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: Zephyr : Gale

Fossil : Aged
Imprint : Emboss
Trickle : Torrent
Death : Sickness

The correct answer is: A. Fossil : Aged

Zephyr is a gentle breeze, while a gale is a strong wind. A fossil is the remains or impression of a prehistoric plant or animal embedded in rock. An aged person is old.

B. Imprint : Emboss
An imprint is a mark or impression left by something, while embossing is the process of making a raised design on paper or other material.

C. Trickle : Torrent
A trickle is a small stream of water, while a torrent is a violent flood of water.

D. Death : Sickness
Death is the end of life, while sickness is an illness.

In each of the other options, the two words do not have the same relationship as the original pair of words. For example, in option B, an imprint is not necessarily a result of embossing.
