Question: 512

10. Hang is to dry as soak is to

  • A. vanquish
  • B. annihilate
  • C. saturate
  • D. roust

Correct Answer: C

Explanation:

C is correct. This type of sequence is referred to as an activity-to-result analogy. One way to dry something (clothes, for instance) is by hanging them. Therefore, hang is the activity and dry is the result. Similarly, when you soak something in water (say, a towel) the result is that you saturate it.
