Recognize the shared category to complete the analogy: “Folketing : Storting : Knesset — these names belong to which common class?”
Correct Answer: They are the name of parliaments
Introduction / Context:Some analogy/classification questions ask you to identify a shared institutional category. “Folketing,” “Storting” (often spelled Storting), and “Knesset” are official names used by different countries for their national parliaments or legislatures.
Given Data / Assumptions:
- Folketing → Denmark.
- Storting → Norway.
- Knesset → Israel.
Concept / Approach:The task is to determine the common institutional type. All three are national assemblies with legislative authority in their respective countries, making “parliaments” the correct category.
Step-by-Step Solution:1) Recognize each term as a national legislature name.2) Confirm that each belongs to a different country but the same institution type.3) Select the common category “parliaments.”
Verification / Alternative check:Official country profiles and civics references list these bodies as national parliaments/legislatures.
Why Other Options Are Wrong:
- Currencies/Rivers/Cities/Mountains: Incorrect semantic class; these terms are not used for those categories.
Common Pitfalls:Being misled by unfamiliar spellings; focus on political-institution names rather than geography or currency.
Final Answer:They are the name of parliaments
