【51题详解】
考查细节理解。根据第四段““I didn’t have anything t d in retirement and I didn’t think that playing bing was up t my speed, ”Fein said. She said she decided t majr in scilgy.(费恩说:“我退休后没什么事可做，我觉得玩宾果游戏跟不上我的速度。”她说她决定主修社会学)”可知，费恩想在退休后继续学习是因为费恩想要智力上的参与，并实现她长期以来的目标——获得学士学位。或回答费恩想让自己的思维保持活跃，过上更充实的生活，实现获得学位的梦想。故答案为Fein wanted intellectual engagement and t achieve her lng-standing gal f earning a bachelr’s degree./ Fein wanted t keep her mind active/have a fuller life and achieve her dream f getting her degree.
【52题详解】
考查主旨大意。根据第五段“Fein spent her childhd in the Brnx, New Yrk City, where her family lived in pverty. After graduating early frm high schl, she started wrking as a secretary at a dress manufacturer at the age f 16. Fllwing her marriage, she spent 18 years raising her children at hme. Thrughut her life, Fein held varius jbs, including 20 years as a secretary in a Dallas hspital, which she retired frm in 2012.

【54题详解】
考查词句猜测。根据划线词上文“She said that Fein never shwed signs f giving up even with all f her difficulties.(她说，费恩即使遇到种种困难，也从未表现出放弃的迹象)”以及后文“in return she received her bachelr’s degree and respect(作为回报，她获得了学士学位和尊重)”可知，费恩遇到困难也没有放弃，继续努力学习，所以她获得了学士学位和尊重。故划线词意思是“她继续努力学习”。故答案为She kept wrking hard at her studies.
【55题详解】
考查开放题。根据“你能从这个故事中学到什么？请解释一下”可回答“费恩的故事告诉我们，应该克服困难坚持学习的故事，树立终身学习的意识”，故答案为Fein’s stry tells us that we shuld vercme difficulties and persist in learning, and establish the cnsciusness f lifelng learning.
