Analogies

To solve the analogy "chilly is to cold as ____ is to warm", we need to find a word that has a similar relationship to "warm" as "chilly" has to "cold". "Chilly" is a milder form of "cold". Now let's analyze the options:

• Option a: "freezing" is a more extreme form of "cold", not a milder form of "warm".
• Option b: "windy" is related to wind, not temperature intensity like "chilly" and "cold" are.
• Option c: "balmy" is a milder form of "warm", similar to how "chilly" is a milder form of "cold".
• Option d: "damp" is related to moisture, not temperature.

So the correct word to complete the analogy is "balmy".

(for each source):

• An ancient cave painting: Created during the time it represents, first - hand artifact. So it's a primary source.
• The President’s State of the Union speech: Directly from the President, original document. So it's a primary source.
• The Diary of Anne Frank: First - hand account of Anne Frank's experiences. So it's a primary source.
• Princess Diana’s biography: Written by someone else, not a first - hand account by Princess Diana. So it's a secondary source.
• A movie about the Holocaust: Interpretation of the Holocaust, not a first - hand source from the Holocaust time. So it's a secondary source.
• A textbook about ancient Chinese history: Compilation and interpretation of historical data. So it's a secondary source.

Answer:

c. balmy
