Question

In the following question there is a certain relationship between the given words on one side of :: and one word is given on another side of :: while another word is to be found from the given alternatives having the same relation with this word as in the pair given; find the correct option-
Menu : Food :: Catalogue : ?

• A. Rack
• B. Newspaper
• C. Library
• D. Books

Hint:

Think of the relationship as "List of : Items on the list".
- Menu \(\rightarrow\) list of Food.
- Catalogue \(\rightarrow\) list of Books (or goods/services).
This helps avoid choosing "Library" (which is the location where books are kept, not the items listed in a catalogue).

Answer 1

The Correct Option is D

Step 1: Understanding the Question:
We need to identify the logical relationship between the first pair of words (Menu and Food) and apply the same analogy to find the missing word that relates to "Catalogue".

Step 2: Detailed Explanation:
- Let us analyze the first pair: "Menu : Food". A menu is a systematic, itemized list of all the food options available in a restaurant.
- Now apply this logic to the second pair: "Catalogue : ?". A catalogue is a systematic, itemized list of all the books available in a library, bookstore, or publisher's collection.
Therefore, "Catalogue" is to "Books" what "Menu" is to "Food".

Step 3: Final Answer:
(D) Books
