  • A. Perseverance : Achievement
  • B. Run : Jump
  • C. Examination : Qualification

352. Choose analogous pair: Dog : Kennel

  • A. Horse : Carriage
  • B. Sheep : Flock
  • C. Cow : Barn
  • D. Sports : Stadium

Explanation: A kennel is the usual shelter for a dog, while a barn is a usual shelter for a cow. A flock is a group of sheep, not their dwelling.

353. Choose analogous pair: Hillock : Mountain

  • A. Hare : Animal
  • B. Ant : Elephant
  • C. Bush : Forest
  • D. Grass : Tree

Explanation: A hillock is a small or low hill, and a bush can be viewed as a smaller counterpart of a forest in this size-based analogy. The remaining pairs do not show a small-to-large version of the same kind of thing as clearly.

Correct answer: Bush : Forest

354. Choose analogous pair: Fish : Aquarium

  • A. Teacher : Hostel
  • B. Bee : Apiary

Correct answer: Bee : Apiary

  • A. Hut : Roof
  • B. Building : Floor
  • C. Bed : Bedsheet

  • A. Devotion : Blessing
  • B. Excitement : Frenzy

  • A. Shiv : Creation
  • B. Shakespeare : Drama

  • A. Train : Tracks
