第二部分：阅读理解（共20小题；每小题2. 5分, 满分50分）
阅读下列短文, 从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中, 选出最佳选项。
A
Our university provides an extensive range of courses for undergraduates and graduate students, including BA and PhD programs, as well as the opportunity to pursue a minor in creative writing. Our curriculum offers a wide variety of educational options to suit diverse academic interests and career goals.
Writing the musical book
Study and create the dramatic text of musical theater. The course starts with a grounding in the basics of text writing by studying outstanding examples of book writing, from Arthur Laurent’s Gypsy to Brian Yorkey's Pulitzer-winning Next To Normal. Students write a series of short scenes (5-10 pages) to be read aloud and critiqued (评判) in class, with the ultimate goal of completing an original or adapted book for a one-act musical (30-60 pages).
Introduction to creative writing
Learning to write creatively is like learning to sing in that the writer is being her own instrument. The writer’s specific sensibility and especial competencies determine the range of excellence that the writer can comfortably operate in.
This course will focus on three genres: poetry, creative non-fiction, and fiction. More particularly, the course will focus on the sonnet, the profile, and the short story. Each section will feed into the next: the stanza (诗节) preparing us for the paragraph, and the interview leading into third person point-of-view.
Because learning to write creatively involves developing a form of muscle memory, there will be almost daily writing exercises. There will also be, and equally importantly, a daily writer’s diary of the experience of performing the exercise.
Duke in London: Arts
This course surveys London as a site of dynamic cultural production, whose participation in the global marketplace of artistic commodities (商品) reveals the city’s restlessly transnational, worldwide character. Studying local institutions, students are introduced to the complex relationship among art, state, and the global cultural marketplace. Students also participate in trips including dance, opera, and theater productions and visits to museums and other sites of cultural importance.
Understanding Film and Media
This course takes students through a critical exploration of the global film industry and various media platforms. Students will study film production, global media history, and socio-political impacts of films and media. The course will also touch upon the evolving aspects of media, including digital media, online platforms, and their economical and cultural impact.
36. What do the first and second courses have in common
A. They both give students daily writing exercises.
B. They both encourage students to learn step by step.
C. They both ask students to adapt books for musicals.
D. They both require students to read their stories in class.
37. What genre will “Introduction to creative writing” focus on
A. Poetry, creative non-fiction, and film script.
B. Musical, creative non-fiction, and fiction.
C. Poetry, creative non-fiction, and fiction.
D. Poetry, modern drama, and fiction.
38. What distinctive feature is included in the “Introduction to creative writing” course
A. Developing daily writing habits.
B. Focus on completing an original book.
C. Writing and analyzing a series of short scenes.
D. Exploring the relationship between art and state.
39. What is special about “Duke in London: Arts”
A. It cultivates students' writing skills.
B. It offers students different ways to learn.
C. It focuses on the history of London's art scene.
D. It introduces a virtual tour of London's attractions.
40. What is the primary emphasis of the course “Understanding Film and Media”

On a cold morning in May, I received a fascinating email from a high school friend. inviting me to a 10-day all-female surfing adventure in Portugal. The offer was irresistible, and I instantly knew my answer was yes.
The trip seemed simple enough. Ten women, ranging from 30 to 45 years old, all strangers, will gather on the Portuguese coast to embrace the challenge of surfing the Atlantic waves.
As a travel enthusiast, I quickly sought permission from my boss for this once-in-a- lifetime journey.
Through my 33 years, I’ve observed a common adult tendency: we often limit ourselves to refining skills we already possess. There’s a certain pride in improving our expertise, becoming increasingly knowledgeable in our chosen fields, yet unintentionally, this focus often leaves other skills undeveloped and leads to neglecting other areas of potential growth.
Two days later, I arrived in Ericeira, a charming surf town, where I met my surfing group. Despite our different personalities and backgrounds, we were all united in a persistent desire to challenge ourselves, learn, tackle and grow.
