Analogy

Question:

In the following question find out the alternative which will replace the question mark.

Safe : Secure :: Protect : ?

Options:

Lock

Sure

Guard

Expose

Correct Answer:

Guard

Explanation:

The answer is OPTION 3 - Guard.

The analogy is synonym. Safe and secure are synonyms, and protect and guard are synonyms. The other options do not make sense in the context of the analogy.

  • Lock is a type of security device, but it is not a synonym for protect.
  • Sure means certain, but it is not a synonym for protect.
  • Expose is opposite of protect so is not the answer.
