Answer
Correct Answer: Atlas : Maps
Explanation
Introduction / Context:A glossary is a curated collection of words with definitions. An analogous pair should present a named compilation and its standard elements.
Concept / Approach:“Atlas : Maps” preserves “named compilation : items.” While “Lexicon : Words” is also close (a lexicon is a body of words), atlas→maps is the cleanest across distinct domains.
Why Other Options Are Wrong:
- Thesaurus : Rhyme — A thesaurus groups synonyms/antonyms, not rhymes.
- Catalogue : Dates — A catalogue can list many things; “dates” is arbitrary.
- Lexicon : Words — Plausible, but atlas→maps offers clearer, less domain-specific parallel.
- None of these — invalid since a correct pair exists.
Final Answer:Atlas : Maps
