Part 43· 2 steps

  1. Analyze the relationship between the words in each pair.

    • A. DOWN - FALL: These are synonyms, both meaning to move to a lower position.
    • B. HUGE - ENORMOUS: These are synonyms, both meaning very large.
    • C. INCREASE - REDUCE: These are antonyms (opposites), "increase" means to make larger, and "reduce" means to make smaller.
    • D. JOY - GLAD: These are synonyms, both related to happiness.
  2. Identify the pair that has a different relationship.

    Pairs A, B, and D consist of synonyms. Pair C consists of antonyms.

    The pair that is different is C. INCREASE - REDUCE.

Part 44· 3 steps

  1. Determine the relationship in the first part of the analogy.

    "BEGIN is to END" shows an opposite relationship. "BEGIN" is the start, and "END" is the finish.

  2. Apply the same opposite relationship to the second part of the analogy.

    We need to find the opposite of "SCATTER". "SCATTER" means to spread or disperse.

  3. Evaluate the options to find the opposite of "SCATTER".

    • A. COLLECT: To gather together. This is the opposite of scattering.
    • B. DISPERSE: To spread over a wide area. This is a synonym of scatter.
    • C. SPREAD: To extend over a large area. This is a synonym of scatter.
    • D. THROW: To propel something with force. This is not the opposite of scatter in this context.

    The word that completes the analogy is A. COLLECT.

Part 45· 2 steps

  1. Analyze the grammatical form of each word.

    • A. CAME: Simple past tense of "come".
    • B. LEFT: Simple past tense of "leave".
    • C. GONE: Past participle of "go".
    • D. WENT: Simple past tense of "go".
  2. Identify the word that is grammatically different.

    "CAME", "LEFT", and "WENT" are all simple past tense verbs. "GONE" is a past participle, which typically requires an auxiliary verb (e.g., "has gone", "had gone") to form a complete verb phrase, or can function as an adjective.

    The word that is different is C. GONE.
