【要点综述】这是一篇感人的文章，作者历经千辛万苦获得了一份教师的工作，但由于初为人师，教条主义和理想化成了她教学的最大问题。

有一天老板来听课，却看到作者对学生恶劣的行为置之不理，所以只听了二十分钟便离开了，作者感觉自己可能要失去教学的工作。

她虽然没有在课堂上哭泣而坚持讲完了剩下的课，但毫无疑问，这仍然是一堂失败的课。

终于，老板告诉她问题的症结所在——没有真正了解学生。

55．C　考查推理判断。

从全文第一段提到的“In1974,afterfillingoutfiftyapplications，…”推知，在1974年要想在美国得到一份工作是非常艰难的事情，所以答案选C项。

56．A　考查推理判断。

从文章第三段的“Iwasstrugglinginmyworkasayoungidealisticteacher.”和第四段中的“IncollegeIhadbeentaught…butthetextevidentlyignoredthefact…”推知，作为一位新老师，作者过于理想化和教条主义，所学知识和现实之间有很大的差异，这是作者的问题所在，由此可知A项为最佳答案。

57．A　考查推理判断。

从文章第五段“Visionsofunemploymentmarchedbeforemyeyes.”可以推断出，当老板坐在课堂上听课，而我却对学生束手无策时，一种要丢掉工作饭碗的预感深深困扰着我，由此答案选A项。

58．C　考查细节理解。

从第六段“IfeltmildlyvictoriousthatIgotthroughtherestofclasswithoutcrying…”可知，令作者还有些成就感的是她终于顺利地上完了课，而且也没有哭，答案选C项。

59．B　考查推理判断。

从文章倒数第三段“Youhadnothingtosaytothem…”推断知，老板认为作者没有真正地对学生发问，也就是说作者没有真正地了解学生，走近学生，所以学生们在她的课堂中表现很差，答案选B项。

60．C　考查观点态度。

从倒数第三段中“Henamedmyproblemsandofferedsolutions.”知，作者的老板对作者非常友善，他指出了作者的不足并积极提供解决方法，由此可知他是一个很真诚并且给予帮助的人，故答案C项最佳。
