Concept:The underlined letters "ch" in "choose" represent the consonant sound /tʃ/, a voiceless palato-alveolar affricate.
Explanation:Pronounce "choose": it is /tʃuːz/.
The key sound after the initial position is /tʃ/, same as in "church" or "watch".
Now compare each given option:
A. "chimera" begins with the /k/ sound, not /tʃ/.
B. "chic" has the /ʃ/ sound at the end, not /tʃ/.
C. "soldier" contains the /dʒ/ sound, which is voiced and different from /tʃ/.
D. "batch" ends with /bætʃ/, and the final sound is /tʃ/.
Even though it is written as "tch", the consonant sound is identical to the "ch" in "choose".
Therefore, the word that shares the same consonant sound is "batch".
Answer:D. batch
