Analogy Reasoning: Blood to Red, Coal to?

This question tests the ability to identify relationships between word pairs and apply that relationship to find a missing word.

Relationship Identification

The first pair, "Blood : Red", establishes a relationship. The key characteristic connecting "Blood" to "Red" is color. Blood is typically known for its red color.

Applying the Relationship

We need to apply the same relationship (color) to the second pair, "Coal : ?".

• What is the common color associated with Coal?
• Coal is primarily known for being Black.

Conclusion

Therefore, the word that best completes the analogy, following the pattern of object-to-color, is "Black".

Blood is associated with the color Red. Similarly, Coal is associated with the color Black.

Correct Answer: Black
