Patriotism : Citizens — Choose the pair that preserves the “attitude/act directed toward a group” relation.
Correct Answer: Homage : Martyrs
Introduction / Context:“Patriotism : Citizens” associates an attitude/feeling with its natural bearers or those to whom it pertains. We must find a pair where the first term is an act/attitude properly directed toward the group named in the second term.
Given Data / Assumptions:
- Patriotism is love for or devotion to one’s country and its citizens.
- We need a similar “act/attitude → appropriate recipients” pairing.
Concept / Approach:“Homage : Martyrs” fits: homage (deep respect/tribute) is properly paid to martyrs. The directionality mirrors the stem’s structure.
Step-by-Step Solution:Identify relation: attitude/act → group properly receiving it.Select “Homage : Martyrs.”
Verification / Alternative check:Common collocation: pay homage to martyrs.
Why Other Options Are Wrong:
- Morality : Truthfulness and Character : Values — internal traits, not “directed to” a group.
- Concentration : Students — students practice concentration; the direction is off.
- Discipline : Teachers — discipline is exercised by or inculcated by teachers, not directed “to” them as recipients.
Common Pitfalls:Ignoring directionality (actor → recipient). The stem implies recipients/beneficiaries.
Final Answer:Homage : Martyrs
