Appendix D: Word Connection List*
In Table D.1 you will find a list of familiar words printed in capital letters followed by two words in lowercase letters. Look at the word SINK in the example below. Now glance at the two other words. Does the word SINK make you think more of “wash” or of “drown”? Draw a line under the word that is more connected in your mind with SINK.
Example: SINK Wash Drown
There are no right or wrong answers because one word connection is just as good as another. Just look at the two words that follow the word in capital letters and underline the one that you feel is more connected in your mind with that word. WORK FAST. Don't stop to think long about any one word. Be sure not to leave any words out.
