TIP:
1. Determine the specific
relationship between the given pair
of words. Be as accurate as you can
be when defining their connection.
2. Look for the word or pair of
words that follow the same
relationship and the "same order".
The first word must correspond to
the third word and the second word
must correspond to the fourth word.
