Analogy — Pick the “official who presides over” relation: Umpire : Game

Difficulty: Easy

Correct Answer: Moderator : Debate

Explanation:

Introduction / Context:The stem shows a role-to-context relation: an umpire is an official who presides over and adjudicates a game. We must select a pair where the first item is the designated official overseeing the event named by the second item.

Given Data / Assumptions:

  • Umpires manage rules and decisions in sports.
  • We want an oversight/adjudication role tied to a formal proceeding.

Concept / Approach:Classify options by whether they represent “official → event supervised.” Reject creator→product, participant→occasion, or talent→phenomenon mappings.

Step-by-Step Solution:(a) Prodigy : Wonder → gifted person vs abstract amazement; not an oversight role.(b) Chef : Banquet → a chef prepares/serves; not primarily an adjudicating official.(c) Legislator : Election → legislator is elected in an election; again, not presiding over it.(d) Moderator : Debate → moderators oversee and regulate debates; exact analogue of umpire→game.

Verification / Alternative check:Both “umpire→game” and “moderator→debate” express neutral oversight to enforce rules/time/order.

Why Other Options Are Wrong:They indicate roles related to production or participation rather than adjudication.

Common Pitfalls:Confusing any role associated with an event (e.g., chef at banquet) with the official who arbitrates.

Final Answer:Moderator : Debate
