(2013·高考湖北卷)He didn’t selfishly keep for himself the money inherited from his uncle.Instead，he made a________contribution to help the community.
A．commercialB．generous
C．comparableD．profitable
B
選B。句意：他沒有自私地把從叔叔那里繼承的錢自己留著，而慷慨捐贈出去以幫助社區(qū)。commercial“商業(yè)的，商務的”；generous“慷慨的，大方的”；comparable“類似的；比得上的”；profitable“有利可圖的”。根據(jù)關鍵詞instead可知，前后語意相反，make a contribution表示“捐獻”，因此B項“慷慨的，大方的”符合語境。
