Question: 354
IMPORTANT : PIVOTAL
A. stern : draconian
B. copious : thorough
C. minimal : voluminous
D. salient : compulsory
E. impetuous : spontaneous
Answer: A
This is a "form of" (degree or extent) analogy. PIVOTAL means "extremely IMPORTANT", just as draconian
means "extremely stern". The analogy is based on degree.
Question: 355
TEACHER : INSTRUCTION
A. lawyer : crime
B. army : regiment
C. doctor : disease
D. student : learning
E. guard : protection
Answer: E
This is an "inherent function" analogy. The function of a TEACHER is to provide INSTRUCTION for another;
similarly, the function of a guard is to provide protection for another. As for choice (D), although the "function" of
a student might be said to learn, it is not to provide learning for another. So choice (E) is not as strong an analogy
as choice (D).
Question: 356
COG : WATCH
A. fish : school
B. screen : television
C. lawyer : jury
D. manager : bureaucracy
E. seasoning : recipe
Answer: D
This is a "part-to-whole" analogy. A COG (gear or gear-tooth) is one of several types of components that together
make a WATCH operate; similarly, a manager is one of many types of workers who contribute to the operation of a
bureaucracy (a large, structured organization).
Question: 357
ARCHITECT : CREATIVE
A. partisan : impartial
B. traitor : disloyal
C. soldier : obedient
D. consumer : prosperous
E. prisoner : rebellious
Answer: B
This is as "ideal characteristic" analogy. Ideally, an ARCHITECT is CREATIVE; similarly, an ideal soldier is one
who is obedient; that is, one who obeys the orders of a superior officer. Choice (B) is incorrect because disloyalty
is not just an ideal characteristic of a traitor; it is the defining characteristic.
Question: 358
DESIGNATION : STIGMA
A. odor : fragrance
B. circumstance : predicament
C. legislation : statute
D. advice : command
E. falsehood : lie
Answer: B
This is a "negative form of" analogy. A STIGMA (mark or sign of disgrace) is an unwanted DESIGNATION.
Similarly, a predicament (difficult situation) is an unwanted circumstance.
Question: 359
OSCILLATE : PENDULUM
A. obligate : promise
B. swim : pool
C. purchase : product
D. shake : earthquake
E. travel : automobile
Answer: E
This is an "inherent function" analogy. A PENDULUM is designed to OSCILLATE (move back and forth);
similarly, an automobile is designed to travel.
Question: 360
SONG : SERENADE
A. appointment : tryst
B. play : vignette
C. memorandum: letter
D. arrangement : commitment
E. book : novel
Answer: A
This is a "type of" (special category) analogy. A SERENADE is a special kind of SONG, one sung by a lover to his
beloved, sometimes in secret; similarly, a tryst is a special kind of appointment, one made by lovers, often in secret.
Question: 361
HAND : GNARLED
A. tree : tall
B. foot : cramped
C. flower : crushed
D. brow : creased
E. tire : flat
Answer: D
This is a type of "symptom or manifestation" analogy. A HAND may become GNARLED (knotted and twisted) with
age, just as a brow may become creased
(wrinkled or ridged) with age. Gnarls and creases are each a manifestation of gradual deterioration. Since a tire
goes flat abruptly and for one of many possible reasons, choice (E) is not as strong an analogy as choice (D).
Question: 362
DAM : DELUGE
A. treat : disease
B. settle : dispute
C. lock : theft
D. harvest : crop
E. assemble : pieces
Answer: C
This is an "operates against" (prevention) analogy. You DAM (a body of water) to prevent a DELUGE (sudden,
enormous flow); similarly, you lock something like a door or a safe in order to prevent a theft.
Question: 363
WAR : OFFENSIVE
A. school : student
B. waterfall : river
C. slumber : dream
D. stadium : soccer
E. game : poker
Answer: C
This is an "environment for" analogy. An OFFENSIVE (a noun here) is an event ” a planned attack ” that typically
occurs during a WAR. Similarly, a dream is an event that typically occurs during slumber (deep sleep). As for
choice (D), soccer is an event that might take place in a stadium. But to say that soccer usually occurs in a stadium
would be an overstatement. Also, a stadium is a physical place, whereas WAR and slumber are events.
Question: 364
SCALE : TONE
A. spectrum : color
B. texture : sensation
C. wave : frequency
D. prism : hue
E. form : shape
Answer: A
This is a "part-to-whole" analogy. A musical SCALE is comprised of a series of TONES that are arranged in a
fixed sequence; similarly, the spectrum is comprised of a series of colors arranged in a particular sequence.
Question: 365
SANDAL : FOOTPRINT
A. sock : carpet
B. river : gorge
C. galosh : puddle
D. cleat : turf
E. boat : wake
Answer: E
This is a "symptom or sign" analogy. A SANDAL leaves behind it a FOOTPRINT that traces the sandal’s path;
similarly, a boat leaves behind it a wake that traces the boat’s path.

User: Júlia***** I spent enough time studying the material and passed the graduate record examination (verbal) exam with good marks. Although these materials are based on the actual exam content, I do not understand people who complain about the graduate record examination (verbal) questions being different. Although not all questions were identical to the exam, the topics and general approach were correct. So, if you study hard enough, you will do just fine.

User: Rayna***** My parents used to tell me about their experiences studying seriously and passing their exams on the first try. However, they never encountered the flood of study materials that can confuse students during exam preparation, particularly for the gre-verbal exam. Today, certifications such as the gre-verbal exam are often required even after completing conventional education, and the competition is fierce. Fortunately, Killexams.com provides questions and answers that can help students approach the exam with confidence and assurance of passing.
