Green: MEASURING DEVICES
A CLOCK measures time, a COMPASS indicates direction, a RULER measures length, and a SCALE measures weight or another quantity.
Blue: PARTS OF A FLIGHT
In sequence, a plane can TAXI, TAKEOFF, CLIMB, and eventually TOUCHDOWN. These words describe events or stages of a flight.
Rank #2
Purple: BIKE ACCESSORIES
A BASKET, BELL, RACK, and REFLECTOR are accessories that can be fitted to a bicycle.
A likely red herring
TOUCHDOWN, GOAL, and BASKET can all suggest sports scoring. That apparent connection has only three words, though, and GOAL also fits the intention group. Check for a complete set of four before committing to a tempting partial pattern.
