Timi · Accepted Answer

To determine the word whose underlined part differs from the other three in pronunciation in each question, let&#x27;s analyze the pronunciation of each word.

Question 1: A. candy B. alley C. gas D. many

- candy: ˈkændi (The "an" in candy is pronounced as /ænd/)
- alley: ˈæli (The "al" in alley is pronounced as /æl/)
- gas: gæs (The "as" in gas is pronounced as /æs/)
- many: ˈmɛni (The "an" in many is pronounced as /ɛn/)

The underlined parts differ in pronunciation, but the most distinct difference is between "al" in alley (pronounced as /æl/) and the others. However, another way to look at it is that the "an" in candy and many are pronounced differently (/ænd/ and /ɛn/, respectively), but both have a distinct "an" sound that is different from the others. Between the two remaining options, I would say that "an" in candy and many are more similar, so I will look at the other two options.

Considering that "gas" is the only word that is not pronounced with the stress on the first syllable and also has a different vowel sound, but the vowel sound of the underlined part "as" is the same as "al" in alley.

Thus, the best answer is D. many, as the underlined part "an" in many is pronounced differently (/ɛn/) than the "an" in candy (/ænd/), the "al" in alley (/æl/), and the "as" in gas (/æs/).

Question 2: A. niche B. monarch C. machete D. gauche

- niche: nɪʧ (The "ch" in niche is pronounced as /ʧ/, a voiceless postalveolar affricate)
- monarch: ˈmɑnɑrk (The "ch" in monarch is pronounced as /k/, a voiceless velar plosive)
- machete: məˈʧɛti (The "ch" in machete is pronounced as /ʧ/, a voiceless postalveolar affricate)
- gauche: goʊʃ (The "ch" in gauche is not pronounced as /k/ or /ʧ/, but rather /ʃ/ or /ʒ/ would be more accurate, as "ch" in French is pronounced differently, however here it is shown as ʃ a voiceless postalveolar fricative, a common approximation)

Considering the "ch" sound in each word, the one that stands out as being different from the others is the "ch" in monarch (pronounced as /k/), as the other three words all have "ch" pronounced as /ʧ/ or /ʃ/.

Analyze: 
&#x27;information&#x27; stressed at third syllable
&#x27;management&#x27; stressed at first syllable
&#x27;television&#x27; stressed at first syllable
&#x27;architecture&#x27; stressed at first syllable
Therefore, &#x27;information&#x27; has a different stress position to other words.

Answer: A. information

Analyze: 
&#x27;accurate&#x27; stressed at first syllable
&#x27;atmosphere&#x27; stressed at first syllable
&#x27;computer&#x27; stressed at second syllable
&#x27;attitude&#x27; stressed at first syllable
Therefore, &#x27;computer&#x27; and &#x27;attitude&#x27; has the same stress position to the other two but &#x27;computer&#x27; has a different stress position from the rest of the words so computer would be the answer.
Answer: C. computer
