Find the odd one out:
Shirt and Tailor
Finding the Odd One Out
The question asks us to identify the pair that is different from the others in the given list. To do this, let's examine the relationship between the items in each pair.
Analyzing Each Pair
- Tea and Coffee: Both tea and coffee are popular beverages consumed widely. They belong to the same category of drinks.
- Cycle and Scooter: Both a cycle and a scooter are modes of personal transportation. They are used for commuting or travelling short distances.
- Rifle and Sword: Both a rifle and a sword are types of weapons. They are used for defense or combat.
- Shirt and Tailor: A shirt is an item of clothing, while a tailor is a person who makes or repairs clothing, including shirts. This pair consists of a product and the professional who creates or modifies it.
Identifying the Difference
When we look at the relationships, we see a pattern in the first three pairs:
- Tea and Coffee are both items within the same category (beverages).
- Cycle and Scooter are both items within the same category (modes of transport).
- Rifle and Sword are both items within the same category (weapons).
However, the pair "Shirt and Tailor" is different. A shirt is an object, and a tailor is a person who performs a service related to that object (making or altering it). The relationship is one of a product and its maker/service provider, not two items belonging to the same functional or categorical group.
Conclusion: The Odd Pair
Based on the analysis of the relationships between the items in each pair, the pair "Shirt and Tailor" does not follow the same pattern as the other pairs. The other pairs consist of two items from the same category or serving a similar function, whereas "Shirt and Tailor" consists of a product and the person who works with it.
Therefore, "Shirt and Tailor" is the odd one out among the given options.
