sophomoric : mature ::
  1. funereal : solemn
  2. inane : silly
  3. lucrative : profitable
  4. perceptive : obtuse
Explanation
Answer: Choice (D) is correct.

In the first half of the analogy, sophomoric describes someone who is immature and unsophisticated. So, look for the answer pair that contains antonyms. In choice (A), something that is funereal is solemn and serious, so eliminate that choice. In choice (B), inane describes something that is silly or absurd, so eliminate that. In choice (C), something that is lucrative is profitable, so eliminate that choice. The choice that contains antonyms Is (D). Someone who is perceptive is insightful and observant, not obtuse or simple-minded.