The shores at Ericeira, where the beginners learn to surf, are shallow and covered with slippery rocks. They make for softer waves but are difficult to navigate (驾驭).
Guided by our amazing coaches, together, we faced the waves. Sometimes, it poured with rain, and the waves crashed around us, but we were still out there. And with every slip and fall, words of encouragement filled the air.
Honestly, I probably spent most of my days frozen to the bone, but that didn’t matter because a new level of genuine joy and personal achievement had been unlocked.
Learning a new skill taught me the humbleness that can come from doing badly at something new, and the pride that develops when you finally manage to grasp something you’ve been working on.
While surfing might not be my calling, trying it out inspired me to take more risks in life, to step outside of my comfort zone and to never stop believing in myself. You never know what you’re capable of if you don’t go out there and try.
41. What motivated the author to join the surf trip to Portugal
A. The opportunity to improve existing skills.
B. The need to reconnect with a high school friend.
C. The chance to undertake work duties in Portugal.
D. The desire to embrace a challenge and learn a new skill.
42. What is the author’s view on adults focusing on mastering one field
A. It narrows one’s abilities. B. It is essential for career success.
C. It disrupts one’s work-life balance. D. It develops creativity and exploration.
43. Which of the following words best describe the author’s surfing experience
A. Tough but rewarding. B. Boring and uneventful.
C. Difficult and frustrating. D. Relaxing but unpredictable.
44. What can be inferred about the author
A. She used to lack confidence in herself.
B. She became more willing to take risks.
C. She went on to become an expert surfer.
D. She discovered the surfing was her true calling.
45. What wisdom did the author gain from the experience with surfing
A. The value of pushing your limits and trying new things.
B. The need to seek professional training in all new skills.
C. The benefit of traveling with unknown companions.
D. The importance of being an expert in one field.
C
Since 2001, robotic tools have revolutionized the practice of surgery. They have greatly reduced the stress and physical demands normally placed on surgeons and have made certain procedures possible.
One example is "keyhole surgery", or minimally invasive (微创) surgery, which normally requires surgeons to stand at awkward angles and make difficult movements with their hands to make a cut inside the patient. But in June 2022, surgeon James Ansell used 3D glasses and two joysticks (操纵杆) to control four robotic arms to perform a procedure to remove a cancerous tumor (肿瘤). "My colleague said . that this feels like cheating, " Ansell said to The Guardian.
Another area of surgery that has had major technological breakthroughs in recent years is telesurgery. Telesurgery, or remote surgery, is the use of technology that allows a surgeon to perform a procedure on a patient not in the same physical location.
Normally, telesurgery relies on a wired connection due to concerns of harming the patient if a wireless connection were to drop during surgery, but China made several advancements in wireless telesurgery based on 5G technology.
China achieved the first 5G-based remote operation in March 2019 involving a brain surgery procedure between a surgeon in Sanya and a patient in Beijing, a distance totaling nearly 3, 000 kilometers, reported CGTN. More recently, a team of surgeons successfully completed remote micron-level eye surgery on rabbits located in a different city, reported China Daily. The rabbits were at the Sun Yat-sen University in Guangzhou, Guangdong province, whereas the surgical team who operated on them via a 5G robot were at the Hainan Eye Hospital in Haikou, Hainan province.
Looking to the future, people hope that remote surgery could become commonplace to help heal injured soldiers on the battlefield while keeping surgeons at a safe distance. Some even believe that robotic systems, combined with AI, could one day surpass human surgeons. In 2022, engineers at Johns Hopkins University in the US used their Smart Tissue Autonomous Robot (STAR) to suture (缝合)the ends of a severed intestine (断肠) in four pigs, showing that certain procedures can be done autonomously by robots.
But, given current technological limitations and the high costs of these robots which can cost millions of dollars, the complete robot takeover of surgery may still be a while off.
