Choose the option that has the same vowel sound as the one represented by the letter[s] underlined.flour

  1. flow
  2. floor
  3. flush
  4. flower ✓
Explanation

The letters “ou” in flour make the vowel sound /aʊ/, as in “now”.

flower is said the same way as flour, with the same /aʊ/ sound.

flow has /əʊ/, floor has /ɔː/ and flush has /ʌ/, so they do not match.
