Question: 455
13. Chisel is to carving as
- A. thread is to sewing
- B. clay is to sculpting
- C. wheel is to driving
- D. blender is to mixing
Correct Answer: D
Explanation:
D is correct. This sequence presents an object-to-activity analogy, also known as a tool-to-function analogy. A chisel is used for carving in the same way that a blender is used for mixing. No other option provides an appropriate comparison. Choices A and B are both incorrect for the same reason; they are used respectively in each activity, but are not the tool used to perform the activity. Choice C is incorrect because a car is used for driving, and choice E is incorrect because a stove or oven is used for cooking.
