Question 61
Complete the analogy: Water : Thirst :: Food : ?
An analogy compares two pairs of related concepts that share a similar relationship. Water satisfies thirst, just as food satisfies hunger. Both are examples of a substance or necessity meeting a human need. Water eliminates the sensation of thirst, while food removes the feeling of hunger. Therefore, the relationship between food and hunger is parallel to that between water and thirst.

Question 62
A code represents “WORK” as “XPSL.” How is “PLAY” written?
In the given code, each letter is shifted one step forward in the alphabet:
W → X
O → P
R → S
K → L
Thus, 'WORK' becomes 'XPSL'.
Applying the same rule to 'PLAY':
P → Q
L → M
A → B
Y → Z
Hence, 'PLAY' is written as 'QMBZ'.
W → X
O → P
R → S
K → L
Thus, 'WORK' becomes 'XPSL'.
Applying the same rule to 'PLAY':
P → Q
L → M
A → B
Y → Z
Hence, 'PLAY' is written as 'QMBZ'.

Question 63
Choose the odd shape: Cube, Sphere, Cone, Circle.
A cube, sphere, and cone are all three-dimensional (3D) shapes that occupy space and have volume. A circle, however, is a two-dimensional (2D) shape with only length and breadth, having no depth or volume. Therefore, the circle differs fundamentally in dimension from the others, making it the odd one out.

Question 64
Which statement is correct?

The terms 'man' and 'woman' denote distinct, mutually exclusive categories in the usual biological/social sense used in standard categorical logic. If two sets are mutually exclusive, no member of one set belongs to the other. Therefore the statement that expresses this mutual exclusivity is the one that asserts there is no overlap between the two sets. The others either assert overlap ('Some men are women', 'Some women are men') or claim a universal inclusion that is not true ('All men are women'). The logically valid statement given those definitions is that no man is a woman, which correctly captures the non-overlapping relationship between the two categories.

Question 65
Identify the relationship: Finger : Hand :: Toe : ?
This is an analogy of part to whole. A finger is a constituent part of a hand; similarly, a toe is a constituent part of a foot. The hand contains fingers in the same way the foot contains toes. The other choices (leg, knee, body) are larger or different anatomical units that do not mirror the same immediate part–whole relationship.

Question 66
If all pencils are pens and all pens are tools, which statement is correct?
This is a transitive categorical relationship. The first premise says every pencil is a member of the set 'pens'. The second premise says every pen is a member of the set 'tools'. By transitivity of set inclusion, every pencil (being a pen) must also be a tool. The statement 'All pencils are tools' follows directly from those premises. The other options either reverse the inclusion or contradict the given premises.

Question 67
Identify the odd one: Car, Bus, Train, Table.
The first three items — Car, Bus, and Train — are all modes of transportation used for carrying passengers or goods from one place to another. A Table, on the other hand, is a piece of furniture used for placing items or working, and it does not serve any transportation purpose. Hence, Table does not belong to the same category as the others.

Question 68
In a certain code, SUN = TVO, then MOON = ?
Each letter in the word is replaced by the next letter in the English alphabet:
\(S \to T\), \(U \to V\), \(N \to O\). Thus, SUN becomes TVO.
Applying the same pattern to MOON:
\(M \to N\), \(O \to P\), \(O \to P\), \(N \to O\).
Therefore, MOON becomes NQPO. The pattern is a consistent shift of +1 for each letter.
\(S \to T\), \(U \to V\), \(N \to O\). Thus, SUN becomes TVO.
Applying the same pattern to MOON:
\(M \to N\), \(O \to P\), \(O \to P\), \(N \to O\).
Therefore, MOON becomes NQPO. The pattern is a consistent shift of +1 for each letter.

Question 69
A is mother of B. B is father of C. How is A related to C?
Since A is the mother of B, and B is the father of C, it means A is one generation above B and two generations above C. The parent of a father or mother is known as a grandparent. Therefore, A is the grandmother of C.

Question 70
Choose the statement that follows:
“All Dangote employees are workers. Some workers are engineers.”
“All Dangote employees are workers. Some workers are engineers.”
The first statement tells us that every Dangote employee belongs to the group of workers, and the second statement tells us that some workers belong to the group of engineers. From these two statements, it follows that there may be an overlap between Dangote employees and engineers, meaning some Dangote employees could be engineers. However, we cannot say all Dangote employees are engineers or that all engineers work for Dangote, as the information does not confirm that. Therefore, the only valid logical conclusion is that some Dangote employees are engineers.
