Correct Answer: A

Explanation:

The correct answer is (A). The relationship is a very specific functional one. The WOODSMAN uses an AXE to cut; the CARPENTER uses a SAW to cut. In all the other choices, we are offered a worker and a tool of his trade, but none of these tools is used specifically for cutting.
