  4. Shruti Madan says:

    i think the correct ans. is e) director:play
    bcz, an orchestra is organised by instrumentalists n there r a no. of instuments in an orchestra. similarly, a director directs or organises a play. so the ans is undoubtedly (e).

  5. vinika says:

    its B, actor : troupe, because orchestra is a group and troupe is also a group , like instrumentalist plays in orchestra in the same way actor dances or play in troupe.

  6. pranjal says:

    instrumentalist is one who guides/ directs the orchestra …….similarly director is the one who directs the play

    B. actor : troupe

  8. Pedro says:

    The answer is B, first you need to build a bridge between the stem words. A bridge between the stem words can be: A instrumentalist is part of an orchestra. Then, plug the bridge into the answer choices. So A actor is part of an troupe. Troupe means a company or group, especially of touring actors, singer or dancers. Kaplan strategy.

  9. gill says:

    ACTOR is just one component of his TROUPE likewise INSTRUMENTALIST is just one component of its ORCHESTRA.
    look for strong bridge so Answer must be B

    B – because an instrumentalist plays in the orchestra and an actor plays in a troupe. It is not E because a director leads the play as a conductor leads an orchestra
