A) Walk: Stagger
B) Strut: Walk
C) Speech: Stage
D) None of these
The best analogy for Speak:Stammer is:
A) Walk: Stagger
Here’s why the other options are not as fitting:
- B) Strut: Walk: While “strut” and “walk” are related to movement, they don’t capture the essence of the Speak:Stammer analogy. Strutting emphasizes a confident walk, which is the opposite of stammering.
- C) Speech: Stage: Speech and stage are related to communication, but the focus here is on the fluency of speech. Speech can happen anywhere, not just on a stage.
Walk:Stagger is a good analogy because:
- Speak:Stammer refers to fluency in speaking. Speaking is the normal, smooth action, while stammering is a hesitant or stumbling way of speaking, similar to how staggering is an unsteady or stumbling walk compared to a normal walk