46. What does the "keyhole surgery" example intend to show
A. The complexity of robotic surgery.
B. The challenges in using robotic tools.
C. The progress enabled by robotic tools.
D. The need for advanced 3D technology.
47. What significant achievement did China make in the field of telesurgery
A. Achieving remote surgery using a wired connection.
B. Completing remote eye surgery on humans successfully.
C. Conducting the first 5G-based remote operation on rabbits.
D. Performing the first wireless brain surgery with 5G technology.
48. What can be inferred about robots in the medical field from the passage
A. They have not yet been in use.
B. They are currently in high demand.
C. They have surpassed human capabilities.
D. Their development still has a long way to go.
49. What prevents the widespread adoption of robotic surgery systems
A. Unavailability of 5G technology.
B. Resistance from medical institutions.
C. Technological limitations and high costs.
D. Lack of skilled surgeons to operate them.
50. What is the main idea of the passage
A. The benefits of remote surgery.
B. China's achievements in surgery.
C. The advancements in medical robotics.
D. The use of 5G technology in robotic surgery.
D
When things don’t seem to go right, what’s your first thought Do you just give up or do you make a promise to try a different approach If you give up the effort simply because you’ve run into difficulty, you’re not only giving yourself a reason to call yourself a failure, you’re also depriving (剥夺) yourself of the opportunity to learn.
Nothing in life stays the same. Everything is always in a state of change. Your ability to recognize change and make peace with it, while also finding the flexibility to adapt to changing conditions, will determine how effectively you can continue making progress toward your life goals.
Indeed, when you discover and accept your ability to be flexible, all things are possible. That’s because the realization that there are other ways to go about dealing with what happens in life and to find ways around seemingly impossible difficulties makes you stronger, more self-confident and satisfied. It also greatly improves your perception (感知) of your abilities.
Consider that overcoming difficulties is quite an achievement. When you combine that with the confidence you feel in being able to analyze and put together a workable approach or solution, you wind up with a positive outcome overall. This satisfying result adds to your motivation to solve the next item on your list, to go for another goal that may be a bit more challenging.
This ability to overcome difficulties doesn’t come about automatically, yet it is a talent you can foster. Indeed, it may seem like a losing plan, especially if you don’t see results right away. Instead of losing hope, keep on going.
Have you ever disappointed yourself despite your efforts when you’ve encountered challenges in adapting to changing circumstances Suppose you haven’t been able to figure out a way around them or couldn’t determine a workable approach. Is this a terrible thing Does it mean you’re certain to forever be at the end of the line when it comes to accomplishments It’s not like that. What it does indicate, however, is that you may yet keep some unforgiving thoughts about your own abilities. You may, for example, not trust your instincts (本能) or you might not believe you’re capable enough of taking a calculated risk.
51. We can infer from the first paragraph that ______.
A. running into difficulty is a valid reason to stop trying
B. it’s a rare thing for people to have a good opportunity
C. facing challenges offers learning and growth opportunities
D. it’s better to give up than persist when faced with difficulty
52. What do Paragraph 2 and Paragraph 3 talk about
A. Adapting and persisting through change to achieve goals.
B. Changing conditions to create new opportunities.
C. Accepting failure when faced with difficulties.
D. Giving up to avoid further complications.
53. What can drive you to move forward successfully
A. Engaging in self-criticism for every perceived failure.
B. Missing chances to gain insights from challenging situations.
C. Abandoning efforts when confronted with a difficult challenge.
D. Conquering challenges with confidence and achieving positive results.
54. What might be the cause of failing to adapt to changing conditions
A. You may have negative thoughts about your own abilities.
B. You may have a strong capability for taking calculated risks.
C. You are likely to give up on accomplishing anything significant.
D. You are guaranteed to be always at the forefront of achievements.
55. What message does the passage convey
A. The importance of avoiding difficulties. B. The need to give up when facing challenges.
C. The benefits of staying in your comfort zone. D. The significance of flexibility and adapting to change.

Many people, some even at a very young age, set the goal of graduating from college. One American woman in Texas waited a long time for her chance to reach that goal.
