not a class of word.

the eye.
114. d. Rye, sourdough, and pumpernickel are types of
bread. A loaf is not a bread type.

measure length.
116. a. Freeway, interstate, and expressway are all highspeed
highways; a street is for low-speed traffic.
117. b. Dodge, duck, and avoid are all synonyms
meaning evade. Flee means to run away from.
118. c. Heading, body, and closing are all parts of a letter;
the letter is the whole, not a part.
