Question: 366
4. Solicitous is to caretaker as
- A. duplicitous is to ally
- B. pompous is to cheerleader
- C. wise is to sage
- D. patience is to doctor
Correct Answer: C
Explanation:
The answer is C
Solicitous (concerned about others) is a characteristic of a caretaker. Wise is a characteristic of a sage (a person of great wisdom).
If you don't know the meaning of solicitous, work backwards. None of the answer pairs other than choice (C) are by definition related, so you can eliminate choices (A), (B), (D), and (E). If there are words you do not know in the answer pairs, but you can use process of elimination to get to two or three answers, guess.
