KEY: CF
  关键词:be confused with表示否定,分号表示复指空格中应该填入一个名词,表示“她”所具有的一种特质。而这种特质往往会被confused with miserliness,这里be confused with与not两个表示否定的结构同时存在,因而对应词语应该是同义关系。而本题中miserliness表示“不大方、吝啬之意”,选项中有两组都可以表示“不大方”的同义词,因此应该选什么,要看后半句说了什么。后半句与前半句通过分号连接,因而是复指关系,后半句说“她”实际上并不是一个吝啬之人,而是非常热心帮助别人的人,在后半句中对于这个“她”是一个正评价,因此在前半句中对于“她”的描述也应该通过复指关系前后一致的特点,选取一组相对正的评价填进去。词语解释:
