 * Analogies /15 **

An analogy is a type of word problem that makes a comparison. It is made up of two word pairs, like this:

BLACK : WHITE :: hot : _ __Your goal in solving an analogy is to find a word that correctly completes the second pair. At first the words in an analogy may seem to have nothing to do with one another, but the words are always related. Both sets of words will have the same kind of relationship. To solve the analogy you need to find out what that relationship is. Read the analogy like this:

"Black is to White as Hot is to__ _.'" Ask yourself: What is the relationship between //balck// and //white//? They are antonyms—words that have opposite meanings. The second pair of words must also be antonyms (opposites). Fill in the blank with a word that means the opposite of hot, and you've solved the analogy. Cold is the best answer.

Besides antonyms, the word pairs in an analogy could have other types of relationships: Here's another example:
 * **synonyms**, or words that have the same or similar meanings, as in WORK : LABOR
 * **descriptive**, in which one word describes the other word, as in BLUE : SKY
 * **part to whole**, in which one word is a part or piece of the other, as in ARM : BODY
 * **item to category**, in which one word names something that falls into the group named by the other word, as in MILK : BEVERAGE

CHICK : CHICKEN :: calf : ___ The analogy is read "Chick is to chicken as calf is to 'blank.'" The first pair of words is not related in any of the ways listed above. Try reading the analogy as a sentence that expresses the relationships between the words: "A chick is a young chicken, like a calf is a young . . ."? Cow is the best answer.
