prodigious : copious ::
  1. cavalier : meek
  2. convivial : unpleasant
  3. disputatious : argumentative
  4. feral : domesticated
Explanation
Answer: Choice (C) is correct.

In the first half of the analogy, prodigious and copious both refer to an amount that is huge or vast. So, look for the answer choice that contains synonyms. In choice (A), someone who is cavalier is casually arrogant, not meek, so eliminate that choice. In choice (B), someone who is convivial is warm and welcoming, not unpleasant, so eliminate that choice. In choice (D), an animal that is feral is wild, not domesticated or tamed, so eliminate that choice. Choice (C) contains the synonyms. Someone who is disputatious engages in disputes, and is argumentative.
