@dxs I know what you mean. It is stupid. It requires your neurons to fire in exactly the same way as the person who wrote the question AND came up with the answer.
It’s the same with
Which word does not belong with the other two?
a.cat
b. near
c. sun
Well, are we talking distance? In which case “cat” doesn’t belong. Except I have a cat right on top of me.
Are we talking about warmth? In which case “near” doesn’t belong (unless I go outside and get near the warm air outside.)
Are we talking about physical things? In which case “near” doesn’t belong. Well, not exactly. Unless you’re near a bowling ball which falls on your head.
