Sagot :

After reading each word and noticing their pronunciations, we choose the following words as the ones whose underlined parts differ from the others:

1. D. talented

2. D. affected.

  • In group 1, each word has the letter "e" underlined as follows:

benefit

sympathetic

reconciled

talented

  • When we read the out loud, we notice that the letter "e" underlined in "talented" does not have the pronunciation as the letter "e" in the other words.
  • In "talented", it represents a shorter sound known as "schwa", while in the other words it represent a long /ε/ sound.

  • In group 2, each word has the final -ed underlined as follows:

finished

stopped

reduced

affected

  • The -ed in "affected" has a short schwa sound before the "d", whereas that sound does not appear in the other words.
