rambunctious : child ::
  1. opulent : nuptials
  2. pastoral : landscape
  3. prodigious : mammal
  4. turbulent : rapids
Explanation
Answer: Choice (D) is correct.

A rambunctious child is one who is out of control, so look for the answer choice with a similar relationship. Opulent means luxurious, which could describe nuptials, or a wedding, but the relationship between that pair is dissimilar from the first pair. A pastoral landscape is one that is calm and tranquil. Prodigious means unusual, and is not usually used to describe a mammal. The only choice that has a similar relationship to the first half of the analogy is choice (D). Rapids that are turbulent are chaotic, violent, and out of control, similar to a rambunctious child.
