stygian : dark ::

propitious : unfavorable
quizzical : curious
recalcitrant : obedient
scurrilous : complimentary

Explanation

Answer: Choice (B) is correct.

The first half of the analogy contains synonyms. Something that is stygian is dark and gloomy. In choice (A), propitious describes something that is favorable or advantageous, not unfavorable, so eliminate that choice. In choice (C), someone who is recalcitrant is disobedient even after being punished, so eliminate that choice. In choice (D), someone who is scurrilous is vulgar and offensive - far from complimentary. Choice (B) is correct. Someone may look at you in a quizzical manner - curious and questioning.
