Complete the analogy: DOCTOR is to PATIENT as TEACHER is to
Correct answer: B. student
- A. school
- B. student
- C. book
- D. lesson
Explanation
The relationship is that of a professional to the person they serve, so the teacher serves the student just as the doctor treats the patient. School is the place and book is a tool, neither of which matches the relationship. Always name the relationship in words before scanning the options.
