them _____ the delivery on time.
Muligheder for felt 1: were, was, be, are
Muligheder for felt 2: makes, made, making, to make
Svar: was, made
Neither means not one, so it takes a singular verb: was. Both is plural and the sentence is in the past, so the second verb is made. The words of the two drivers sit between the subject and the verb, and they are the reason many people choose were.
8.Which sentence uses capital letters and punctuation correctly?
- A. On Tuesday, we meet with Dr. Patel at Lincoln Elementary.
- B. On tuesday, we meet with Dr. Patel at Lincoln Elementary.
- C. On Tuesday, we meet with dr. Patel at Lincoln Elementary.
- D. On Tuesday we meet with Dr Patel at lincoln elementary.
Svar: A. On Tuesday, we meet with Dr. Patel at Lincoln Elementary.
Days of the week, titles used with a name and the names of specific places are capitalized. Each of the other choices leaves one of them lowercase. The comma after an opening phrase like On Tuesday is also standard.
9.Which of these are complete sentences? Select all that apply.
Vælg alle, der passer.
- A. Because the shift ended early.
- B. The crew finished the job by noon.
- C. Waiting at the gate for the truck.
- D. Call me when you arrive.
- E. After the meeting, which ran long.
Svar: B. The crew finished the job by noon., D. Call me when you arrive.
A complete sentence has a subject and a verb and makes a full statement. The crew finished the job does, and Call me when you arrive is a command whose subject, you, is understood. The other three leave you waiting for the rest: because, waiting and after the meeting each need a main clause to finish them.
10.A shipment has 24 boxes. Each box holds 36 items. How many items are in the shipment?
- A. 816
- B. 864
- C. 884
- D. 960
Svar: B. 864
Multiply 24 by 36. 24 x 30 is 720 and 24 x 6 is 144, and 720 + 144 = 864. A quick check: 24 x 36 should land a bit below 25 x 36, which is 900, and 864 does.
11.Complete the statements about fractions.
3/4 + 1/8 = _____, and 2/3 of 18 is _____.
Muligheder for felt 1: 7/8, 4/12, 1 1/8, 3/8
Muligheder for felt 2: 9, 6, 12, 15
Svar: 7/8, 12
Rewrite 3/4 as 6/8, then 6/8 + 1/8 = 7/8. Adding the tops and bottoms separately gives 4/12, which is a common slip. For the second, divide 18 by 3 to get 6 and multiply by 2 to get 12.
12.A worker earns $15.50 per hour and works 6.5 hours. How much does the worker earn?
- A. $93.00
- B. $97.00
- C. $101.50
- D. $100.75
Svar: D. $100.75
Multiply 15.50 by 6.5. Six hours earn $93.00 and half an hour earns $7.75, and $93.00 + $7.75 = $100.75. Forgetting the half hour gives $93.00.
13.A car travels 180 miles in 3 hours at a steady speed. At that speed, how far will it travel in 5 hours?
- A. 240 miles
- B. 270 miles
- C. 300 miles
- D. 360 miles
Svar: C. 300 miles
First find the speed: 180 miles divided by 3 hours is 60 miles per hour. Then 60 x 5 = 300 miles. Adding only one more hour's distance gives 240, and doubling the 180 gives 360.
14.A rectangular room is 12 feet long and 9 feet wide. Which statements are true? Select all that apply.
Vælg alle, der passer.
- A. The perimeter is 42 feet.
- B. The area is 108 square feet.
- C. The area is 42 square feet.
- D. The perimeter is 21 feet.
- E. The area is 12 square yards.
Svar: A. The perimeter is 42 feet., B. The area is 108 square feet., E. The area is 12 square yards.
Perimeter is the distance around: 12 + 9 + 12 + 9 = 42 feet. Area is length times width: 12 x 9 = 108 square feet. A square yard is 9 square feet, so 108 divided by 9 is 12 square yards. The 42 and the 21 come from mixing up area and perimeter.
15.Solve and evaluate.
If 3n + 5 = 20, then n = _____. When n = 5, the value of 2n - 1 is _____.
Muligheder for felt 1: 5, 15, 25/3, 8
Muligheder for felt 2: 10, 11, 9, 7
Svar: 5, 9
Subtract 5 from both sides to get 3n = 15, then divide by 3 to get n = 5. Put 5 into the expression: 2(5) - 1 = 10 - 1 = 9. Stopping at 15 is forgetting to divide by 3.
Hvad TABE er, og hvilken version du kan komme til at tage
Test of Adult Basic Education, eller TABE, udgives af Data Recognition Corporation (DRC). Voksenuddannelsesprogrammer, jobtræningsprogrammer og nogle colleges bruger den til at se, hvor en kursist starter i læsning, matematik og sprog, og senere til at vise fremskridt. Spørg dit program, hvordan det bruger dine scorer. Den fungerer mere som en placerings- eller fremskridtstjek end som en eksamen, man består eller dumper.
Der er tre delprøver: Reading, Mathematics og Language. Hver findes i fire niveauer, E, M, D og A, fra grundlæggende færdigheder op til avanceret niveau, og mange programmer starter med en kort locator-test, der peger på det niveau, der passer. Du vælger som regel ikke selv dit niveau, og et niveau, der føles let eller svært, er ikke tegn på, at det gik dårligt.
