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:
SIMMER : BOIL : :
Glide : drift
Drizzle : downpour

B. Drizzle : downpour
Simmer is to cook something just below the boiling point. Glide and drift means quick or steady movement. Drizzle is light rain whereas downpour is a sudden heavy rain.
