business : remunerative ::
  1. regime : punitive
  2. preamble : probationary
  3. pastime : noncommercial
  4. tenure : precarious
Explanation
Answer: Choice (C) is correct.

A business has the characteristic of being remunerative, meaning it is profitable. Choice (A) is incorrect because a regime, or established government, is not necessarily punitive, or punishing. A preamble is the introduction to a document, and does not have anything to do with probationary, which means provisional or experimental. Although someone’s tenure (term or status) may be precarious or uncertain, it does not have the same relationship as the initial term in the analogy. Therefore, choice (C) is correct. A pastime, or hobby, is not typically done for profit, so it is noncommercial.
