Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: C
Concept: In a word-pair analogy, first identify the exact relationship between the two words in the given pair, then find the option whose pair shares that same relationship stated in the same order.
Application: Druggist : Pharmacy expresses a profession-to-workplace relationship -- a druggist practises in a pharmacy. Chef : Restaurant carries the identical relationship, since a chef works in a restaurant.
Cross-check: the other pairs use a different relationship entirely.
Carpenter : Wood pairs a profession with the raw material it works with, not a place -- a different relationship.
Librarian : Catalogue pairs a profession with a tool/instrument it uses, not a place -- a different relationship.
Physician : Patient pairs a profession with the person it serves, not a place -- a different relationship.
Only Chef : Restaurant mirrors the profession-to-workplace relationship of Druggist : Pharmacy.
