Directions:
In each of the following questions, a word has been coded and its code is written against it to the left of the sign ball. The word to the right of it has been coded on the same principle and the code is given as one of the four alternatives under it. To find the answer you have to consult the matching of the small letters against the capital letters as given below and arrive at the principle involved in the coding. The coding in each question has not necessarily been done on the same pattern. Find the correct alternative in each case and mark your answer on the answer sheet.
