Here are some letter string analogy problems from the Copycat project.
These problems are a sample of the many hundreds or thousands of
problems devised by various members of the Fluid Analogies Research
Group, led by Douglas Hofstadter, currently at the
Center for Research on Concepts
and Cognition at Indiana University.
For a good introduction to the Copycat project, see Chapter 5 of
Fluid Concepts and
Creative Analogies: Computer Models of the Fundamental Mechanisms of
Thought.
