No sorry, I've never read the book

This is the only answer that is grammatically correct. Parentheses cannot just be place anywhere in a sentence. They are used to add extra information for clarity or information that is an aside). An aside is something that is not the main part of the discussion. In this sentence, the main point is that Mustufa ran the sprint races. The extra information is that he trained for the mid-distance race.

Answer:
part-to-whole relationship: tail:mouse / scale:crocodile
item-category relationship: Monday:weekday / Saturday:weekend
cause-and-effect relationship: cut:bleed / burn:irritate
Explanation:
In an analogy, we find a relationship between different things, something that connects them. Let's analyze the analogies above.
- A mouse is a whole that can be divided into several parts: ears, tails, paws, etc. The same goes for a crocodile: teeth, scales, stomach. Thus, with tail:mouse and scale:crocodile, we have a relationship of part to whole.
- There are different days in a week: Sunday, Monday, Tuesday, etc. Those days can be divided under different categories. Monday, for instance, can be categorized as a weekday. However, Saturday would be categorized under weekend since it is not a weekday. Thus, with Monday:weekday and Saturday:weekend, we have an item-category relationship.
- Finally, if you cut yourself, you will most likely bleed. Bleeding is the effect of being cut. Cutting is the cause of bleeding. The same goes for getting burned (cause) and the skin getting irritated (effect). Thus, with cut:bleed and burn:irritate, the relationship is of cause and effect.
