Analogies (Related Pair of Words)

The analogy compares Hong Kong to China as a region to its country; similarly, Vatican is related to Rome as a city-state within the city of Rome. Therefore, the correct answer is Rome.

A planet moves along an orbit, and similarly, a projectile moves along a trajectory. Both 'orbit' and 'trajectory' describe the path followed by the object in motion, making 'Trajectory' the correct analogous term.

The analogy 'Reading : Knowledge :: Work : ?' is about the relationship where the first word leads to or produces the second word. Reading leads to gaining knowledge, similarly, work leads to gaining experience. Therefore, 'Experience' is the best fit for the analogy, as it mirrors the process-outcome relationship seen in the first pair. 'Experiment' is not the best fit because work does not necessarily lead to an experiment, but rather to experience gained through effort and practice.

The analogy compares a singular item to a collective noun representing a group of such items. 'Grain' is a single unit, and 'Stock' is a collection of grains. Similarly, a 'Stick' is a single unit, and a 'Bundle' is a collection of sticks. Therefore, 'Bundle' is the correct answer.

Tectonics is the science or process of building (structures of the earth's crust), so the analogous relationship is that taxidermy is the art or process of stuffing (preserving animals by stuffing their skins). Hence, 'Stuffing' is the correct analogy for taxidermy.

The analogy pairs a positive outcome with its typical emotional response: Victory leads to Encouragement. Similarly, Failure typically leads to Sadness, making 'Sadness' the best fit to complete the analogy.

The analogy compares 'Sorrow' to 'Death' as a cause or association, and similarly, 'Happiness' is associated with 'Birth'. Therefore, 'Birth' is the correct answer.

Wine is made from grapes, and vodka is commonly made from potatoes (among other ingredients). Therefore, the correct analogy is Wine : Grapes :: Vodka : Potatoes.

The analogy compares a group container for items: fruits are kept in a basket, similarly, fishes are commonly found in a river. 'Rip' is not a container or collective noun, 'Seine' is a river name but less general, and 'Rill' is a small stream, less commonly used. Therefore, 'River' is the best fit.

The analogy compares 'War' to its direct consequence 'Death'. Similarly, 'Smoke' is most directly caused by 'Fire'. Therefore, the correct answer is 'Fire'.

The analogy compares opposites: 'Deep' is the opposite of 'Shallow'. Similarly, the opposite of 'Freedom' is 'Prison'. Therefore, 'Prison' is the correct answer.

Taxonomy is the science of classification, and pedology is the science of soil. Thus, the analogy is Taxonomy : Classification :: Pedology : Soil.

The analogy compares the relationship between 'Touch' and 'Feel' to that between 'Greet' and 'Acknowledge'. Touch is an action that leads to feeling, similarly, greeting is an action that leads to acknowledging someone. Therefore, 'Acknowledge' is the correct answer.
