MAT Practice Analogy Questions

Answer: Choice (D) is correct.

Proclivity and inclination are both synonyms that mean tendency. Therefore, look for the answer choice that contains synonyms. In choice (A), germane means relevant and useful, not irrelevant, so eliminate that choice. In choice (B), a delusion is a fantasy or illusion, and does not really have anything to do with being ideal or perfect. In choice (C), haughtiness means arrogant or conceit, not empathy, which means understanding and compassionate. The only choice that contains synonyms is choice (D). Fervor is another word for zeal or passion.
