Accepted Answer

To answer the questions, we need to analyze the pronunciation of each word and find the one that differs from the others.

Question 1: 
- facilitated: fəˈsɪləteɪtɪd (ends with /ɪd/)
- included: ɪnˈkludɪd (ends with /ɪd/)
- developed: dɪˈvɛləpt (ends with /pt/)
- polluted is not provided, but its typical pronunciation is /pəˈluːtɪd/ (ends with /ɪd/)

The underlined part that differs from the others in pronunciation is "developed" since it&#x27;s the only one that ends with /pt/, not /ɪd/. So the answer is C.

Question 2:
- aren&#x27;t: ˈɑrənt (starts with /ɑ/)
- prepare: priˈpɛr (starts with /pri/)
- share: ʃɛr (starts with /ʃɛ/)
- square: skwɛr (starts with /skwɛ/)

The underlined part that differs from the others in pronunciation is "aren&#x27;t" since it&#x27;s the only one that starts with a vowel sound /ɑ/, while the others start with consonant sounds. So the answer is A.

Analyze: &#x27;science&#x27; stressed at first syllable
&#x27;physics&#x27; stressed at first syllable
&#x27;prefer&#x27; stressed at second syllable
&#x27;neighbour&#x27; stressed at first syllable
Therefore, &#x27;prefer&#x27; has a different stress position to other words.
Answer: C. prefer

Analyze: &#x27;changeable&#x27; stressed at first syllable
&#x27;personal&#x27; stressed at first syllable
&#x27;dedicate&#x27; stressed at first syllable
&#x27;congestion&#x27; stressed at second syllable
Therefore, &#x27;congestion&#x27; has a different stress position to other words.
Answer: D. congestion
