Analogies Trivia

I'll give you two terms of a proportional analogy, and all you have to do is complete it. For the new guys, the form "A : B :: C : D" is phrased "A is to B as C is to D" where A and B share the same relationship as C and D. Got that? Have fun!

An analogy compares two different things that share something in common. For example: Cat is to meow as dog is to bark. Meow is the sound a cat makes, and bark is the sound a dog makes. They are compared by the sounds they make. Complete these analogies.
