Question: 288

1. Beg is to borrow as offer is to

  • A. lender
  • B. bank
  • C. lend
  • D. repay

Correct Answer: C

Explanation:

The correct answer is (C). The relationship is not of precise synonyms, but it is close. Both beg and borrow have to do with ask for and take. Both offer and lend have to do with give. Repay also has to do with give, but it implies a previous activity not implied in the relationship of beg and borrow.
