ANALOGY.pptx

For grade 7 students

1. Finding a good man is like finding a needle in a haystack. That movie was a roller coaster ride of emotions. Life is like a box of chocolates – you never know what you gonna get. Writing a book of poetry is like dropping a rose petal down the Grand Canyon and waiting for the echo.

2. ANALOGY

3. What is analogy? -Analogy shows a relationship between words. -It is a comparison of two things that is quite different from each other. -It describes or explains one thing by examining its similarities with other things.

4. In showing relationships, analogy uses double colon to split the pair of words into two parts. UP:DOWN :: HOT:COLD (1 st part) (2 nd part) It reads as, UP is an opposite of DOWN, just as HOT is an opposite of COLD. NOTE: These two pair of words is an example of ANTONYM ANALOGY RELATIONSHIP.
