Tutor paper 3B Q18 help please

Post by bristolmum »

Find 2 words that do not go with these three and mark them both on the answer sheet:

watch
clock
timer
view
see

My DS's ans : 'clock and timer' but the correct answer is 'view and see'.

But Why?

I think my DS's answer is a better answer as watch, view and see are verbs while clock and timer are noun.

Please help so that I can explain to him why.

Not a very nice question as it obviously can be read either way, but "watch" is also the thing on your wrist...

Many thanks for your reassurance ToadMum.

I agree it is not a very nice question as it has two answers.
