Question

Given below are two statements:
Statement I: The statement “Swati’s mind is a tree always laden with fruitful ideas” is an analogy.
Statement II: The statement “Swati’s mind is a tree always laden with fruitful ideas” is only descriptive in nature.
In the light of the above statements, choose the most appropriate answer from the options given below:

A.

Both Statement I and Statement II are correct

B.

Both Statement I and Statement II are incorrect

C.

Statement I is correct but Statement II is incorrect

D.

Statement I is incorrect but Statement II is correct

Correct option is A

Statement I: The statement “Swati’s mind is a tree always laden with fruitful ideas” is an analogy. This statement is correct. The phrase uses a metaphor to draw a comparison between two different things—Swati's mind and a tree laden with fruit—to illustrate the concept that Swati’s mind is full of valuable and productive ideas.
Statement II: The statement “Swati’s mind is a tree always laden with fruitful ideas” is only descriptive in nature. This statement could be seen as correct as the statement uses descriptive language to achieve its analogical purpose. The statement describes Swati's mind in a vivid, image-evoking way that is typical of descriptive language, albeit in the service of drawing an analogy.
Statement I is correct in identifying the use of analogy.
Statement II is correct in acknowledging that the language is descriptive, though it also serves an analogical function.
