51.E 考查动词词组的辨析,根据上一句:A group of graduates got together to visit their old university professor.可知应该用一般过去时态,空格前是主语,此处应该是动词,结合句意:谈话一会儿就变成了各自对工作和生活压力的抱怨,故填turned into,变成.
52.I考查动词的辨析,根据上一句:the professor went to the kitchen.可知应该用一般过去时态,根据句意:教授去厨房端来一大壶咖啡,returned with…,with表示伴随的情况,故填returned,回来.
53.D考查形容词的辨析,根据下半句:glass,china,可知空格处和后面的单词词性和glass,china应该是一致的,结合句意:并拿出各式各样的咖啡杯--塑料的、玻璃的、陶瓷的、有看上去普通的、有价值不菲的、有做工精细的,故填D,塑料的.
54.A 考查动词的辨析,空格前是have,此句应该是现在完成时态,现在你们已经注意到,就会发现所有好看的昂贵的杯子都被挑走了,故填A.
55.C 考查形容词的辨析,空格前是 plain and,此处的单词和plain是并列的,根据上半句:就会发现所有好看的昂贵的杯子都被挑走了,此处应该是:剩下的只是那些普通的和便宜的,故填C
56.B考查固定词组的辨析,根据上一句:在很多时候,杯子让咖啡更昂贵,此处应该是:大部分情况下,甚至让我们看不清我们要喝的是什么,in most cases大部分情况下,故填B.
57.F考查名词的辨析,根据上半句:生活就是咖啡,此处应该是:工作,钱,社会地位就是杯子,position in society社会地位,故填F.
58.H考查副词的辨析,根据上一句:不要成为杯子的奴隶;此处应该是:而是要好好品味杯中的咖啡.故填instead,而是,代替.
