Verbal Logic - Wonderlic

"Polyester," "plastic," and "nylon" are all synthetic materials. Thus, the odd word out is "wood," which can be used as building material, but is organic, or naturally occurring.

All of the given options are verbs related to movement. Only "drive," however, relates to the use or movement of a machine, facilitated by a person. All of the other verbs relate directly to human locomotion.

"Foot," "yard," "mile," and "kilometer" all refer to units of length. "Liter" is not like the others in that it is a unit of capacity.

"Ten, " "hundred," "thousand," and "million" all refer to powers of ten. "Fifty" does not.

The acre, the gallon, the pound, and the inch are all units of measurement from the English system of measurement. The kilogram is different in that it is a unit of measurement from the metric system.

Each part of the analogy matches the type of figure with its number of sides. A triangle has three sides; a hexagon has six.

There is not enough information given to say if the third statement is true. The relationship between the two sentences is only directly true in one direction, namely that all writers live in fear of a lonely penniless death. It does NOT hold that all people who live in fear of a penniless death are, by definition, writers. It is possible that the speaker is a writer, but the logic of the statement's does not necessitate that this is so.

Suppose Fluffy is a duck. Then by the first statement, Fluffy must like oranges. But by the second statement, Fluffy hates oranges, so this would be a contradiction. Therefore, Fluffy cannot be a duck.
