Analogy — Collection and its elements: Glossary : Words :: ? : ? Pick the pair that reflects “collection/compilation : its constituent items”.

Difficulty: Easy

Correct Answer: Atlas : Maps

Explanation:


Introduction / Context:
A glossary is a curated collection of words with definitions. An analogous pair should present a named compilation and its standard elements.



Concept / Approach:
“Atlas : Maps” preserves “named compilation : items.” While “Lexicon : Words” is also close (a lexicon is a body of words), atlas→maps is the cleanest across distinct domains.



Why Other Options Are Wrong:

  • Thesaurus : Rhyme — A thesaurus groups synonyms/antonyms, not rhymes.
  • Catalogue : Dates — A catalogue can list many things; “dates” is arbitrary.
  • Lexicon : Words — Plausible, but atlas→maps offers clearer, less domain-specific parallel.
  • None of these — invalid since a correct pair exists.


Final Answer:
Atlas : Maps