The woman is 84-year-old Janet Fein. Last week, she received her bachelor’s degree from the University of Texas at Dallas.
Fein has had a full life. She has raised five children and then had a career as a secretary until she retired at age 77. But even then, she was not ready to take it easy and rest during a well-earned retirement.
“I didn’t have anything to do in retirement and I didn’t think that playing bingo was up to my speed, ”Fein said. She said she decided to major in sociology.
Fein spent her childhood in the Bronx, New York City, where her family lived in poverty. After graduating early from high school, she started working as a secretary at a dress manufacturer at the age of 16. Following her marriage, she spent 18 years raising her children at home. Throughout her life, Fein held various jobs, including 20 years as a secretary in a Dallas hospital, which she retired from in 2012. She also devoted 20 years to earning an associate degree, which she received in 1995.
Fein, despite her life experiences, had a strong desire to earn a bachelor’s degree. She found joy in reading, writing papers, and learning new things. Taking advantage of a state program, she joined around 2, 000 others aged 65 and older in Texas who attend public university classes for free. Although less than 1% of U. S. college students are in this age group, health experts believe continuing education later in life can help maintain fitness. Despite worsening health conditions, Fein persevered, using a walker and oxygen, and even completing the remaining degree requirements through online classes.
Her college advisor was Sheila Rollerson. She said that Fein never showed signs of giving up even with all of her difficulties. “She was plugging away at her studies and in return she received her bachelor’s degree and respect, ” Rollerson said.
Renee Brown, one of Fein’s caregivers, found inspiration from her. At 53, Brown plans to begin nursing school, encouraged by Fein’s words of confidence and the fulfillment that comes with achievement.
56. Why did Fein want to study after retiring (no more than 15 words)

阅读下列短文, 从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中, 选出最佳选项。
A
Our university provides an extensive range of courses for undergraduates and graduate students, including BA and PhD programs, as well as the opportunity to pursue a minor in creative writing. Our curriculum offers a wide variety of educational options to suit diverse academic interests and career goals.
Writing the musical book
Study and create the dramatic text of musical theater. The course starts with a grounding in the basics of text writing by studying outstanding examples of book writing, from Arthur Laurent’s Gypsy to Brian Yorkey's Pulitzer-winning Next To Normal. Students write a series of short scenes (5-10 pages) to be read aloud and critiqued (评判) in class, with the ultimate goal of completing an original or adapted book for a one-act musical (30-60 pages).
Introduction to creative writing
Learning to write creatively is like learning to sing, in that the writer is being her own instrument. The writer’s specific sensibility and especial competencies determine the range of excellence that the writer can comfortably operate in.
This course will focus on three genres: poetry, creative non-fiction, and fiction. More particularly, the course will focus on the sonnet, the profile, and the short story. Each section will feed into the next: the stanza (诗节) preparing us for the paragraph, and the interview leading into third person point-of-view.
Because learning to write creatively involves developing a form of muscle memory, there will be almost daily writing exercises. There will also be, and equally importantly, a daily writer’s diary of the experience of performing the exercise.
Duke in London: Arts
This course surveys London as a site of dynamic cultural production, whose participation in the global marketplace of artistic commodities (商品) reveals the city’s restlessly transnational, worldwide character. Studying local institutions, students are introduced to the complex relationship among art, state, and the global cultural marketplace. Students also participate in trips including dance, opera, and theater productions and visits to museums and other sites of cultural importance.
Understanding Film and Media
This course takes students through a critical exploration of the global film industry and various media platforms. Students will study film production, global media history, and socio-political impacts of films and media. The course will also touch upon the evolving aspects of media, including digital media, online platforms, and their economical and cultural impact.

On a cold morning in May, I received a fascinating email from a high school friend. inviting me to a 10-day all-female surfing adventure in Portugal. The offer was irresistible, and I instantly knew my answer was yes.
The trip seemed simple enough. Ten women, ranging from 30 to 45 years old, all strangers, will gather on the Portuguese coast to embrace the challenge of surfing the Atlantic waves.
