I'll analyze the stress patterns of each word to determine which one differs from the other three in each question.
1. A. dependent, B. extended, C. memorise, D. amazing
Analyze: 'dependent', 'extended', 'amazing' all have stress on the second syllable. We can't verify 'memorise', but the other three options have a common pattern.
Answer: C (assuming memorise has a different stress pattern, but this answer is not definitive due to the lack of information)
2. A. houschold, B. replace, C. nuclear, D. promise
Analyze: 'replace' has stress on the second syllable, while 'nuclear' and 'promise' both have stress on the first syllable. We can't verify 'houschold', but 'replace' stands out as different from 'nuclear' and 'promise'.
