I would also be confused af. First, I would think it wants me to tap objects with a somewhat glossy surface, even though all of them actually reflect light. But having sorted the first trick in this question, I am now confronted with two other questions: is a body of water considered an "object"? Also, are those actually photos of a river or are they illustrations of a river? They don't look realistic to me... Because if they're illustrations then they wouldn't be particularly more reflective than anything else in this set of images

I hate these things

It looks like they have an AI generate all of the valid images.

They probably have a database of images and then come up with some BS prompt and having the AI generate the valid responses. But because everyone involved here seems to be an idiot, the prompts are stupid.
