Choose the best answer for the analogy.
tired : exhausted ::<\/p>\n\n\n\n

B.) game : fun
C.) daisy : sunflower
D.) flat : sloped
E.) pleased : overjoyed<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Correct Answer and Explanation is:<\/mark><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The best answer for the analogy tired : exhausted<\/strong> is E.) pleased : overjoyed<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Explanation:<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The analogy presented compares two pairs of words where the second word in each pair represents an intensified or heightened state of the first word.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n
  1. Tired and Exhausted<\/strong>: The word “tired” refers to a state of fatigue or weariness that is common after exertion or lack of rest. When someone is “exhausted,” they are not just tired; they are in a more extreme state of fatigue, often implying complete depletion of energy or strength. This relationship exemplifies how “exhausted” intensifies the meaning of “tired.”<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  2. Pleased and Overjoyed<\/strong>: Similarly, the word “pleased” indicates a state of satisfaction or happiness. However, “overjoyed” is a much stronger emotion, suggesting an overwhelming sense of joy and elation. Just as “exhausted” is an intensified form of “tired,” “overjoyed” is an intensified form of “pleased.”<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

    The other options do not fit this pattern of intensity:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      \n
    • B.) Game : Fun<\/strong>: While a game can be fun, the relationship does not suggest a degree of intensity; they are simply related concepts, not one being a heightened state of the other.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    • C.) Daisy : Sunflower<\/strong>: This pair represents two different types of flowers, without any implication of intensity or heightened meaning.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    • D.) Flat : Sloped<\/strong>: This pair describes opposite physical states or characteristics, rather than a gradient of intensity.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

      In summary, both pairs (tired : exhausted)<\/strong> and (pleased : overjoyed)<\/strong> depict a progression from a lesser state to a greater one, making E.) pleased : overjoyed<\/strong> the best answer for the analogy.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
