✍️ Sample TSIA2 Questions & Answers

1. Which approach best avoids plagiarism when using a source in an essay?
✓ Paraphrasing the idea in your own words and citing the source

Paraphrasing with a citation both demonstrates understanding and gives proper credit to the original author.

2. What is the y-intercept of the line 4x - 2y = 8?
✓ y = -4

Solving for y: y = 2x - 4, so the y-intercept is -4.

3. What is the purpose of transitional words like 'furthermore,' 'however,' and 'therefore' in an essay?
✓ To signal logical relationships between ideas and guide the reader

Transitional words clarify how ideas relate — adding, contrasting, or concluding — which helps readers follow the argument.

4. Which organizational strategy is most effective for an essay comparing two approaches to solving homelessness?
✓ Point-by-point comparison, addressing each criterion for both approaches together

Point-by-point comparison keeps both subjects in direct dialogue, making similarities and differences immediately clear.

5. A passage about the civil rights movement uses both first-person accounts from participants and statistics on voter suppression. The author's purpose in combining these sources is most likely to:
✓ Provide both emotional resonance and factual credibility

Combining personal accounts (emotional impact) with statistics (objective evidence) strengthens an argument by appealing to both heart and mind.

6. Which sentence contains a subject-verb agreement error?
✓ The number of homeless individuals in major cities are rising each year.

'The number' is a singular subject and requires the singular verb 'is,' not 'are.'
