PASSAGE
A Mandarin learner reads: '他是一个非常热心的人，总是帮助别人。' They know 热 (rè) means 'hot' and have learned 开心 (happy) and 担心 (worried), understanding that 心 frequently appears in emotion-related words. They have not seen 热心 before.
The learner considers two possible meanings for 热心: 'enthusiastic/warm-hearted' or 'hot-tempered.' Both use the character 热. Which reasoning process correctly distinguishes between these two meanings using context and word-family knowledge?
