Classification — worker and output: choose the pair that does NOT show “worker : thing produced/repaired.”

Difficulty: Easy

Correct Answer: Chef : Cook

Explanation:


Introduction / Context:
In three pairs, the left-hand word is a profession and the right-hand word is a concrete product or output of that work. One pair instead ends with a verb (an activity), not the produced item.



Given Data / Assumptions:

  • Mason : Wall → builds walls.
  • Cobbler : Shoe → makes/repairs shoes.
  • Farmer : Crop → grows crops.
  • Chef : Cook → “cook” is an action; the object would be “meal/dish/food.”


Concept / Approach:
Check part-of-speech and concreteness of the right-hand term: product vs action.


Step-by-Step Solution:

1) A–C map profession → output.2) D maps profession → activity (verb).3) Therefore D is the odd pair.


Verification / Alternative check:
Replace “Cook” by “Dish/Meal” and it would fit the pattern; as written, it does not.


Why Other Options Are Wrong:
They keep the worker→product mapping intact.


Common Pitfalls:
Accepting any association; the test wants the same relation type across three choices.


Final Answer:
Chef : Cook
