But on Korea's reference material, it's C.
Any other explanation?

Hue is one of the main properties of a color. I don't think C makes sense.

for 1, bhzhao said the OA is C.
lawn: ground (as around a house or in a garden or park) that is covered with grass and is kept mowed
Fir:the wood of a fir

Does this mean the bridge is "fir is establised with trees" and "lawn is established with grass"?

1. FIR : TREE
B pore : skin
C lawn : grass
D color : hue
E board : log

I don't have a bridge, but my take is D

2. Heal: ill
A. Decipher: Unintelligible
B. Hinder: Inventive
C. Engross: Impassive
D. Flatter: Proud
E. Illustrate: complex

to heal is to diminish illness.
to illustrate is to diminish complexity

3. Heal: ailing
A. Decipher: Unintelligible
B. Hinder: Inventive
C. Engross: Impassive
D. Flatter: Proud
E. Illustrate: complex

heal makes the ailing feel good
flatter makes the proud feel good
4. tine : fork = tooth: saw
tine is the prongs of a fork just like tooth is the prong of a saw.

5. tine : fork = mallet: hammer
No idea :-(

thy answers? Why? Any differences between Q2 and Q3?
