The speaker is talking about plans for the weekend and not showing anything and so the word must be sounds.

Hi
In Russian expression " looks interestingly " is often used in value " sounds interestingly " and no matters the speaker talking about something or showing anything :))

[Muain]

Why not looks interesting ?

[Nedvedetema]

I don't understand please someone explain more?

[Beeesneees]

In this particular test, you have to look at all the questions as a whole. Although 'looks' works grammatically, it does not fit in with the idea of talking about their weekend plans.
