Select the word that fits the analogy: Do : Undo :: Trust : ________
Distrust
Analogy Reasoning
The question presents an analogy: Do is to Undo as Trust is to ________.
The relationship between the first pair, "Do" and "Undo", is that "Undo" represents the opposite or reversal of the action "Do".
Applying the Relationship
To solve the analogy, we need to find the word that represents the opposite or reversal of "Trust". Let's examine the options:
- Entrust and Intrust mean to give something to someone to care for or to use, implying confidence, which is related to trust, not its opposite.
- Distrust means a lack of trust or confidence. This is the direct opposite of trust.
- Untrust is not a standard English word, though its meaning could be inferred. However, "Distrust" is the established antonym.
Therefore, the word that fits the analogy is the opposite of Trust.
Conclusion
Following the pattern where the second word is the opposite of the first word (Do : Undo), the opposite of Trust is Distrust.
Important Questions from Phylogenetic trees
- Newts produce tetrodotoxin (TTX), a poison that targets sodium ion channels, for defense against their predators, garter snakes. Several species of garter snakes are resistant to newt TTX due to specific known amino acid substitutions in garter snake sodium channels. Which one of the following is best-suited to identify whether this adaptation in garter snakes has a single origin or multiple independent origins?