Formen betyder noget. DRC oplister i øjeblikket TABE 11&12 og den nyere TABE 13&14 på sit websted, med blueprints og testtider for 13&14. Dit program bestemmer, hvilken form det bruger, og antallet af spørgsmål og tiden afhænger af formen og niveauet. Denne side nævner dem ikke, for det ville være gætværk. Slå testtiderne op for din form på DRC's TABE-sted, eller spørg dit program, og spørg, om du må bruge regnemaskine i matematikprøven, for reglerne kan være forskellige.
Sådan bruger du smagsprøven
De 15 spørgsmål dækker de tre delprøver i miniature. Spørgsmål 1 til 5 handler om læsning: en slutning ud fra en meddelelse på en arbejdsplads, et hovedbudskab, et ord i sammenhæng, understøttende detaljer og formålet med en række anvisninger. Spørgsmål 6 til 9 handler om sprog: brug af pronominer, overensstemmelse mellem subjekt og verbum, store bogstaver og tegnsætning samt hele sætninger. Spørgsmål 10 til 15 handler om matematik: multiplikation, brøker, penge med decimaltal, rater, areal og omkreds og en kort ligning.
På den rigtige prøve er hvert spørgsmål multiple choice med ét svar. Spørgsmålene med vælg alle der passer og udfyld det tomme felt er øveformater, der får dig til at tjekke hver mulighed i stedet for at stoppe ved den første, der ser rigtig ud. Tag dig tid, læs hver tekst, før du læser spørgsmålet, og regn opgaverne på papir, før du kigger på svarmulighederne.
Læs derefter hver forklaring, også til de spørgsmål, du svarede rigtigt på. Hvis du missede spørgsmålet om subjekt og verbum og spørgsmålet om sætninger, er det én sprogvane at rette op på, ikke to. Hvis pengespørgsmålet tog lang tid, så regn et par lignende i hånden, til trinene sidder. De 15 spørgsmål er et hurtigt tjek af, hvor du skal starte, og dit niveau og din form på prøvedagen kan være en anden.
En ærlig bemærkning: StudyPDF-teamet har skrevet hvert spørgsmål her ud fra de fagområder, DRC offentliggør. Ingen af dem er rigtige TABE-spørgsmål, ingen stammer fra DRC's eksempelspørgsmål eller et forberedelsesfirmas bank, og StudyPDF er ikke tilknyttet DRC eller noget voksenuddannelsesprogram. DRC udgiver selv gratis eksempelspørgsmål til TABE på sit websted.
Sådan bygger du flere øveprøver ud fra dit eget materiale
Femten spørgsmål kan vise dig, om læsning, sprog eller matematik kræver mest arbejde. De kan ikke gøre dig klar alene, især ikke når dit program underviser ud fra sit eget arbejdshæfte.
StudyPDF tager i stedet udgangspunkt i dit materiale. Upload dit arbejdshæfte, dine noter fra timerne eller de udleverede ark fra din underviser. Tryk derefter på Nyt materiale, vælg en øveprøve, vælg de filer som kilder, og bestem, hvor lang den skal være. Du får en prøve skrevet ud fra præcis de sider, og hver forklaring henviser til, hvor svaret kommer fra.
Bo er tutoren til resten. Spørg ham, hvorfor et svar er rigtigt, så forklarer han det ud fra dine egne sider, med et hint først, hvis du vil have det.
Du behøver ikke uploade noget for at komme i gang. Nævn i stedet et emne, for eksempel addition af brøker eller at finde hovedbudskabet, så får du øvespørgsmål om det. Det er gratis at komme i gang.

Godt at vide
Hvad indeholder TABE-testen?
Tre delprøver: Reading, Mathematics og Language. Hver har fire niveauer, E, M, D og A, og dit program eller en kort locator-test afgør, hvilket niveau du tager. Udgiveren, DRC, oplister TABE 11&12 og den nyere TABE 13&14, og antallet af spørgsmål og tiden afhænger af formen og niveauet, så tjek dem for din form på DRC's TABE-sted eller hos dit program.
Består eller dumper man TABE?
Den er ikke bygget som en eksamen, man består eller dumper. Programmer bruger TABE-resultater til at se, hvor du starter, og til at måle fremskridt, og hvert program afgør, hvad dets scorer betyder for dig. Spørg din underviser eller testkoordinator, hvordan dine resultater bliver brugt, og stol ikke på en score, du har læst på nettet.
Hvilken TABE-form kommer jeg til at tage, 11&12 eller 13&14?
Det bestemmer dit program. DRC oplister i øjeblikket både TABE 11&12 og TABE 13&14 på sit websted, og det udgiver blueprints og testtider for 13&14. Spørg dit program, hvilken form det bruger, før du vælger øvemateriale, for eksempelspørgsmål og tider er forskellige mellem formerne. Denne side er et generelt tjek af færdigheder, ikke en kopi af nogen af dem.
Er det rigtige TABE-spørgsmål, og er prøven gratis?
Det er ikke rigtige TABE-spørgsmål. StudyPDF-teamet har skrevet alle 15 ud fra de fagområder, udgiveren beskriver, og StudyPDF er ikke tilknyttet DRC eller noget voksenuddannelsesprogram. Prøven er gratis. DRC tilbyder også selv gratis eksempelspørgsmål til TABE på sit websted.
Har du brug for mere end en smagsprøve?
Upload din egen eksamensbog, dine slides eller noter, så bygger Bo fulde øveprøver ud fra præcis dit materiale, holder styr på de begreber du bliver ved med at ramme forkert, og går efter dine svage punkter. Gratis at komme i gang.
