Question: 526

9. Ice is to slippery as rug is to:

  • A. Soft
  • B. Carpet
  • C. Floor
  • D. Hard

Correct Answer: A

Explanation:

Slippery is an adjective that describes the surface of ice. The answer is best filled by a word that describes rugs, such as soft (Choice A). Carpet, Choice B, is a synonym for a rug rather than an adjective that describes rugs. Therefore, that is an incorrect choice. Rugs cover the floor, Choice C, so again, this is not an adjective for a rug and not the correct answer. Hard, Choice D, is an adjective, but the opposite of describing a rug. Mop, Choice E, is not correct, as it does not describe rugs.
