1.(B) A trap is used to catch game. A net is used to catch fish.

 

2.(A) A pastor leads a congregation. A shepherd leads a flock. (this one seems too easy, so I assume it is wrong :) )

 

3 (D) (would have guest on GRE because I didn't know what Mansard meant) A mansard is a type of roof. A dormer is a type of window.

#3 is one of the reasons why I fear the Verbal Section.

 

I think people get caught up in memorizing fancy words.

 

One of the reasons GRE Analogies are so hard is that you have to have a broad range of knowledge on things like common tools used for a trade, instruments etc etc.
