Question
Select the correct answer.Favorite is to best as darkest is to _______.Which of the following words completes the analogy? A. ugliest B. blackest C. lightest D. cleanest
Solution
The correct answer is B. blackest. This analogy is based on the concept of extremes. Just as 'favorite' is an extreme liking, 'best' is an extreme form of good. Similarly, 'darkest' is an extreme form of dark, so 'blackest' is an extreme form of black.
