To determine the word whose underlined part differs from the other three in pronunciation, we'll analyze each question individually.
1. A. dweller: dˈwɛlər
B. sensor: ˈsɛnsər
C. energy: ˈɛnərʤi
D. reduce: rɪˈdus
In dweller, the underlined part ("el") is pronounced as /ɛl/. In the other options, the underlined parts are pronounced as /ɛnsər/ (sensor), /ɛnərʤi/ (energy), and /ɪdus/ (reduce). The word that differs is reduce, as the underlined part ("u") is pronounced as /ɪ/ instead of /ɛ/. So the correct answer is D.
2. A. design: dɪˈzaɪn
B. impact: ˈɪmpækt
C. public: ˈpəblɪk
D. traffic: ˈtræfɪk
In design, impact, and traffic, the underlined parts are pronounced as /zaɪn/, /mpækt/, and /træfɪk/ respectively, which all have the same stress pattern as the other words except public. Public has a different underlined part, which is pronounced as /pəblɪk/, with a schwa sound /ə/. So the correct answer is C.
3. A. expect: ɪkˈspɛkt
B. sensor: ˈsɛnsər
C. design: dɪˈzaɪn
D. reduce: rɪˈdus
The words sensor, design, and reduce all have their main stress on the first syllable or the first part of the word, while expect has its main stress on the second syllable. So the correct answer is A.
4. A. space: speɪs
B. range: reɪnʤ
C. nature: ˈneɪʧər
D. garden: ˈgɑrdən
The words space and range are not stressed on the first syllable and their underlined parts are pronounced as /speɪs/ and /reɪnʤ/. In contrast, nature and garden have their main stress on the first syllable. The word that differs from the other three is space, because it's not the only one with the main stress on the first part. But if we consider the first syllable being stressed as the difference, the correct answer would be either A or B. However, given that the other three words have the first syllable stressed and space and range do not have any difference between the first syllable being stressed, it is more reasonable to choose either A or B as correct.
5. A. exhibit: ɪgˈzɪbɪt
B. vehicle: ˈviɪkəl
C. housing: ˈhaʊzɪŋ
D. honest: ˈɑnəst
The words vehicle, housing, and honest all have their main stress on the first syllable. In contrast, exhibit has its main stress on the second syllable. So the correct answer is A.