As a travel enthusiast, I quickly sought permission from my boss for this once-in-a- lifetime journey.
Through my 33 years, I’ve observed a common adult tendency: we often limit ourselves to refining skills we already possess. There’s a certain pride in improving our expertise, becoming increasingly knowledgeable in our chosen fields, yet unintentionally, this focus often leaves other skills undeveloped and leads to neglecting other areas of potential growth.
Two days later, I arrived in Ericeira, a charming surf town, where I met my surfing group. Despite our different personalities and backgrounds, we were all united in a persistent desire to challenge ourselves, learn, tackle and grow.
The shores at Ericeira, where the beginners learn to surf, are shallow and covered with slippery rocks. They make for softer waves but are difficult to navigate (驾驭).
Guided by our amazing coaches, together, we faced the waves. Sometimes, it poured with rain, and the waves crashed around us, but we were still out there. And with every slip and fall, words of encouragement filled the air.
Honestly, I probably spent most of my days frozen to the bone, but that didn’t matter because a new level of genuine joy and personal achievement had been unlocked.
Learning a new skill taught me the humbleness that can come from doing badly at something new, and the pride that develops when you finally manage to grasp something you’ve been working on.
While surfing might not be my calling, trying it out inspired me to take more risks in life, to step outside of my comfort zone and to never stop believing in myself. You never know what you’re capable of if you don’t go out there and try.

Since 2001, robotic tools have revolutionized the practice of surgery. They have greatly reduced the stress and physical demands normally placed on surgeons and have made certain procedures possible.
One example is "keyhole surgery", or minimally invasive (微创) surgery, which normally requires surgeons to stand at awkward angles and make difficult movements with their hands to make a cut inside the patient. But in June 2022, surgeon James Ansell used 3D glasses and two joysticks (操纵杆) to control four robotic arms to perform a procedure to remove a cancerous tumor (肿瘤). "My colleague said . that this feels like cheating, " Ansell said to The Guardian.
Another area of surgery that has had major technological breakthroughs in recent years is telesurgery. Telesurgery, or remote surgery, is the use of technology that allows a surgeon to perform a procedure on a patient not in the same physical location.
Normally, telesurgery relies on a wired connection due to concerns of harming the patient if a wireless connection were to drop during surgery, but China made several advancements in wireless telesurgery based on 5G technology.
China achieved the first 5G-based remote operation in March 2019 involving a brain surgery procedure between a surgeon in Sanya and a patient in Beijing, a distance totaling nearly 3, 000 kilometers, reported CGTN. More recently, a team of surgeons successfully completed remote micron-level eye surgery on rabbits located in a different city, reported China Daily. The rabbits were at the Sun Yat-sen University in Guangzhou, Guangdong province, whereas the surgical team who operated on them via a 5G robot were at the Hainan Eye Hospital in Haikou, Hainan province.
Looking to the future, people hope that remote surgery could become commonplace to help heal injured soldiers on the battlefield while keeping surgeons at a safe distance. Some even believe that robotic systems, combined with AI, could one day surpass human surgeons. In 2022, engineers at Johns Hopkins University in the US used their Smart Tissue Autonomous Robot (STAR) to suture (缝合)the ends of a severed intestine (断肠) in four pigs, showing that certain procedures can be done autonomously by robots.
But, given current technological limitations and the high costs of these robots which can cost millions of dollars, the complete robot takeover of surgery may still be a while off.
