Which word set completes the following analogy?

follow : lead

lull : calm

run : idle

miss : attend

1 answer

The correct word set that completes the analogy is:

run : idle

The relationship between "lope" and "jog" involves a decrease in intensity or speed (from a more relaxed running style to a more active one), while "run" to "idle" also represents a significant decrease in activity (from running to not moving at all).

The other options do not have a similar relationship regarding activity levels.
