Question

CLIPS : PAPER — Choose the pair that does not exhibit the same relationship:

• A. thread : beads
• B. cement : bricks
• C. ribbon : hair
• D. bag : vegetables

Hint:

In functional analogies, check whether the action is the same — binding vs containing is a key difference here.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is D

The relationship between CLIPS and PAPER is that the first is used to hold the second together.
Option (A) — thread : beads — thread is used to hold beads together (in a necklace or string).
Option (B) — cement : bricks — cement is used to hold bricks together in construction.
Option (C) — ribbon : hair — ribbon can be used to hold hair together in a tied form.
Option (D) — bag : vegetables — a bag is used to contain or carry vegetables, not to bind or hold them together in a fixed structure. This changes the relationship from “binding” to “containing,” so it does not fit.
