Grunt : Bray : Bleat — From the options, pick the item that is also a specific animal sound (reject misspellings or generic cries).

Difficulty: Easy

Correct Answer: Bark

Explanation:


Introduction / Context:
'Grunt', 'bray', and 'bleat' are established names for animal sounds (pig/camel, donkey, sheep/goat). We must select another specific animal-vocalization term and avoid generic or misspelled words.



Given Data / Assumptions:

  • We are preserving the class of specific animal sound words.
  • Minor errors may appear in options; recovery policy prefers not to reinterpret unless necessary.
  • Generic human-oriented cries should be rejected.


Concept / Approach:
'Bark' is the standard sound made by a dog, fitting the exact lexical class. 'Crock' appears to be a misspelling of 'croak'; as written, it does not match a standard sound term. 'Cry' and 'scream' are generic, not specific animal-sound labels used in GK lists.



Step-by-Step Solution:
1) Keep the class: specific animal vocalizations.2) Select the option that unambiguously fits: 'Bark'.3) Reject generic/misspelled items.



Verification / Alternative check:
Common lists: dog–bark, donkey–bray, goat/sheep–bleat, frog–croak, pig–grunt; validates the choice.



Why Other Options Are Wrong:

  • Crock: Misspelling; as-is not a valid sound term.
  • Cry/Scream: Generic actions; not canonical animal-sound labels.
  • None of these: Incorrect because 'Bark' is correct.


Common Pitfalls:
Correcting misspelled options automatically; unless specified, stick to given spellings.



Final Answer:
Bark
