Concept:The underlined letters in "scion" produce the consonant sound /s/.
The correct option must also contain the /s/ sound.
Explanation:"scion" is pronounced /ˈsaɪ.ən/.
The letters "sc" at the beginning are pronounced as /s/.
Now check each option:
A. "cars" is pronounced /kɑːz/ — its final sound is /z/, not /s/.
B. "barks" is pronounced /bɑːks/ — it ends with the cluster /ks/, which contains the /s/ sound.
C. "sure" is pronounced /ʃʊə/ — it begins with the sound /ʃ/, not /s/.
D. "zoo" is pronounced /zuː/ — it begins with /z/, not /s/.
Therefore, only "barks" has the same consonant sound /s/ as the underlined letters in "scion".
Answer:B. barks
