Difficulty: Easy
Correct Answer: Doctor : Stethoscope
Explanation:
Introduction / Context:We seek a profession paired with a characteristic tool. A sailor commonly uses a compass for navigation. The best parallel is a doctor using a stethoscope for auscultation.
Given Data / Assumptions:Tool → user is the relation, not place → person or object → owner.
Concept / Approach:Check direction and specificity. “Doctor : Stethoscope” matches. “Student : Exam” is event participation; “Pen : Officer” reverses and mismatches; “Painter : Artist” is co-hyponym/profession, not tool; “Driver : Highway” is user → place, not tool.
Step-by-Step Solution:
1) Identify the stem as tool → professional user. 2) Select the medical parallel. 3) Eliminate non-tool relations.Verification / Alternative check:Medical basics confirm the stethoscope as a doctor’s diagnostic tool.
Why Other Options Are Wrong:They break the required relation or reverse direction.
Common Pitfalls:Choosing person–place or person–event relationships.
Final Answer:Doctor : Stethoscope
