  • AHero : Medal
  • BGlutton : Food
  • CJudge : Court
  • DCoward : Timid

Step-by-Step Solution

A miser is a person, and stingy is the very quality that makes him one, so the pair runs from a kind of person to the trait that defines him. A coward stands to timid in exactly that way. 'Hero : Medal' gives the reward a hero may be given, not what he is like. 'Glutton : Food' gives the thing he craves rather than the trait, and 'Judge : Court' gives the place in which he works.
Answer: D) Coward : Timid
