1. Read the passage: "Handwashing remains the single most effective way to prevent the spread of infection in hospitals. Yet studies show compliance drops sharply during busy shifts, even though proper technique takes less than a minute. Hospitals that post reminders at sinks and track compliance see infection rates fall." Which sentence best states the main idea?
- A. Proper handwashing takes less than a minute
- B. Handwashing prevents infection, but getting staff to do it consistently is the real challenge
- C. Hospitals should hire more staff for busy shifts
- D. Infection rates are rising in most hospitals
Antwort und Erklärung zeigen
Antwort: B. Handwashing prevents infection, but getting staff to do it consistently is the real challenge
The passage moves from the value of handwashing to the compliance problem and what helps. Choice B captures that whole arc. Choice A is a supporting detail, and choices C and D are not stated at all.
2. Read the passage: "The clinic's flu vaccine supply arrived three weeks late this year. By the time doses were available, many regular patients had already been vaccinated at retail pharmacies." What can you infer from this passage?
- A. The clinic ordered too few doses
- B. Retail pharmacies received their vaccines earlier than the clinic
- C. Most patients skipped the flu vaccine this year
- D. The clinic will stop offering flu vaccines
Antwort und Erklärung zeigen
Antwort: B. Retail pharmacies received their vaccines earlier than the clinic
If patients got vaccinated at pharmacies before the clinic's late supply arrived, the pharmacies must have had doses earlier. The other choices go beyond what the passage supports.
3. Read the passage: "Every student deserves a quiet place to study. School libraries should stay open until 9 pm on weeknights, and district leaders should fund the extra staff hours without delay." What is the author's primary purpose?
- A. To inform readers about library opening hours
- B. To entertain readers with a story about studying
- C. To persuade readers that library hours should be extended
- D. To describe how school budgets are set
Antwort und Erklärung zeigen
Antwort: C. To persuade readers that library hours should be extended
Words like should and without delay signal an argument for action, which makes this persuasive writing rather than neutral information.
4. Complete the sentence.
A statement that can be checked and proved true or false is a _____, while a statement of personal belief or judgment is an _____.
Optionen für Lücke 1: fact, topic, summary, theme
Optionen für Lücke 2: inference, opinion, argument, example
Antwort und Erklärung zeigen
Antwort: fact, opinion
Facts are verifiable; opinions express judgment. The TEAS often asks you to separate the two inside a single passage, so watch for judgment words like best, should or worthwhile.
5. Read the sentence: "The new intake process was so convoluted that even experienced staff needed a flowchart to follow it." Based on context, what does convoluted mean?
- A. Brief
- B. Complicated
- C. Popular
- D. Optional
Antwort und Erklärung zeigen
Antwort: B. Complicated
The clue is that even experienced staff needed a flowchart, which signals something hard to follow. Convoluted means complicated or intricate.
6. Read the passage: "The night shift runs from 11 pm to 7 am. It is the best shift for people who like quiet work. Nurses on nights complete rounds every two hours. Everyone should try nights at least once." Which of the following statements from the passage are opinions?
Wähl alles aus, was zutrifft.
- A. The night shift runs from 11 pm to 7 am
- B. It is the best shift for people who like quiet work
- C. Nurses on nights complete rounds every two hours
- D. Everyone should try nights at least once
Antwort und Erklärung zeigen
Antwort: B. It is the best shift for people who like quiet work, D. Everyone should try nights at least once
Best and should signal judgment, so those two are opinions. The shift times and the rounding schedule are verifiable facts.
7. You are using a textbook and need the page number where the term osmosis is discussed. Which part of the book should you check?
- A. The table of contents
- B. The glossary
- C. The index
- D. The preface
Antwort und Erklärung zeigen
Antwort: C. The index
The index lists specific terms alphabetically with page numbers. The glossary defines terms but does not point to the discussion pages, and the table of contents only lists chapters.
8. Read the passage: "Regular sleep improves memory. In one study, students who slept eight hours recalled 20 percent more terms than students who slept five. Attention and mood also improve with consistent rest." Which sentence is a supporting detail rather than the main idea?
- A. Regular sleep improves memory
- B. In one study, students who slept eight hours recalled 20 percent more terms than students who slept five
- C. Sleep matters for students
- D. Rest affects the brain
Antwort und Erklärung zeigen
Antwort: B. In one study, students who slept eight hours recalled 20 percent more terms than students who slept five
The study result is specific evidence backing the broader claim that sleep improves memory. Details answer how do we know; main ideas state the point.
