Timi · Accepted Answer

Analyze: 
&#x27;participant&#x27; stressed at second syllable
&#x27;information&#x27; stressed at third syllable
&#x27;geography&#x27; stressed at second syllable
&#x27;activity&#x27; stressed at second syllable
Therefore, &#x27;information&#x27; has a different stress position to other words.

Answer: B. information

Analyze: 
&#x27;suggest&#x27; stressed at second syllable
&#x27;explore&#x27; stressed at second syllable
&#x27;attach&#x27; stressed at second syllable
&#x27;listen&#x27; stressed at first syllable
Therefore, &#x27;listen&#x27; has a different stress position to other words.

Answer: D. listen

To determine which words have underlined parts that differ in pronunciation from the other three, let&#x27;s analyze the given words.

Question 13: 
A. church: ʧərʧ
B. change: ʧeɪnʤ
C. choose: ʧuz
D. chef: ʃɛf

The words "church", "change", and "choose" all start with the "ʧ" sound (the "ch" sound in church). However, the word "chef" starts with the "ʃ" sound (the "sh" sound). So the answer is D. chef.

Question 14: 
A. ranked: ræŋkt
B. proved: pruvd
C. gained: geɪnd
D. prepared: priˈpɛrd

The words "ranked", "proved", and "gained" all end with the "d" sound, which is pronounced as a voiced dental stop [d] or a flap [ɾ] sound after a nasal or a vowel sound with an intervening n sound or an intervening nasal vowel sound with the exception that the sound in the word proved is a flap [d] sound and also voiced alveolar stop. However, the word "prepared" ends with the "rd" sound, which is pronounced as a voiced alveolar stop sound [rd] or an alveolar approximant [ɹ] sound (after the word has been reduced) or an unreleased voiced alveolar stop sound. In this case all words end with a similar sound with variations based on accent, but "prepared" has an intervening unreleased sound "p" in addition to the alveolar stop. The only thing that really stands out as clearly different is the fact that the word "prepared" has a different stress than the other options, which have stress on the first syllable. In "prepared" the "ˈ" sign indicates that the main stress is on the second syllable: priˈpɛrd. So, the answer is D. prepared

Here are the answers to the questions:

Question 15: C. because of
Question 16: C. give up
Question 17: C. attractions
