After reading each analogy, we can choose the following pairs to best complete the comparisons:
circle : sphere
pilot : airplane
tree : trunk
basement : attic
break : destroy
September : autumn
true : new
late : early
broccoli : vegetable
child : adult
<h3>What is an analogy?</h3>
An analogy draws a relationship between two different things. Let's take a look at numbers 7 and 8 to better understand what an analogy is.
In number 7, the pair "fade" and "maid" consists of completely different words that seem unrelated. However, if we pay attention, we will notice that the two words rhyme with each other.
Therefore, the second pair in the analogy should also consist of words whose relationship is rhyme. That is why "true" and "new" are the best option.
In number 8, the pair "graceful" and "clumsy" consists of words that are antonyms, that is, that have opposite meanings. Thus, the next pair should also consist of antonyms, which is the case with "late" and "early".
