To solve this analogy, we need to identify the relationship between the given words "average" and "extraordinary." In this case, "extraordinary" is an antonym of "average." We are looking for a pair of words with a similar antonym relationship.
Let's analyze each option:
1. uncommon : rare
- Both words are synonyms, not antonyms. This option does not fit the relationship.
2. content : elated
- "Elated" is a much stronger emotion than "content," making this pair not direct antonyms but related in terms of intensity. This option does not fit the direct antonym relationship.
3. unanimous : varied
- "Varied" is an antonym of "unanimous." This follows the same relationship as the given pair (antonyms). This option is a fit.
4. abnormal : uncommon
- These words are not direct antonyms. Rather, they are somewhat related in meaning. This option does not fit the relationship.
Therefore, the word set that completes the analogy is:
unanimous : varied
Which word set completes the following analogy?
average : extraordinary ::
uncommon : rare
content : elated
unanimous : varied
abnormal : uncommon