9. Complete the sentence.
The author's _____ is the reason a text was written: usually to inform, to persuade or to entertain.
Optionen für Lücke 1: tone, purpose, theme, bias
Antwort und Erklärung zeigen
Antwort: purpose
Purpose is the author's goal. Tone is the author's attitude, and theme is the underlying message of a literary work. The TEAS tests all three, so keep the terms straight.
10. Read the schedule: "Anatomy lab: Mondays 2 pm. Open study room: weekdays 8 am to 8 pm. Tutoring: Tuesdays and Thursdays 4 pm to 6 pm." A student is free only after 5 pm on weekdays. Which resource can they use?
- A. Anatomy lab
- B. Tutoring on Tuesdays and Thursdays until 6 pm
- C. Neither tutoring nor the study room
- D. The study room on weekends
Antwort und Erklärung zeigen
Antwort: B. Tutoring on Tuesdays and Thursdays until 6 pm
Tutoring runs until 6 pm on Tuesdays and Thursdays, so a student free after 5 pm can still catch the last hour. The anatomy lab meets at 2 pm, and the schedule says the study room is open on weekdays, not weekends, so the other choices contradict the schedule.
11. Read the passage: "Community gardens improve neighborhoods. Plots give residents access to fresh vegetables. Gardeners report knowing more of their neighbors by name. One city found that blocks with gardens had less litter." Which details from the passage support the claim in the first sentence?
Wähl alles aus, was zutrifft.
- A. Plots give residents access to fresh vegetables
- B. Gardeners report knowing more of their neighbors by name
- C. One city found that blocks with gardens had less litter
- D. Community gardens improve neighborhoods
Antwort und Erklärung zeigen
Antwort: A. Plots give residents access to fresh vegetables, B. Gardeners report knowing more of their neighbors by name, C. One city found that blocks with gardens had less litter
The first three choices are specific pieces of evidence. The last one is the claim itself, so it cannot be its own support.
12. Read the passage: "Another meeting that could have been an email. Two hours, forty slides, and the only decision made was to schedule a follow-up meeting." Which word best describes the author's tone?
- A. Enthusiastic
- B. Sarcastic
- C. Neutral
- D. Hopeful
Antwort und Erklärung zeigen
Antwort: B. Sarcastic
The opening line and the pointed detail about the only decision being another meeting signal sarcasm: the author is mocking the meeting, not reporting on it neutrally.
Was im Reading-Bereich der TEAS 7 drankommt
Der Reading-Bereich der ATI TEAS 7 gibt dir 45 Fragen und 55 Minuten. 39 Fragen werden gewertet und 6 sind ungewertete Testfragen, die ohne Kennzeichnung dazwischenliegen, also gib jedem Text volle Aufmerksamkeit.
Die gewerteten Fragen decken drei Inhaltsbereiche ab. Kernaussagen und Details ist 15 Fragen wert: Hauptaussagen, stützende Details, Zusammenfassungen und Anweisungen befolgen. Sprache und Aufbau ist 9 Fragen wert: Wortwahl, Ton, Perspektive, Textaufbau und Fakt gegen Meinung. Wissen verknüpfen und einordnen ist 15 Fragen wert: Schlüsse ziehen, Argumente bewerten und Informationen aus Texten, Tabellen und Grafiken zusammenführen.
Die Texte selbst sind kurz und praktisch: Absätze, Mitteilungen, Etiketten, Zeitpläne und einfache Grafiken statt langer literarischer Texte. Geprüft wird genaues Lesen unter Zeitdruck, etwas mehr als eine Minute pro Frage.
So nutzt du diesen Auszug
Jede Frage unten steht für sich: kurzen Text lesen, antworten, weiter. Widersteh dem Drang, aus deinem eigenen Wissen zu antworten. TEAS-Lesefragen lassen sich immer allein aus dem Text beantworten, und die falschen Optionen sind meist Aussagen, die allgemein stimmen, aber vom Text vor dir nicht gedeckt sind.
Lies danach die Erklärungen zu deinen richtigen und zu deinen falschen Antworten. Sie zeigen, warum die richtige Option im Text steht. Wenn dich Schlussfolgerungsfragen ins Stolpern gebracht haben, geh langsamer vor und frag dich, was der Text nahelegt, aber nicht sagt. Wenn du eine Frage zu Fakt gegen Meinung verpasst hast, achte auf Wertungswörter, im Englischen etwa best oder should. Die Auszüge zu Science, Math und English weiter unten decken die anderen drei Bereiche ab.
