Analogy (verbal reasoning): Identify the pair with the same relationship as "GRAIN : SALT". Consider how the first term relates to the second (a single tiny piece in relation to the substance). Choose the option that best mirrors this relationship and preserves order.

Given data

• Stem pair: GRAIN : SALT
• Options: shard:pottery, shred:wood, blades:grass, chip:glass

Concept/Approach
A grain is a very small particle or unit of the substance salt. We need a partitive relation: “tiny piece : whole material.”

Option analysis
chip:glass — a chip is a small piece of glass. Perfect part–whole (particulate) match.shard:pottery — also a fragment of pottery, but “shard” often implies a broken fragment rather than a typical grain/particle; still plausible but less prototypical than chip:glass for “tiny piece.”shred:wood — “shred” collocates with cloth/paper; less apt for wood as the base material.blades:grass — number mismatch and a blade of grass is an individual plant part, not a tiny particle.

Final Answer
chip:glass
