Question

Which of the following can be used to replace the "spiders know how to spin webs" analogy as used by the author?

• A. A kitten learning to jump over a wall.
• B. Bees collecting nectar.
• C. A donkey carrying a load.
• D. A horse running a Derby.
• E. A pet dog protecting its owner's property.

Hint:

When matching an analogy, find the option that shares the same core principle — here, an inborn, instinctive action.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is B

The spider web analogy describes an instinctive biological skill, not learned through teaching. Bees collecting nectar is also an innate behavior — they do it naturally without instruction. Other examples involve learning, training, or external influence, so they do not fit the analogy.
