Answer

Correct Answer: Belt

Explanation

Introduction / Context:We match a body part to the accessory commonly worn around it. A tie is worn around the neck. The accessory typically worn around the waist to secure garments is a belt.

Given Data / Assumptions:

  • Tie ↔ neck.
  • Belt ↔ waist.

Concept / Approach:Map the “worn around” relation from neck:tie to waist:?. The closest standard accessory is the belt.

Step-by-Step Solution:

1) Identify the accessory relation for neck. 2) Identify the parallel accessory for waist. 3) Choose “Belt”.

Verification / Alternative check:Ribbon and sash may be worn but are less standard as functional waist accessories compared with belts. Watch is for the wrist; shirt is a garment, not a waist accessory.

Why Other Options Are Wrong:They either do not target the waist or are not standard accessories for that body part in the same sense as belt.

Common Pitfalls:Choosing a general garment instead of the specific accessory worn around the body part.

Final Answer:Belt
