From the words lettered A to D, choose the word that rhymes with the given word.
Trees

  1. free
  2. stress
  3. chess
  4. Breeze ✓
Explanation

Words rhyme when the vowel and the final sounds match. “Trees” is /triːz/.

“Breeze” is /briːz/, so it rhymes. “Free” has the same vowel but no /z/ ending. “Stress” and “chess” have a different vowel.
