Classification — opposites vs cause–effect: Select the pair that is NOT an opposite pair: Light : Heavy, Crime : Blame, Short : Long, Man : Woman.

Introduction / Context:
Three pairs are commonly treated as opposites/contrasts in reasoning sets; one pair instead expresses a cause–effect or action–consequence relation rather than opposition.

Given Data / Assumptions:

• Light vs Heavy → antonyms (weight/feel).
• Short vs Long → antonyms (length/duration).
• Man vs Woman → contrasting genders (treated as opposites in such tests).
• Crime vs Blame → not antonyms; blame is a response/attribution to wrongdoing.

Concept / Approach:
Check whether the second word negates/contrasts the first on the same scale. “Crime” and “blame” are linked semantically but not as contraries.

Step-by-Step Solution:
1) Validate antonym status for A, C, D.2) Identify B as cause–effect (crime leads to blame).3) Hence B is the outlier.

Verification / Alternative check:
Try “not X = Y?” Not light = heavy; not short = long; but not crime ≠ blame.

Why Other Options Are Wrong:
They conform to standard opposite/contrast pairings used in exams.

Common Pitfalls:
Getting stuck on philosophical nuance; follow common test conventions.

Final Answer:
Crime : Blame
