Answer:
1. joyería
2. quedar
3. cuenta
4. doblar la esquina
5. cobrar un cheque
6. ser gratis
Step-by-step explanation:
In this exercise, you're asked to identify which word doesn't have anything in common with the rest of the words in each given group.
1. A pastelería is the place where you can buy cakes, an heladería is where you buy ice-cream, and a panadería sells bread. The joyería sales jewelry, so it doesn't have anything in common with the other three words, which are referring to the names of the stores where you can buy specific food items.
2. A banco is a bank, ahorrar is to save, quedar is to stay and cobrar is to collect the money that you are owed. All of these words except quedar make reference to actions or places involving money.
3. An esquina is a corner, a cuenta is an account, a dirección is an address and a cuadra is a block. All of these words except cuenta refer to places related to people's places of residence.
4. Doblar la esquina means to turn around a corner, pagar al contado means to pay in full price (no use of credit nor owing any amount for later), pedir un préstamo means to ask for a loan, and pagar a plazos means that you will be paying your debt in different amounts in a defined time lapse. Doblar la esquina doesn't have anything related to the rest of the words, which refer to money and payments.
5. Echar al buzón means to put something into the mailbox, poner un sello means to put a stamp, cerrar un sobre is to close an envelope and cobrar un cheque means to go change a check for the amount of money it represents. Everything except for cobrar un cheque relates to mailing actions.
6. Cruzar la calle is to cross the street, ir al este means go east, ser gratis means that something is free, and quedar enfrente de means that something is in front of something else. All of these phrases, except for ser gratis, refer to places and relative positions.
