Let me work through each group of words and put them in alphabetical order.
Group 1: chocolate, biscuit, pizza, spaghetti
- Looking at the first letters: b (biscuit), c (chocolate), p (pizza), s (spaghetti)
- Alphabetical order: b, c, p, s
- So: biscuit, chocolate, pizza, spaghetti
Group 2: math, English, science, geography
- Looking at the first letters: e (English), g (geography), m (math), s (science)
- Alphabetical order: e, g, m, s
- So: English, geography, math, science
Group 3: building, road, lane, apartment
- Looking at the first letters: a (apartment), b (building), l (lane), r (road)
- Alphabetical order: a, b, l, r
- So: apartment, building, lane, road
Group 4: phones, camera, computer, laptop
- Looking at the first letters: c (camera), c (computer), l (laptop), p (phones)
- For camera and computer, I need to look at the second letter:
- camera: c-a-m-e-r-a
- computer: c-o-m-p-u-t-e-r
- Second letters: a vs o → a comes before o
- So: camera, computer, laptop, phones
