GATE 2023 · General Aptitude · Word Pairs · medium
Answer: C. Cite — just as guidelines are implemented, references are cited.
Identify the analogy pattern: Guidelines : Implement = the noun is acted upon by/associated with the verb. Apply the same pattern: References : _____ = what verb is associated with references?
Match the verb to References: You cite references (cite = to quote or attribute a source). Sight = to see/spot (unrelated). Site = a location (noun, unrelated). Plagiarise = to copy without attribution (opposite of citing properly).
