An analogy is a statement in which two things are compared because they have something in common. Sometimes the two things are the same in some way, sometimes they are opposites.

Analogy: Man is to Woman as Boy is to _____ a. friend b. wife c. girl

How to think this through.... In this example, all the words have to do with humans. A man is an adult male...A Woman is an adult female. Man and woman are opposites so I am looking for the opposite of boy. A boy is a male child....so the answer is C.) Girl, because a girl is a female child.
