Choose the pair that best expresses the same relationship as:SENTINEL : WATCH
Show Hint
When two nouns appear (e.g., \textit{sentinel : watch}), check if the second is a \textbf{duty/purpose}. Prefer choices where the second word states the agent’s \textbf{function}, not a tool or an occasional event.
Step 1: Define the core term A sentinel is a person that watches/guards. The relationship is: agent (person) \(\Rightarrow\) core function (verb). Step 2: Analyze choices
(a) Artist : Paint — Agent \(\Rightarrow\) action, but "paint" represents the medium/action of creation; not a primary protective duty like "watch." This is a weak fit.
(b) Soldier : Battle — Agent \(\Rightarrow\) event; "battle" is an event, not the soldier's primary duty. The relationship is less direct.
(c) Guard : Protect — Agent \(\Rightarrow\) core duty}. This directly mirrors sentinel : watch. \(\Rightarrow\) Correct answer.
(d) None of these — Incorrect since (c) is a perfect match. Step 3: Conclusion
Option (c) accurately reflects the agent \(\Rightarrow\) essential duty} relationship.
\[
\boxed{\text{Answer = (c) Guard : Protect}}
