Mark the letter A, B, C or D on your answer sheet to indicate the word whose underlined part differs from the other three in pronunciation in each of the following questions. Question 1. A. watched B....

To answer the questions, we'll compare the pronunciation of each word. Question 1: A. watched B. dropped C. washed D. traveled The underlined part is the "ed" ending, which in the IPA notation is pronounced as: - watched: wɔʧt (the "t" sound) - dropped: drɑpt (the "pt" sound, but the "t" sound is still present) - washed: wɑʃt (the "t" sound, but the vowel sound is different from "watched") - traveled: ˈtrævəld (the "ld" sound, no "t" sound) However, if we focus on the underlined part, the one that differs from the others is actually "traveled", since the others ("watched", "dropped", and "washed") all end with the "t" sound. But the vowel sound in "washed" is different from the others. So, both "traveled" and "washed" have different underlined parts in terms of pronunciation. However, "traveled" has a more significant difference. Question 1: D. traveled (Note: "washed" also has a different vowel sound, but "traveled" has a more distinct difference in the underlined part) Question 2: A. cheap B. machine C. watch D. children The underlined part is the "ch" sound, which in the IPA notation is pronounced as: - cheap: ʧip (the "ʧ" sound, which is a voiceless postalveolar affricate) - machine: məˈʃin (the "ʃ" sound, which is a voiceless postalveolar fricative) - watch: wɔʧ (the "ʧ" sound, which is a voiceless postalveolar affricate) - children: ˈʧɪldrən (the "ʧ" sound, which is a voiceless postalveolar affricate) In this case, the one that differs from the others is "machine", since the others ("cheap", "watch", and "children") all have the "ʧ" sound, while "machine" has the "ʃ" sound. Question 2: B. machine For the given words: 'cottage' stressed at first syllable 'cooker' stressed at first syllable 'outside' stressed at first syllable 'housework' stressed at first syllable 'appliance' stressed at second syllable 'electric' stressed at second syllable 'location' stressed at second syllable 'energy' stressed at first syllable Here are the answers: Question 3: Analyze: All options have stress at the first syllable. Answer: Since all options have stress at the first syllable, we can't determine a different one in the position of primary stress. Question 4: Analyze: 'appliance', 'electric' and 'location' are stressed at the second syllable, while 'energy' is stressed at the first syllable. Answer: D. energy Here are the answers: 5. A.
