Choose the correct word to complete the analogies. Water and ship, air and:

This question is asking you to choose the correct word to complete the analogy between "water and ship" and "air and...". In the first part of the analogy, "water" is related to "ship" because a ship moves on water. So, we need to find a word that relates to "air" in a similar way.

Let's look at the options. Option A is "breathing." Breathing is not related to air in the same way that a ship is related to water, so we can eliminate this option.

Option B is "flying." Flying is a way of moving through the air, just like a ship moves through water. This seems like a good choice, but let's check the other options.

Option C is "aeroplane." An aeroplane is a vehicle that can fly in the air, just like a ship can move in the water. This option seems to be the best choice because it directly relates to the analogy.

Option D is "airfield." An airfield is a place where airplanes take off and land, but it doesn't directly relate to the analogy like the other options.

Based on the analogy between "water and ship" and "air and...", the best choice to complete the analogy is Option C, "aeroplane." So, the correct answer is Option C.
