To determine the relationship expressed by each pair of words, we need to understand the meaning of each word and identify the connection between them. Here's how you can approach each question:
1. Stethoscope: doctor
A stethoscope is a tool used by a doctor. The relationship between the two is that the stethoscope is a tool used by a specific profession, which is a doctor. Options a, b, and c do not have a similar relationship, as they don't involve a tool used by a specific profession. Option d, microphone: broadcaster, does have a similar relationship, as a microphone is a tool used by a broadcaster. Therefore, the correct answer is d.
2. Cubism: art
Cubism is an artistic movement or style. The relationship between the two is that cubism is a specific genre or subset of art. Option a, dictatorship: government, has a similar relationship, as a dictatorship is a specific type of government. None of the other options have a similar relationship. Therefore, the correct answer is a.
3. Oneness: unity
Oneness and unity both refer to a state of being united or undivided. The relationship between the two is that oneness is a synonym for unity. Options a, b, and c do not have a similar relationship, as they involve different concepts. Option d, gardening: trowel, does not have a similar relationship either, as a trowel is a tool used for gardening but doesn't share the same meaning as gardening. Therefore, the correct answer is none of the options provided.
By analyzing the meanings of the words and identifying the relationship between them, you can find the correct answer for each question.
