答案： 56.to 介词 【解析】“from...to...”是固定搭配，意为“从……到……”。故填to。
57.carries 动词的时态和主谓一致 【解析】分析句子结构可知，空格处是此句谓语；根据“always”及语境可知，此处指一般性事实，时态应用一般现在时；且主语“Auld Lang Syne”是第三人称单数，谓语动词也应用第三人称单数形式。故填carries。
58.considered 非谓语动词 【解析】分析句子结构可知，句中已有谓语“raised”，此处应用非谓语动词；动词consider与其逻辑主语“Burns”之间构成动宾关系，此处应用其过去分词形式作伴随状语。故填considered。
59.roughly 词性转换 【解析】分析句子结构可知，空格处应用副词修饰动词“means”。roughly大致地，粗略地，符合语境。故填roughly。
60.versions 名词的单复数 【解析】根据空前的“some”可知，此处应用可数名词version的复数形式。故填versions。

63.original 词性转换 【解析】分析句子结构可知，空格处应用形容词修饰名词“tune”。original原始的，最初的，符合语境。故填original。
64.a 冠词 【解析】此处泛指“一种不同的曲调”，应用不定冠词；且different是读音以辅音音素开头的单词，其前应用a。故填a。

长难句分析：With its emphasis on friendship and parting, Auld Lang Syne expresses the spirit of New Year’s Eve, which is saying goodbye to one year so that another can begin. (最后一段)
分析：本句是一个主从复合句。which引导非限制性定语从句，先行词是the spirit of New Year’s Eve；so that引导目的状语从句。
