Which item does not belong in the set: Summer, Winter, Autumn, Laptop?

• A. Laptop
• B. Autumn
• C. Winter
• D. Summer

Answer: (A)

Think about grouping items by a shared category. Summer, Winter, and Autumn are all seasons of the year, names we use for times of year and the weather patterns that come with them. Laptop is a piece of technology used for computing, not a season. Because it doesn’t belong to the same category as the other three, it’s the odd one out.
