Answer 1

An analogy is a comparison between two pairs of words that have a similar relationship. In this exercise, you need to find the word pair that has a similar relationship to the capitalized word pair.

Step-by-step explanation:

An analogy is a comparison between two pairs of words that have a similar relationship. In this exercise, you need to find the word pair that has a similar relationship to the capitalized word pair. Let's take question 1 as an example:

APPEASE: HUNGER::

(A) sell: merchant

(B) bake: baker

(C) strike: egg

(D) cook: pot

(E) toss: coin

In this analogy, the relationship between 'appease' and 'hunger' is that 'appease' satisfies 'hunger' or takes away the feeling of hunger. Similarly, the relationship between the other word pairs should have the first word satisfying the second word in some way. By analyzing the options, we can see that (B) 'bake: baker' has a similar relationship because 'bake' satisfies 'baker' by providing them with a job.

Answer: (B) bake: baker
