B
Parquet means flooring of wooden blocks arranged in a pattern. The word Mosaic could be a form of artwork with a pattern produced by juxtaposing small pieces of glass, stone etc of different colors. By process of elimination and also with the understanding of the meanings of the words given in the pair, we come to choice B.
A
It is the tool and the user relationship. Although C and D also seem like possibilities of the same order, its impact is not the same with the given pair as in A. This is because, the user in these two pairs cannot function without this main tool item that has been specifically mentioned. A painter cannot paint with brush alone. Other tools or instruments are also needed. Besides it is the ‘cutting’ action that is more closely entwined with the meaning of the word.
C
Choices A, B, and D are all synonymous in their relationships. E is rather antonymous. So, the best pair is C because the meanings are very similar in nature either as synonyms in the given pairs or as anonymously similar as in C.
A
Alchemy is medieval chemistry. All other choices do not relate in the manner as it is in A, because Nostrum means quick remedy, patent medicine, especially for social and political reform.
C
Choices A, B, D, and E are almost the same in their relationships. Where as C is closely akin to the given pair in its specific significant purpose, which it serves.
A
Parenthesis means a word or clause or sentence inserted, as explanation ellipsis is an omission of words needed to complete construction or sense. All the other choices are irrelevant.
