It is a fill-in-the-blank question in the format of a proportion.
 
"_______________:forest::grass:prairie"
  _____________ is to forest   as   grass is to prairie
 
Now, note:  prairie = a large open area of grassland, especially in the Mississippi River valley.
       So.   forest = is an area of ____________
 
Since most people learn by association, the type of problem [comparison/contrast] is very common in real life.
