Direction.
In these questions, two words will be given to you, and these two words will have some kind of a relationship which relates them in a particular way. After finding this relationship, you have to pick the right option which has words related in a similar way:
LYING : PERJURY : :
Statement : Testimony
Seeing : Observing
Taking : Stealing
Eating : Dining
Correct Answer :
A. Statement : Testimony
Perjury means the offence of wilfully telling an untruth or making a misrepresentation under oath. So the relationship between lying and perjury is one of degree or extent.
The correct relationship is in option (a), as testimony means a formal, written or spoken statement, especially one given in a court of law. Thus this also represents a degree relationship.
In all the other options, this relationship of degree doesnt exist. In (b), seeing and observing are distinct activities, in option (c), stealing is a form of taking, it doesnt tell the extent to which something is taken and similarly in option (d), dining means having dinner, which involves eating.
