Show the answer and the worked solution
Correct answer: D. Nepal
Worked solution
- Delhi, Mumbai and Chennai are cities.
- Nepal is a country, not a city.
Answer: Nepal.
The idea
Watch the level of the category: city, state and country are different kinds of place, and mixing them is the usual trick.
Shortcut. Delhi, Mumbai and Chennai are Indian cities; 'Nepal' is a whole country (its matching city would be Kathmandu).
Common trap. "Delhi" — the capital among the cities, which feels special; but a capital is still a city, while Nepal is not a city at all.
