One thing we all do now and again is to lose our __54 with a friend or close relative.The odd thing is that we more often display great __55 towards someone we are fond of than towards __56 .The explanation may be that we see friends and relatives as a kind of safety net, an opportunity to __57 a bit of steam in a safe environment,while the consequences (后果)of __58   a stranger could be far more serious.

51.point的意思是“意义，目的，用途”。There's no point in doing sth.的意思是“做某事毫无意义。”答案为C。
52.it's no use crying over spilt milk是一个谚语，意思是“为溢出的牛奶而哭泣是没有用的。”it是形式主语，动名词短语是真正的主语。答案为A。 
53.由于空白紧接在why的后面，增加了试题的难度。why引导的是宾语从句，后面省略了it happened because引导的是原因状语从句。这句话的意思是“然而，在准确地考虑发生了什么和为什么发生这些事之后我们会有一些收获，因为，我们可以在将来引以为戒。”正确地分析句子的结构和意思可以帮助我们作出正确的选择。答案为B。
54.这是一个难度系数比较大的题目。上下文几乎没有提供任何线索，并且，是否作对这道题
目对下面几道题目的选择有直接的影响。lose和所给的名词搭配：lose one's mind的意思
是“失去理智，疯了”；lose one's temper的意思是“发脾气”；lose one's memory的意思是“失去记忆”。根据它们含义的区别和下文的内容可以确定，选择temper比较合适。答案为D。 
55.如果正确地做出上一道题，做这道题就不困难了。display great anger是“大发雷霆”。答案为A。 
56.这段中的a stranger为作出正确选择提供了线索。另外，选项B(friends)、C(relatives)和D(colleagues)都是熟悉的人，与选项A(strangers)相对。奇怪的是，我们对自己喜爱的人大发雷霆的次数要比对陌生人大发雷霆的次数多。答案为A。 
57.let off a bit of steam是一种比喻，意思是“发泄”。答案为D。
58.insulting的意思是“侮辱，对……无礼”。对别人大发雷霆是对别人的一种无礼行为。这句话的意思是“可以这样解释，我们把朋友和亲戚当作我们的一种安全网，为我们提供了一种在安全的环境中发泄自己感情的机会，而对陌生人无礼的结果要严重多了。”A.inviting“邀请”；C.speaking to“对……说”；D.believing in“信任”，均不正确。答案为B。 
59.case的意思是“事实”。诚实一般被认为是一种美德，这是不容置疑的事实。A.issue“发行”；C.event“重大事件”；D.factor“要素”，均不符合题意。答案为B。 
60.所提供的情境Perhaps we should have kept our mouths shut?表明，选择excitement(激动)、happiness(幸福)和pride(骄傲)不会产生这样的疑问。换句话说，我们偶然有这样的经历，当我们向别人说出了我们的思想，倾吐了我们的感情，然后，我们内心充满了犯罪感。答案为D。
