Help with questions

Hi. Please help. Can you help me write the question that will elicit the answer "job" in this context. The context is that there are five pictures of people holding various types of jobs (in various occupations) like firefighter, dentist and teacher and I have to come up with the question that elicit the answer "job." What could be the question? Can it be "What is common to all the pictures?"

Also, please help me with this, too. Let's say you have a short dialogue like "Can you help me? and a blank one-word response" and you have to come up with the one-word response. I think possible responses include "Yes" and "Sure."
Now, how should I word the question? Can it be "What is an appropriate response?" Thank you in advance for your help.

Anonymous What could be the question? " That's as good as any, but you may not get the answer you want. I cannot think of any question, in fact, that will elicit the noun 'job' as a response.