46. What does the "keyhole surgery" example intend to show
A. The complexity of robotic surgery.
B. The challenges in using robotic tools.
C. The progress enabled by robotic tools.
D. The need for advanced 3D technology.
47. What significant achievement did China make in the field of telesurgery
A. Achieving remote surgery using a wired connection.
B. Completing remote eye surgery on humans successfully.
C. Conducting the first 5G-based remote operation on rabbits.
D. Performing the first wireless brain surgery with 5G technology.
48. What can be inferred about robots in the medical field from the passage
A. They have not yet been in use.
B. They are currently in high demand.
C. They have surpassed human capabilities.
D. Their development still has a long way to go.
49. What prevents the widespread adoption of robotic surgery systems
A. Unavailability of 5G technology.
B. Resistance from medical institutions.
C. Technological limitations and high costs.
D. Lack of skilled surgeons to operate them.
50. What is the main idea of the passage

When things don’t seem to go right, what’s your first thought Do you just give up or do you make a promise to try a different approach If you give up the effort simply because you’ve run into difficulty, you’re not only giving yourself a reason to call yourself a failure, you’re also depriving (剥夺) yourself of the opportunity to learn.
Nothing in life stays the same. Everything is always in a state of change. Your ability to recognize change and make peace with it, while also finding the flexibility to adapt to changing conditions, will determine how effectively you can continue making progress toward your life goals.
Indeed, when you discover and accept your ability to be flexible, all things are possible. That’s because the realization that there are other ways to go about dealing with what happens in life and to find ways around seemingly impossible difficulties makes you stronger, more self-confident and satisfied. It also greatly improves your perception (感知) of your abilities.
Consider that overcoming difficulties is quite an achievement. When you combine that with the confidence you feel in being able to analyze and put together a workable approach or solution, you wind up with a positive outcome overall. This satisfying result adds to your motivation to solve the next item on your list, to go for another goal that may be a bit more challenging.
This ability to overcome difficulties doesn’t come about automatically, yet it is a talent you can foster. Indeed, it may seem like a losing plan, especially if you don’t see results right away. Instead of losing hope, keep on going.
Have you ever disappointed yourself despite your efforts when you’ve encountered challenges in adapting to changing circumstances Suppose you haven’t been able to figure out a way around them or couldn’t determine a workable approach. Is this a terrible thing Does it mean you’re certain to forever be at the end of the line when it comes to accomplishments It’s not like that. What it does indicate, however, is that you may yet keep some unforgiving thoughts about your own abilities. You may, for example, not trust your instincts (本能) or you might not believe you’re capable enough of taking a calculated risk.
51. We can infer from the first paragraph that ______.
A. running into difficulty is a valid reason to stop trying
B. it’s a rare thing for people to have a good opportunity
C. facing challenges offers learning and growth opportunities
D. it’s better to give up than persist when faced with difficulty
52. What do Paragraph 2 and Paragraph 3 talk about
A. Adapting and persisting through change to achieve goals.
B. Changing conditions to create new opportunities.
C. Accepting failure when faced with difficulties.
D. Giving up to avoid further complications.
53. What can drive you to move forward successfully
A. Engaging in self-criticism for every perceived failure.
B. Missing chances to gain insights from challenging situations.
C. Abandoning efforts when confronted with a difficult challenge.
D. Conquering challenges with confidence and achieving positive results.
54. What might be the cause of failing to adapt to changing conditions
A. You may have negative thoughts about your own abilities.
B. You may have a strong capability for taking calculated risks.
C. You are likely to give up on accomplishing anything significant.
D. You are guaranteed to be always at the forefront of achievements.
55. What message does the passage convey
A. The importance of avoiding difficulties. B. The need to give up when facing challenges.
C. The benefits of staying in your comfort zone. D. The significance of flexibility and adapting to change.
【答案】51. C 52. A 53. D 54. A 55. D

Many people, some even at a very young age, set the goal of graduating from college. One American woman in Texas waited a long time for her chance to reach that goal.
The woman is 84-year-old Janet Fein. Last week, she received her bachelor’s degree from the University of Texas at Dallas.
Fein has had a full life. She has raised five children and then had a career as a secretary until she retired at age 77. But even then, she was not ready to take it easy and rest during a well-earned retirement.
“I didn’t have anything to do in retirement and I didn’t think that playing bingo was up to my speed, ”Fein said. She said she decided to major in sociology.
