Choose the word that correctly completes the analogy. Common: scarce ::human-made:
Neporo4naja [7]

The correct answer would be D.natural. As you may have infered, both pairs of words are opposites or are the antonym of each other. The term human-made is a synonim to "man-made" which is defined bythe  Oxford dictionary as "<em>Made or caused by human beings (as opposed to occurring or being made naturally)</em>" and natural, when used as an adjective has the following meaning <em>"Existing in or derived from nature; not made or caused by humankind." </em>it is safe to state that the only coherent answer is in fact letter D.


When analyzing analogies such as the one presented before one must consider the pattern that reveals itself in the first pair of words. They could be synonims, antonyms, adjectives, pronouns, etc. The important thing to remember is to take into consideration every aspect of the words in order to find the pattern, for example the construction, the meaning, the use, etc.

The Flight of Icarus Compare and Contrast Paragraph.
Wewaii [24]
The story of Icarus is one of those legends of Greek mythology that fascinates audiences especially because of the character’s desire to go beyond human boundaries as well as for the tragic consequences this brought about.
The myth of Daedalus and Icarus tells the story of a father and a son who used wings to escape from the island of Crete. Icarus has become better-known as the flyer who fell from the sky when the wax that joined his wings was melted by the heat of the sun.
The legend of the mythological Icarus is closely related to a number of other narrations centered on Crete, the place where Dedalus worked as a craftsman and built a maze to keep the feared Minotaur under control.
The tragic fall of Icarus begins with his father, in fact, he suffered and paid for Daedalus deeds.
