### a) Which of the following words has a different final consonant sound?

The correct answer is **d) cause**.

Explanation:

- **bridge** ends with the /dʒ/ sound (voiced palatal affricate).

- **rise** ends with the /z/ sound (voiced alveolar fricative).

- **please** ends with the /z/ sound (voiced alveolar fricative).

- **cause** ends with the /s/ sound (voiceless alveolar fricative).

Thus, **cause** has a different final consonant sound from the others.

### b) Which of the following words is correctly spelt?

The correct answer is **b) accommodate**.

Explanation:

- The correct spelling is **accommodate** (with two 'm's and two 'c's).
