Question: 344

12. Stagnant is to pond as

  • A. sandy is to river
  • B. noisy is to sheep
  • C. flowing is to stream
  • D. oceanic is to tide

Correct Answer: C

Explanation:

The correct answer is (C). This analogy is based on characteristics of bodies of water. A pond may be stagnant; a stream is likely to flow. Sheep may be noisy but since there are two choices that involve characteristics, you must choose the one that is closest in other aspects to the first set of terms, that is, the one involving water.
