【解答】51．patient 根据系动词be+形容词+enough+to do something的意思是有足够的什么去做什么．结合选项中的词只有patient为形容词"耐心的"．故填：patient
52．do well in．这个主要是考查的是词组help somebody do something（意思是帮助某人做某事）；helped me do well in maths（意思是帮我学好数学）do well in的意思是在某方面做的好．故填：do well in
53．always．因为told是动词故用频率副词always（意思是"总是"）修饰．故填：always
54．beacause of．根据I put in more effort and got high marks （意思是我付出了更多的努力并且得到了高分）是因为她，这里的词组beacause of（因为）后跟代词her．故填：because of

【点评】写电子邮件时，首先要看懂对方邮件的内容，弄清对方想知道的事情，最好列一下提纲，然后根据提纲进行写作就不会造成离题或偏题，但要注意，文章必须要覆盖整个要点，行文要注意简化，不要拖沓冗长，要使用正确的句子，同时注意，要使用一定的连接词，比如：first，second，what's more，finally等．再者，在作文完成时要注意检查、修改，如果有时间可以先写到草稿纸上，再抄到答题纸上，这样更容易得高分．最后，注意使用一些句型和短语，使整篇文章意思连贯、流畅，方能成就一篇好的作文．
