Question: 322
5. Generous is to frugal as
- A. wasteful is to squander
- B. philanthropist is to miser
- C. tasteful is to garish
- D. gratify is to desire
Correct Answer: B
Explanation:
The correct answer is (B). The terms are antonyms. Generous is the opposite of frugal; a philanthropist is truly the opposite of a miser. The terms in choices (C) and (E) are also antonyms. When faced with questions in which the same relationship is maintained by a number of the choices, you must look for a relationship among all four terms. In this case, the theme to be carried through among the choices of the correct analogy is "money."
