Solution

The correct answer is "Rigid". The relationship between the words in the first pair is that they are antonyms, or opposites. "Alleviate" means to make something less severe, while "Aggravate" means to make something worse or more severe. Similarly, "Elastic" means flexible or able to resume its normal shape after being stretched or compressed, while "Rigid" means unable to bend or be forced out of shape; not flexible. Therefore, "Rigid" is the word that best completes the analogy.
