Solution:

To solve this problem, we need to identify pairs of letters in the given word which have as many letters between them in the word as in the English alphabet.

Let's list down the English alphabet - A, B, C, D, E, F, G, H, I, J, K, L, M, N, O, P, Q, R, S, T, U, V, W, X, Y, Z.

We need to find pairs of letters in the word CONFUSING which have as many letters between them in the word as in the above alphabet. Let's analyze the word CONFUSING -

C O N F U S I N G

The pairs of letters that have as many letters between them in the word as in the English alphabet are -

1. C and F - There are two letters (D and E) between C and F in the word CONFUSING, just like there are two letters (D and E) between A and D in the English alphabet.

2. F and I - There are two letters (G and H) between F and I in the word CONFUSING, just like there are two letters (G and H) between D and G in the English alphabet.

3. N and Q - There are two letters (O and P) between N and Q in the word CONFUSING, just like there are two letters (O and P) between M and P in the English alphabet.

4. O and R - There are three letters (P, Q, and R) between O and R in the word CONFUSING, just like there are three letters (Q, R, and S) between L and O in the English alphabet.

5. S and V - There are two letters (T and U) between S and V in the word CONFUSING, just like there are two letters (T and U) between Q and T in the English alphabet.

6. U and X - There are two letters (V and W) between U and X in the word CONFUSING, just like there are two letters (W and X) between T and W in the English alphabet.

7. X and A - There are three letters (Y, Z, and A) between X and A in the word CONFUSING, just like there are three letters (Z, A, and B) between W and B in the English alphabet.

Hence, there are a total of 7 pairs of letters in the word CONFUSING which have as many letters between them in the word as in the English alphabet. Therefore, the correct answer is (E) - More than three.
