In these questions, you must select one word that will complete the analogy in
the best way.
Mark the word on the answer sheet.
Example old -> age : tall ->

Solution The completed analogy is: ‘old’ is to age as ‘tall’ is to height. This is
because the the second word in the pair is the category for the first.
For other questions, the word relationship may be different (pay
attention to word type as well as meaning) but the important thing
to remember is that the relationship between the first pair of words
is always the same as between the second pair of words.

A digital B laptop C keyboard D mouse E pixels
This is a part to a whole connection.

Number Analogies
In these questions, the pairs of numbers are related in the same way.
Find the number that completes the last group and mark it on the answer
sheet.
Example [ 4 -> 8 ] [ 3 -> 6 ] [ 6 -> ? ]
A3 B6 C 12 D 14 E 18
Answer 12
Solution In the first two groups, the first number is multiplied by 2 to make
the second number, i.e. 4 x 2 = 8 and 3 x 2 = 6. Therefore, the final
group can be completed in the same way, 6 x 2 = 12.
P1 [ 7 -> 15 ] [ 32 -> 40 ] [ 55 -> ? ]
A 60 B 63 C 66 D 70 E 72
The second number is the sum of the first number and 8.
P2 [ 2 -> 6 ] [ 5 -> 10 ] [ 10 -> ? ]
A 20 B 30 C 40 D 50 E 60
The second number is the first number multiplied by 2.

CAT4 Part 2
Parents’ Guide
Taking the test

Dictionaries are not allowed. Give your child a scrap sheet of paper and encourage them to use
it for any rough working out.
Your child should mark their answers on the Answer Sheet, not in the test booklet.
On the Answer Sheet, your child should record their answers by drawing a clear line through
the answer box with a pencil. Mistakes should be rubbed out and not crossed out.
Timing
It’s helpful for children to get comfortable with taking tests under timed conditions. This paper
is Part 2 and has a time limit of 26 minutes. Your child should spend 8 minutes on Verbal
Classification, 8 minutes on Verbal Analogies and 10 minutes on Number Analogies. Only start
timing when they have finished reading the instructions.
If they haven’t finished the test after 26 minutes, circle the question they got to, then let them
carry on. When you mark the test you’ll be able to see how many questions they got right in 26
minutes and how many overall. This will show you whether your child needs to work on their
speed, accuracy, or both.
Marking
You can find the answers on the Answer Key. Give your child one mark for each correct answer
(no half-marks are available in the real test!). Do not take marks off for wrong answers.
Take time to discuss your child’s results in a positive and encouraging way. Work through the
corrections, what they would do differently next time, and pick out key areas to revise next.
