Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: D
Explanation
The correct answer is option 4 i.e. Trick.
- Analogy - A comparison is done to find similarity
- Bonanza - Increase in fortune or profits
- Delusion - False belief or judgment despite evidence to the contrary
- Trick - A cunning act to deceive or outwit someone
While both delusion and trick appear correct, we can cross out delusion because the evidence is present in this case. People believe in the contrary despite proof while in delusion.
Hence, trick is the correct answer.
