SECTION 1: READING (Questions 1–50)
The Reading section of the ATI TEAS 7 contains 45 questions (39 scored, 6 unscored) to be
completed in 55 minutes. It covers Key Ideas and Details (15 questions), Craft and Structure (9
questions), and Integration of Knowledge and Ideas (15 questions).
Question 1
Read the following passage and answer the question:
"The human microbiome, consisting of trillions of microorganisms living in and on the human
body, plays a crucial role in maintaining health. These microbes aid in digestion, synthesize
essential vitamins, and protect against pathogenic invaders. Recent research has revealed that
disruptions to the microbiome—caused by factors such as antibiotic overuse, poor diet, and
chronic stress—are associated with a wide range of conditions, including obesity, autoimmune
disorders, and mental health conditions. The emerging field of microbiome-based therapeutics
offers promising avenues for treating these conditions through probiotics, fecal microbiota
transplants, and personalized nutrition plans."
What is the author's primary purpose in this passage?
A) To persuade readers to take probiotic supplements
B) To inform readers about the importance and functions of the human microbiome
C) To entertain readers with stories about microorganisms
D) To criticize the overuse of antibiotics
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: The passage presents factual information about the microbiome, its functions, and
its role in health and disease. The author does not attempt to persuade readers to take
probiotics (A), entertain with stories (C), or criticize antibiotic use (D), though antibiotic overuse
is mentioned as a contributing factor to microbiome disruption. The tone is informative and
objective, making B the correct answer.
,Question 2
Which of the following sentences from the passage best supports the claim that the
microbiome affects multiple body systems?
A) "The human microbiome, consisting of trillions of microorganisms living in and on the human
body, plays a crucial role in maintaining health."
B) "These microbes aid in digestion, synthesize essential vitamins, and protect against
pathogenic invaders."
C) "Recent research has revealed that disruptions to the microbiome are associated with a wide
range of conditions, including obesity, autoimmune disorders, and mental health conditions."
D) "The emerging field of microbiome-based therapeutics offers promising avenues for treating
these conditions."
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: Sentence C directly supports the claim that the microbiome affects multiple body
systems by listing conditions affecting different systems: obesity (metabolic/endocrine),
autoimmune disorders (immune system), and mental health conditions (nervous system).
Sentence A introduces the topic generally, B describes functions, and D discusses treatments.
Question 3
Based on the passage, which of the following can be inferred about the relationship between
antibiotics and the microbiome?
A) Antibiotics always cause permanent damage to the microbiome
B) Antibiotics are the only cause of microbiome disruption
C) Antibiotic use can disrupt the microbiome, which may contribute to disease
D) Antibiotics have no effect on the microorganisms in the body
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: The passage states that "disruptions to the microbiome—caused by factors such as
antibiotic overuse" are associated with various conditions. This supports the inference that
antibiotic use can disrupt the microbiome and potentially contribute to disease. The passage
does not suggest that damage is always permanent (A), that antibiotics are the only cause (B),
or that antibiotics have no effect (D).
Question 4
,Read the following passage:
"The Industrial Revolution, which began in Great Britain in the late 18th century, fundamentally
transformed human society. Prior to this period, most people lived in rural agricultural
communities and produced goods by hand. The introduction of mechanized manufacturing,
particularly in the textile industry, led to the growth of factories and the migration of workers to
urban centers. While this shift brought unprecedented economic growth and technological
innovation, it also created significant social challenges, including poor working conditions, child
labor, and overcrowded cities. The effects of the Industrial Revolution continue to shape
modern society in countless ways."
Which of the following best describes the organizational structure of this passage?
A) Cause and effect
B) Compare and contrast
C) Chronological order
D) Problem and solution
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: The passage explains the causes (mechanized manufacturing, factories) and effects
(urban migration, economic growth, social challenges) of the Industrial Revolution. While it
does mention a time sequence, the primary organizational structure is cause and effect, as the
passage focuses on how the Industrial Revolution transformed society.
Question 5
What is the author's tone in the passage about the Industrial Revolution?
A) Celebratory
B) Neutral and objective
C) Critical and negative
D) Nostalgic
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: The author presents both positive aspects (economic growth, technological
innovation) and negative aspects (poor working conditions, child labor, overcrowded cities) of
the Industrial Revolution without taking a strong emotional stance. This balanced presentation
indicates a neutral and objective tone.
, Question 6
Which of the following would be the most appropriate title for the passage about the Industrial
Revolution?
A) "The Dark Side of Progress: How the Industrial Revolution Ruined Society"
B) "A Complete History of British Manufacturing"
C) "The Industrial Revolution: Transformative Change and Its Lasting Impact"
D) "Why the Textile Industry Changed Everything"
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: Option C accurately captures both the transformative nature of the Industrial
Revolution and its lasting impact, which are the two main ideas of the passage. Option A is too
negative and one-sided. Option B is too broad. Option D is too narrow, focusing only on textiles.
Question 7
Read the following passage:
"Despite overwhelming scientific consensus on climate change, public opinion remains divided.
A 2023 survey found that while 72% of Americans believe climate change is occurring, only 58%
believe it is primarily caused by human activity. This gap between scientific understanding and
public perception has significant implications for policy implementation. Factors contributing to
this divide include political polarization, media fragmentation, and the spread of misinformation
on social media platforms. Bridging this gap requires not only better science communication but
also a recognition of the cultural and values-based dimensions of the climate debate."
The author's main argument is that:
A) Climate change is not a serious problem
B) The gap between scientific consensus and public opinion hinders policy action
C) Social media is solely responsible for climate change denial
D) Scientists should not communicate with the public
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: The passage focuses on the gap between scientific consensus and public opinion and
its implications for policy implementation. The author argues that this gap has significant
consequences and requires addressing. Option A contradicts the passage, C overstates social
media's role, and D contradicts the recommendation for better science communication.
