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: Read the given pair.
The pair is Menu : Food.
Step 2: Name the relationship.
A menu is an organised list of the food a place offers, so the link is "list : items it lists."
Step 3: Move to the second pair.
We need a word that relates to Catalogue the same way.
Step 4: Define a catalogue.
A catalogue is an organised list of the books in a library or store.
Step 5: Test the options.
Rack, Newspaper, and Library are not the items being listed; only Books are the contents a catalogue lists.
Step 6: Confirm the parallel.
Menu lists Food just as Catalogue lists Books.
