Question: 361

14. Prevaricate is to lie as

  • A. procrastinate is to demonstrate
  • B. intimidate is to wander
  • C. implicate is to guess
  • D. dawdle is to delay

Correct Answer: D

Explanation:

The answer is D

Prevaricate is the same as lie. Dawdle is the same as delay.

If you don't know the meaning of prevaricate, work backwards. None of the answer pairs other than choice (D) are by definition related, so you can eliminate choices (A), (B), (C), and (E).
