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.

A sedative relieves or reduces pain, similarly, solace provides relief from grief. Thus, the relationship is that of something that alleviates or soothes the second term.

The analogy compares types of food associated with animals: 'Mash' is a type of food prepared especially for horses, while 'Mast' refers to acorns and nuts eaten by pigs and some wild animals. Therefore, the correct analogy is 'Mash : Horse :: Mast : Pig'. The original answer 'Cow' is incorrect because mast is not specifically related to cows but to pigs and wild animals.

The analogy compares an attribute to an animal known for that attribute. 'Cunning' is associated with a 'Fox', so 'Timid' should be paired with an animal known for timidity, such as a 'Rabbit'.

The analogy compares a general category to a specific example: 'Ocean' is a category, and 'Pacific' is a specific ocean. Similarly, 'Island' is a category, and 'Borneo' is a specific island, making option D the correct answer.

A visitor is someone who receives an invitation to attend, similarly, a witness is someone who is typically summoned by a subpoena to appear in court. Thus, the relationship between visitor and invitation parallels that of witness and subpoena.

The analogy compares an animal to the sound it makes. A horse neighs, and similarly, a jackal howls. Therefore, 'Howl' is the correct sound associated with a jackal.

The analogy compares capital cities to their respective countries. Ottawa is the capital of Canada, and Canberra is the capital of Australia, making option D correct.

The analogy compares the function or medium associated with the first word. A bank deals with money, so transport deals with roads (the medium or means by which transport occurs). 'Goods' are what transport carries, not the medium itself, so 'Road' is the best fit.

Igloos are traditional snow houses associated with Canada, while Rondavels are traditional round huts commonly found in Africa. Thus, the analogy compares traditional dwellings to their respective regions.

The analogy compares a Nautilus to a Fish, where the Nautilus is a type of marine animal but not a fish. Similarly, a Teal is a type of duck, which is a waterfowl, not a chicken, dolphin, or pigeon. Therefore, the correct analogy is Teal : Duck.

An entrepreneur typically aims to earn profit, similarly, a scholar aims to gain knowledge. Thus, the relationship is between a person and their goal or outcome.

The analogy compares two related animals: Lemur is a type of primate like Monkey, and similarly, Rook is a type of bird like Crow. Hence, the correct answer is Crow.

The analogy 'Atom : Matter' means an atom is a basic unit that makes up matter. Similarly, a particle is a basic unit that makes up matter or substances. Among the options, 'Dust' is a collection of particles, not a basic unit. 'Proton' and 'Electron' are subatomic particles that make up atoms, not analogous to matter. 'Molecule' is made up of atoms, so it is not analogous to matter either. The best analogy is 'Particle : Dust' because dust is made up of many particles, just as matter is made up of many atoms. Therefore, the correct analogy is Atom : Matter :: Particle : Dust.

A coconut is enclosed by a shell, similarly, a letter is enclosed by an envelope. Thus, the relationship is that of an object and its enclosing container.

A rill is a small stream, and similarly, a pony is a small horse. The analogy compares a smaller form to its larger counterpart, making 'Horse' the correct answer.

An archipelago is a group or cluster of islands, just as a massif is a group or cluster of mountains. Therefore, the correct analogy is Archipelago : Islands :: Massif : Mountains.

A knife is used to cut, and similarly, an axe is used to chop. Both pairs show a tool and its typical action, making 'Chop' the correct analogy for 'Axe'.

The analogy 'Produce : Waste' relates to the process of creating or generating something and its resulting byproduct. Similarly, 'Contrast : Match' represents a relationship where two things are compared by highlighting differences (contrast) or similarities (match). Among the options, 'Match' is the best counterpart to 'Contrast' in analogy form.

Pongee is a type of fabric traditionally made from silk, characterized by its slubbed texture created by unevenly twisted yarns. The analogy 'Pongee : Silk' relates a product to its material. Shallot, however, is a vegetable composed of multiple thin, overlapping skins. Among the options, 'Stream' (D) metaphorically fits better as it can be associated with the natural flow and layering concept similar to the layers of a shallot, unlike 'Boat', 'Building', or 'Ship' which are man-made objects unrelated to shallots. The original analogy is flawed because shallot is not a material for making any of the options, but 'Stream' is the closest metaphorical match in the given choices.

The analogy compares opposite meanings (antonyms). "Insert" is the opposite of "Extract." Therefore, "Mighty" should be paired with its antonym "Feeble." Among the options, "Feeble" (option D) is the correct antonym of "Mighty." "Strong" (option B) is a synonym, not an antonym, so it is incorrect here.
