When comparing two people or things, the comparative form of adjectives is followed by 'than'. The word 'taller' indicates comparison, so the sentence correctly reads 'She is taller than her sister.' Other prepositions such as 'as', 'like', and 'from' are grammatically incorrect in this context.

To decode the pattern, each letter in the word 'TREE' is shifted backward in the alphabet by one letter.
T → S (1 step back),
R → Q (1 step back),
E → D (1 step back),
E → D (1 step back).
Therefore, the code for 'TREE' becomes 'SQQD'.
Applying the same pattern to 'BUSH':
B → A,
U → T,
S → R,
H → G.
Hence, the coded form is 'ATRG'.

From the first statement, some men are included among strong people. From the second, all strong people are brave. Hence, the men who are strong must also be brave. Therefore, some men are brave.

'Always' means at all times or on every occasion. The direct opposite of this is 'Never', which means at no time or on no occasion.

Mango, Apple, and Orange are fruits, while Potato is a root vegetable. Therefore, Potato does not belong in the group.

The statement 'all cars are vehicles' means every car belongs to the category of vehicles. The second statement 'some vehicles are bikes' introduces another subset within vehicles. From this, it is certain that cars form a part of the larger set of vehicles, while bikes form another part that may or may not overlap with cars.
Therefore, the definite truth is that cars are included in the group of vehicles, which means 'some vehicles are cars'.

The word 'valid' means something that is sound, acceptable, or logically correct. The prefix 'in-' creates the direct opposite of this meaning. Therefore, 'invalid' means something that is not sound, acceptable, or logical. It is the precise antonym of 'valid' because it directly reverses the sense of correctness or legitimacy conveyed by 'valid'.

When a universal statement such as 'All engineers are logical' is true, it means that every member of the group 'engineers' belongs to the group 'logical people'.
This implies that there exists at least a subset of logical people who are engineers. In logical reasoning, this is a valid particular statement derived from a universal affirmative proposition ('All A are B' implies 'Some B are A').
Therefore, since engineers form part of the group of logical people, it follows that some logical people are indeed engineers.

The first statement says all rectangles are squares, which means the set of rectangles is contained within the set of squares. The second statement says all squares are circles, meaning the set of squares is contained within the set of circles.
By transitivity in logical reasoning, if all rectangles are squares and all squares are circles, then all rectangles must also be circles. This follows the relationship of subset inclusion — every rectangle is included in the set of circles through the chain of classification.

The relationship 'Teacher : School' describes a profession and the typical place or institution where that profession performs its work. A teacher works at a school. The pair that shares the same type of relationship is 'Doctor : Hospital' because a doctor typically works at a hospital, which is the standard institution associated with that profession.

The other options do not match the same relationship pattern:
• Farmer : Shop — a farmer typically works on a farm and sells produce in markets or shops; the primary workplace is a farm, not a shop, so this pair does not mirror the profession→workplace relationship in the same direct way.
• Soldier : Kitchen — soldiers are associated with military bases, battlefields or training grounds rather than kitchens; this pair is not a standard profession→workplace match.
• Pilot : Restaurant — pilots work in aircraft and at airports, not in restaurants, so this pairing is incorrect for the given relationship type.

Therefore, 'Doctor : Hospital' is the correct analogous pair.
