发音与拼写Pronunciation & Spelling
None of these words rhyme with 'comparison' because the stressed syllable /pær/ does not match. They all share the '-son' spelling ending, but the ending pronunciation varies: in 'comparison' it is /sən/, while in 'person' and 'lesson' it is /sən/ (but note different preceding vowels), and in 'prison', 'season', 'reason', and 'treason' it is /zən/. Use them to practice the spelling pattern but be aware of the different sounds.
