Analogies (Related Pair of Words)

The analogy compares a King to his Throne, where the Throne is the object the King rides or sits on symbolically. Similarly, a Rider rides a Horse. Therefore, the correct analogy is King : Throne :: Rider : Horse.

The analogy compares the relationship between a professional and their primary output or result. A doctor provides a diagnosis, similarly, a judge delivers a judgement. Hence, 'Judgement' is the correct answer.

The analogy compares a smaller natural landform to a larger one: a hill is a smaller form of a mountain. Similarly, a stream is a smaller natural water flow compared to a river. Therefore, 'Stream : River' is the correct analogy.

The analogy compares 'Jeopardy' to 'Peril', where 'Peril' is a synonym or closely related concept to 'Jeopardy'. Similarly, 'Jealousy' is most closely related to 'Envy' among the options, as both are emotions involving desire for what others have.

A tree is a single unit that collectively forms a forest, similarly, grass is a single unit that collectively forms a field. Therefore, the correct analogy is 'Grass : Field'.

Darwin is famously associated with the theory of evolution, just as Archimedes is famously associated with the principle of buoyancy. Therefore, the analogy is Darwin : Evolution :: Archimedes : Buoyancy.

A sculptor creates a statue, so similarly, a poet creates a verse. The relationship is creator to creation, making 'verse' the correct answer.

Oxygen supports burning, so the analogy implies that carbon dioxide has the opposite effect, which is to extinguish fire. Therefore, 'Extinguish' correctly completes the analogy.

The analogy compares a mild form of weather to a more intense form: Breeze is a mild wind, Cyclone is a severe wind. Similarly, Drizzle is a light rain, and Downpour is a heavy rain. Therefore, the correct answer is D, Downpour.

The analogy compares a person to a related concept: a 'Hermit' is associated with 'Solitude' (a state or condition). Similarly, an 'Intruder' is associated with 'Privacy' (the state that is violated by an intruder). Therefore, the correct answer is 'Privacy'.

In the analogy, 'Bank' is a landform beside a 'River'. Similarly, a 'Beach' is a landform beside the 'Coast'. 'Sea' is a body of water like a river, so it does not fit the analogy as well as 'Beach'.

The analogy compares the material from which an object is primarily made. A candle is made from wax, similarly, paper is made from pulp. Hence, the correct answer is 'Pulp'.

The analogy compares 'Errata' (errors) in 'Books' to 'Flaws' in 'Speech'. Errata are errors found in books, so the corresponding item for flaws is 'Speech', where flaws can occur in spoken language. 'Manuscripts' or 'Charter' do not directly relate to flaws as errata relate to books.

The analogy compares a less controlled or less fluent form of an action to its standard form. 'Scribble' is a messy or hurried form of 'Write', similarly, 'Stammer' is a hesitant or broken form of 'Speak'.

Yaks belong to the genus Bos within the subfamily Bovinae, making them close relatives of domestic cattle, including cows and oxen. Oxen are typically castrated male cattle, and cows are female cattle, all belonging to the species Bos taurus or closely related species. Antelopes belong to different tribes and subfamilies within the Bovidae family and are not as closely related to yaks as cows and oxen are. Therefore, the best analogy is 'Yak : Oxen' because yaks and oxen are both bovines closely related within the same genus, whereas antelopes are more distantly related.

Illiteracy is a problem that education can solve, similarly, a flood is a problem that a dam can help control or prevent. Therefore, the analogy is correct with 'Dam' as the answer.

The analogy compares a currency to its country: Rupee is the currency of India, and Yen is the currency of Japan. Therefore, the correct answer is Japan.

Yeast is a fungus used in bread-making to ferment and cause the dough to rise. Similarly, bacteria are responsible for fermenting milk to produce curd. Hence, the correct analogy is Bread : Yeast :: Curd : Bacteria.

A 'cub' is a young lion, and similarly, a 'colt' is a young stallion. Therefore, the correct analogy is 'Colt : Stallion'.

The analogy compares synonyms: 'Genuine' is synonymous with 'Authentic', and similarly, a 'Mirage' is synonymous with an 'Illusion'. Hence, 'Illusion' is the correct answer.

The analogy compares 'Fossils' to 'Creatures' as preserved remains to their original forms. Similarly, 'Mummies' are preserved remains of 'Human Beings'. Thus, the correct answer is B.

Naphthalene is a chemical obtained from coal tar, so the analogy is about a product derived from a source. Dyes are derived from chemicals, making 'Chemicals' the correct answer. Petroleum, oils, and carbon do not fit the analogy as directly.

The analogy compares a snake to its fang, which is a part used for defense or attack. Similarly, a bee uses its sting for defense or attack, making 'Sting' the correct analogous term.

The analogy compares 'Forecast' to 'Future' as an action related to a time frame (forecasting is predicting the future). Similarly, 'Regret' is an emotion related to something that has already happened, i.e., the past. Therefore, the correct analogy is 'Regret : Past'. While 'Atone' is an action that may follow regret, it is not the direct counterpart in the analogy structure, which pairs a concept with its related time frame or context.

The analogy compares an action to the body part it involves. 'Squint' is an action performed with the 'Eye', so similarly, 'Squeeze' is an action typically performed with the 'Hand'.
