For example: a) onea) Richard was now heir to the throne of the Angevin Empire. b) First catch your hare then cook him. c) A girl with dark shoulder-length hair entered the café and sat at the window table.

Правильный ответ: предложение а), слово heir (наследник) произносится |eə|, отличается по звучанию от слов в других предложениях.

Слова hare (заяц) из предложения b) и hair (волосы) из предложения c) произносятся одинаково - |heə|, они являются омонимами - одинаковыми по звучанию.
