The selected answer is wrong:
the right answer is librarian because it is a noun and only nouns are stressed on the first syllabu while verbs are stressed on the second syllabu and the other options are verbs.
The answer is immunize. All other options are stressed on their second syllables from their beginning.
It's definitely not continous it is stressed at the second syllable the correct answer is immunize which is stressed at the first syllable. Make corrections Admin.
Let’s check where the primary stress falls in each word:
A. librarian → li-BRA-ri-an (2nd syllable)
B. immunize → i-MU-nize (2nd syllable)
C. militia → mi-LI-tia (2nd syllable)
D. continuous → con-TIN-u-ous (2nd syllable)
All four words have stress on the second syllable, not the first.
Correct conclusion: None of the options has stress on the first syllable.