Fein spent her childhood in the Bronx, New York City, where her family lived in poverty. After graduating early from high school, she started working as a secretary at a dress manufacturer at the age of 16. Following her marriage, she spent 18 years raising her children at home. Throughout her life, Fein held various jobs, including 20 years as a secretary in a Dallas hospital, which she retired from in 2012. She also devoted 20 years to earning an associate degree, which she received in 1995.
Fein, despite her life experiences, had a strong desire to earn a bachelor’s degree. She found joy in reading, writing papers, and learning new things. Taking advantage of a state program, she joined around 2, 000 others aged 65 and older in Texas who attend public university classes for free. Although less than 1% of U. S. college students are in this age group, health experts believe continuing education later in life can help maintain fitness. Despite worsening health conditions, Fein persevered, using a walker and oxygen, and even completing the remaining degree requirements through online classes.
Her college advisor was Sheila Rollerson. She said that Fein never showed signs of giving up even with all of her difficulties. “She was plugging away at her studies and in return she received her bachelor’s degree and respect, ” Rollerson said.
Renee Brown, one of Fein’s caregivers, found inspiration from her. At 53, Brown plans to begin nursing school, encouraged by Fein’s words of confidence and the fulfillment that comes with achievement.
56 Why did Fein want to study after retiring (no more than 15 words)
_____________________________________________________________________________
57. What does Paragraph 5 mainly talk about (no more than 5 words)
______________________________________________________________________________
58. Why did Fein take online classes to finish the last part of her degree requirements (no more than 5 words)

【答案】56. Fein wanted intellectual engagement and to achieve her long-standing goal of earning a bachelor’s degree./ Fein wanted to keep her mind active/have a fuller life and achieve her dream of getting her degree.
57. Fein’s life experience.
58. Because of her bad health.
59. She kept working hard at her studies.
60. Fein’s story tells us that we should overcome difficulties and persist in learning, and establish the consciousness of lifelong learning.
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了一位84岁的老人实现了从大学毕业的人生目标的励志故事。
【56题详解】
考查细节理解。根据第四段““I didn’t have anything to do in retirement and I didn’t think that playing bingo was up to my speed, ”Fein said. She said she decided to major in sociology.(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 to achieve her long-standing goal of earning a bachelor’s degree./ Fein wanted to keep her mind active/have a fuller life and achieve her dream of getting her degree.
【57题详解】
考查主旨大意。根据第五段“Fein spent her childhood in the Bronx, New York City, where her family lived in poverty. After graduating early from high school, she started working as a secretary at a dress manufacturer at the age of 16. Following her marriage, she spent 18 years raising her children at home. Throughout her life, Fein held various jobs, including 20 years as a secretary in a Dallas hospital, which she retired from in 2012. She also devoted 20 years to earning an associate degree, which she received in 1995.(费恩的童年是在纽约市布朗克斯度过的，她的家庭生活贫困。高中提前毕业后，她在16岁时开始在一家服装制造商担任秘书。婚后，她花了18年的时间在家抚养孩子。在她的一生中，费恩做过各种各样的工作，包括在达拉斯一家医院做了20年的秘书，她于2012年退休。她还花了20年时间获得了副学士学位，并于1995年获得了学位)”可知，第5段主要讲了费恩的人生经历。故答案为Fein’s life experience.
【58题详解】
考查细节理解。根据倒数第三段“Despite worsening health conditions, Fein persevered, using a walker and oxygen, and even completing the remaining degree requirements through online classes.(尽管健康状况不断恶化，费恩还是坚持了下来，使用助行器和氧气，甚至通过在线课程完成了剩余的学位要求)”可知，费恩参加网络课程来完成她学位要求的最后一部分是因为她身体不好。故答案为Because of her bad health.
【59题详解】
考查词句猜测。根据划线词上文“She said that Fein never showed signs of giving up even with all of 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 bachelor’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 working hard at her studies.
【60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 story tells us that we should overcome difficulties and persist in learning, and establish the consciousness of lifelong learning.
