Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 3
The correct answer is Option (3) → (A) - (IV), (B) - (III), (C) - (II), (D) - (I)
Many nouns for male and female animals and persons are different words, not the same word with a feminine ending, so each pair has to be known.
(A) Gander — this matches (IV) Goose. A gander is a male goose; the female keeps the name goose.
(B) Colt — this matches (III) Filly. A colt is a young male horse and a filly a young female horse.
(C) Wizard — this matches (II) Witch. Both are people believed to have magical powers; wizard is the male and witch the female.
(D) Bull — this matches (I) Cow. The bull is the male of cattle and the cow the female.
