The following question, consist of two words each that have a certain relationship to each other, followed by four lettered pairs of words. Select the lettered pair that has the same relationship as the original pair of words: Elusive : Capture

Sensible : Decide
Headstrong : Control
Elastic : Stretch
Gullible : Trick

The correct answer is: D. Gullible : Trick

The relationship between “elusive” and “capture” is that something that is elusive is difficult to capture. Something that is gullible is easily tricked.

The other options do not have the same relationship.

  • Sensible and decide do not have the same relationship. Something that is sensible is reasonable or practical. Deciding something is not the same as making it sensible.
  • Headstrong and control do not have the same relationship. Something that is headstrong is stubborn or determined. Controlling something is not the same as making it headstrong.
  • Elastic and stretch do not have the same relationship. Something that is elastic can be stretched. Stretching something is not the same as making it elastic.
