Question

Modern : I :: II : Old

I. (A) Ancient (B) Death (C) Famous (D) Civilization

II. (P) Industrialisation (Q) Young (R) Fashion (S) Western

• A. AQ
• B. AS
• C. BP
• D. CR

Hint:

Look for a consistent opposite-pair relationship on both sides of the analogy.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is A

The analogy compares two words that sit at opposite ends of the same idea. Modern and Old work as an opposite pair based on age, so we need a similar opposite pair from sets I and II.

1. Option A (AQ: Ancient, Young): This gives Modern : Ancient :: Young : Old. Modern shifts to Ancient with time, and Young shifts to Old with time too, so both sides move the same way.
2. Option B (AS: Ancient, Western): This gives Modern : Ancient :: Western : Old. Western describes a style, not an age, so it does not connect to Old the way Ancient connects to Modern.
3. Option C (BP: Death, Industrialisation): This gives Modern : Death :: Industrialisation : Old, mixing unrelated ideas that share no working link.
4. Option D (CR: Famous, Fashion): This gives Modern : Famous :: Fashion : Old, again pairing words with no real relationship.

Only option A keeps a consistent age based link on both sides: Modern relates to Ancient the way Young relates to Old.

Let's summarize:

• Check every option by placing it back into the full four term analogy, not just at a glance.

So the answer is option A.
