Questions

Why are there no pictures until I answer?

A picture would give the answer away. Reading the Spanish cold is the point — it makes you retrieve the meaning from memory, which is the step that actually builds recall.

How does this help me learn buildings in Spanish?

Recognising that three words share a topic and a fourth doesn't means you have to know all four, not just one. It tests the edges of your buildings vocabulary rather than the middle.
