Which option relates to “Melody” in the same way that “Delicious” relates to “Taste”? Select the auditory counterpart.

Introduction / Context:Sensory analogies connect a quality with the sense or medium through which it is perceived. “Delicious” describes a pleasant gustatory quality experienced via “taste.” We must choose the auditory counterpart for “melody,” focusing on perception/production within the hearing domain.

Given Data / Assumptions:

• Delicious ↔ Taste (gustation).
• Melody is an organized sequence of musical tones perceived by hearing and produced by voice/instruments.
• Options should be evaluated for auditory relevance and role.

Concept / Approach:Among the options, “Voice” is the natural auditory counterpart (a principal medium that carries melody). “Speak” is an action; “tongue” relates to taste and speech articulation (gustatory/articulatory, not the auditory product itself); “highness” refers to pitch height, not the general auditory medium producing melody.

Step-by-Step Solution:1) Identify that the analogy wants a hearing-related match.2) Select the medium that produces and conveys melody: “Voice.”

Verification / Alternative check:Melody can be vocal or instrumental; since only “Voice” among the options is a clean auditory producer, it best mirrors the relationship structure.

Why Other Options Are Wrong:

• Speak: Verb; not a medium/object.
• Tongue: Organ for taste/speech, not auditory medium.
• Highness: Describes pitch level, not the general auditory carrier.

Common Pitfalls:Picking a speech-related organ or action instead of the channel/producer that parallels taste.

Final Answer:Voice
