this is traditional comparision problem in which farmiliar "like" is tested. however, if we do not have an ability to analyse meaning , you face hard time.
"like" problem, if it is easy, makes clear the two element/nouns compared. but in harder "like" problem, we have to find out which noun can compared with which noun . in this harder problem, it is not easy to see what are two logically comparable nouns.
using only meaning analysis because there is no hard point of grammar here -this means all of you have enough grammar to do this problem, you can find out that the logically comparable nouns is mirobe and Wowagen.
dont despair if you fail on this problem, take a time to practice again and again, you will develop ability to analyse meaning relation.
a classification of meaning errors is a revolutionary advance for you to master meaning analysis needed on SC gmat.
