What do beaver and rats share?
"Rat" is not very specific, but no, they're not. The true rats are murids (Latin for "mouse-like"), with their closest relatives being mice (duh, given the name "murid") and other true rats, followed by gerbils and voles and hamsters. Beavers are castorimorphs (Latin for "beaver-shaped" ... you know, a lot of these Latin names sound kind of silly when you translate them), most closely related to gophers and kangaroo rats (which are not "true" rats ... this is why we said that "rat" was not very specific; any medium-sized rodent is fairly likely to have the word "rat" in at least one of its common names), and fairly closely related to the sciurids (squirrels).
