Horse : Pony : Mare :: Sheep : Lamb : ?

A
Sheep : Lamb : Goat
B
Lion : Cub : Den
C
Man : Child : Woman
D
Cat : Kitten : Puppy
Explanation and memory cue

The analogy compares a horse to a pony (an adult horse to a smaller or younger horse) and mare (a female horse). The pattern is adult animal : smaller/younger form : female of the species. Among the options, only option D (Cat : Kitten : Puppy) partially fits the pattern, but puppy is not a female cat, so it is not a perfect match. However, option A (Sheep : Lamb : Goat) is inconsistent because goat is a different animal, not a female sheep or a young sheep. The best analogy for Mare (female horse) would be a female form of the animal or a young form. Since none of the options perfectly match the pattern, the closest is option D, where kitten is the young cat, though puppy is unrelated. The original answer A is incorrect because goat is unrelated to sheep and lamb. Therefore, the correct answer is D.

Detect the analogy: Kennedy : Indira : Palme

A
They were Presidents.
B
They were Prime Ministers.
C
They were very popular among children.

John F. Kennedy was the President of the United States and was assassinated in 1963. Indira Gandhi was the Prime Minister of India and was assassinated in 1984 by her Sikh bodyguards. Olof Palme was the Prime Minister of Sweden and was assassinated in 1986. Therefore, all three leaders were assassinated, making option D the correct answer.

Option C is incorrect as there is no evidence that they were particularly popular among children.
