Question

If ‘\(\rightarrow\)’ denotes increasing order of intensity, then the meaning of the words {charm} ---- {enamor} ------ {bewitch} is analogous to {bored} ----- _________ ---- {weary} . Which one of the given options is appropriate to fill the blank?

• A. jaded
• B. baffled
• C. dead
• D. worsted

Hint:

To solve analogy questions, carefully analyze the relationship or progression between the given elements. Look for changes in intensity, sequence, or meaning to identify the most suitable option.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is A

The question presents two analogies, each depicting a progression of intensity or depth in a specific context. 
- In the first analogy  {charm} -------- {enamor} ----------- {bewitch} , the progression shows increasing levels of attraction or captivation, where "bewitch" represents the strongest intensity. 
- The second analogy {bored} ________ ------ {weary}  mirrors this concept, reflecting increasing levels of disinterest or fatigue. 
The word jaded aptly fits between bored and weary, as it denotes a state of tiredness or overexposure that transitions into weariness. This progression aligns perfectly with the given pattern. Final Answer: {(1) jaded}
