The question asks us to identify the pair of words that shares the same relationship as the given pair: Temple : Worship.

First, let's understand the relationship between "Temple" and "Worship". A Temple is a place of worship, and Worship is the primary activity performed in a Temple. So, the relationship is Place : Primary Activity performed at that place.

Now, let's examine each option based on this relationship:

• Option 1: University : President

  A University is a place of learning. A President is the head or leader of the university. The relationship here is Place : Head Person. This is different from the Place : Primary Activity relationship.

• Option 2: Garden : Plants

  A Garden is a place where Plants grow or are cultivated. Plants are things found in a garden, not the primary activity performed *in* the garden, although gardening (cultivating plants) is an activity. However, the most direct relationship implied by the primary function of the place isn't just the existence of plants.

• Option 3: Church : Prayer

  A Church is a place of worship. Prayer is a primary activity performed in a Church, similar to how worship is performed in a Temple. This pair shares the same Place : Primary Activity relationship as Temple : Worship.

• Option 4: Golden Temple : Amritsar

  The Golden Temple is a specific religious site. Amritsar is the city where the Golden Temple is located. The relationship here is Specific Place : Location (City). This is different from the Place : Primary Activity relationship.

Comparing the relationships, the pair Church : Prayer has the same relationship as Temple : Worship.

Therefore, the correct option is Church : Prayer.

Understanding Analogies in Verbal Reasoning

Analogies are questions that test your ability to identify relationships between pairs of words and apply that same relationship to another pair. To solve analogies effectively, you need to:

• Identify the relationship between the first pair of words.
• Analyze the options and determine the relationship between each pair.
• Select the option where the relationship is the most similar or identical to the first pair.

Types of Word Relationships in Analogies

Common relationships seen in word analogies include:

• Part and Whole (e.g., Finger : Hand)
• Cause and Effect (e.g., Rain : Flood)
• Synonyms (e.g., Happy : Joyful)
• Antonyms (e.g., Hot : Cold)
• Tool and User (e.g., Pen : Writer)
• Object and Function (e.g., Knife : Cut)
• Place and Dweller (e.g., Cave : Bear)
• Place and Activity (e.g., School : Study)
• Worker and Product (e.g., Baker : Bread)
• Degree (e.g., Warm : Hot)

In this specific question, the relationship identified is Place : Primary Activity.
