I dont mean to offend anyone but it looks like many people commented on the answer and got it changed to "Table".. Also, I googled to make sure if there is similar question. Fortunately found the exact question and answer elsewhere.. Check Q 52..

@Tom cruiz.. You are right.. These people apply standard rule to every question without reading it properly.. If Duster is "called as" Table, table would be the right answer. But here, Duster "means" Table and Sharpener "means" Duster which implies that Duster is the word used for Table => Table is "called as" Duster.. and Sharpener is "called as" Duster... So sharpener is the answer..
