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: Mace : Majesty

Book : Knowledge
Sword : Soldier
Degree : Knowledge
King : Crown

The correct answer is: A. Book : Knowledge

A mace is a ceremonial club or staff, often made of metal and decorated with jewels, that is carried as a symbol of authority by a monarch or other high-ranking official. Majesty is the quality of being grand or impressive, especially in a dignified or stately way.

A book is a written or printed work consisting of pages enclosed in a cover and typically having a binding. Knowledge is familiarity with or understanding of a subject.

The relationship between mace and majesty is that a mace is a symbol of majesty, while the relationship between book and knowledge is that a book is a source of knowledge.

The other options are incorrect because:

  • Sword and soldier are not related in the same way as mace and majesty. A sword is a weapon, while a soldier is a person who fights in a war.
  • Degree and knowledge are not related in the same way as mace and majesty. A degree is a qualification, while knowledge is familiarity with or understanding of a subject.
  • King and crown are not related in the same way as mace and majesty. A king is a monarch, while a crown is a symbol of kingship.
