Question:

Choose the pair of words from the given list which bears the same relationship to each other as in :

SOLITUDE : CHAOS

Options:

Thunder : Storm

Story : Tale

Daydream : Nightmare

Joyful : Blissful

Correct Answer:

Daydream : Nightmare

Explanation:

The answer is Daydream : Nightmare.

The words SOLITUDE and CHAOS are antonymous, meaning they have opposite meanings. Solitude is the state of being alone, while chaos is a state of disorder or confusion. The word Daydream is a pleasant and fanciful musing, while the word Nightmare is a terrifying dream. So, the relationship between Daydream and Nightmare is similar to the relationship between SOLITUDE and CHAOS.

The other options do not have a similar relationship. The word Thunder is a loud noise caused by lightning, while the word Storm is a period of bad weather with strong winds, rain, or snow. The word Story is a narrative account of events, while the word Tale is a long, often fictional story. The word Joyful means feeling or showing great happiness, while the word Blissful means experiencing great happiness or contentment.
