School is to the principal as office is to
a. manager
b. secretary
c. computer
d. teacher
e. building - ANSWER a. The head of a school is its principal and the head of an office is
its manager. Although a secretary works in a office, he or she is not the head of the
office, so choice b is incorrect. Choice c is incorrect because a computer is something
found in an office. Choice d is incorrect because a teacher works in a school, not in an
office and is not the boss of either. A building is where schools and offices are found and
doesn't explain who the boss of an office is so, choice e is incorrect.
Paint is to brush as clay is to
a. dough
b. mold
c. sculpture
d. artist
e. rock - ANSWER b. A painter manipulates paint by brushing it and a sculptor
manipulates clay by molding it. Choices a and e are incorrect because they describe
other substances a sculptor can mold. Choice c is wrong because it describes the end
result of molding clay but fails to address how the clay is manipulated. Choice d is
incorrect because it describes the person who works with clay.

a. fork
b. stab

e. handle - ANSWER c. A knife serves to slice and a spoon to stir. Choice a is incorrect
because a fork is just another kind of kitchen utensil. Choice b is wrong because it just
describes another function of a knife. Choice d is something one might eat with a spoon
and choice e is a part of a spoon, so these are incorrect as well.
Proud is to brag as despairing is to
a. sing
b. exult
c. sad
d. depress
e. weep - ANSWER e. Brag is the action of a person who is proud and weep is the action
of a person who is despairing. A person who is despairing, or sad, is not likely to sing (a)
or to exult (b). Choice c is incorrect because sad means basically the same thing as
despairing but doesn't describe what a despairing person does. To depress is to have a
despairing effect on someone, so choice d is incorrect.

a. amused
b. enraged
