English Olympiad Test: Analogy- 1 - Class 10 MCQ

Answer: B. Leader

Explanation:
The analogy can be understood as follows:

- A doctor is a professional who provides medical care and is usually in a higher position than a nurse. A nurse is a healthcare professional who assists and supports the doctor in providing medical care. Thus, a nurse follows the instructions given by the doctor.

- Similarly, a leader is a person who provides guidance, direction, and support to a group of people or an organization. A follower is a person who supports and follows the instructions, ideas, or policies of the leader.

Hence, the correct option to complete the analogy is:

Doctor : Nurse :: Leader : Follower

Explanation:

- Fear is an emotional response to a perceived Threat.
- Similarly, Anger is an emotional response to a perceived Provocation.

A. Compulsion is not related to the cause of anger.
B. Panic is another form of fear, not a cause of anger.
D. Force can sometimes cause anger, but provocation is a more general term that better fits the analogy.

Explanation:

Cup : Lip :: Bird : Beak

The analogy is based on the relationship between the objects and the parts that interact with them. In this case, the relationship is based on the part that comes into contact with or is used to consume something.

- A cup is a container that holds liquid, and the lip is the part of the body that comes into contact with the cup when drinking from it.
- Similarly, a bird is an animal that consumes food, and the beak is the part of its body that comes into contact with the food when eating or picking it up.

Therefore, the correct option to complete the analogy is:
D. Beak

- A stream is a small, narrow body of flowing water.
- A river is a large, wide body of flowing water.

Therefore, the analogy is:
