解答 答案是C．本题考查现在完成时；现在完成是表示"过去的动作对现在的影响或结果"或"过去的动作一直持续到现在"；本题中，航班被耽搁的已经发生，航班还未起飞，可见对现在产生了影响，故用完成时的被动语态；选C．

点评 对时态的选择，要在把握时态的基本用法的基础上，根据具体语境和题干中的时间推断时态，同时关注特殊的结构．

15．"We haven't found anything that we can't recycle!"
Cigarette ends are everywhere-littering our streets and beaches-and for decades they've been thought of as"unrecyclable"．But a New Jersey based company，called TerraCycle，has taken on the challenge，and has come up with a way to recycle millions of cigarette ends and turn them into industrial plastic products．Its aim is to recycle things that people normally consider impossible to reuse．
Obviously it would be even better for the environment if everyone just stopped smoking，but the statistics show that although there has been an increase in anti-smoking ads and messaging，between 2000 and 2014，global sales of cigarettes increased by 8percent，and a whole lot of those cigarette ends are ending up as trash．Since most of our litter eventually ends up in waterways，cigarette ends can surely pollute the surrounding environment．"It only takes a single cigarette end to pollute a liter of water，"TerraCycle founder，Tom Szaky，said．"Animals can also mistake littered cigarette ends for food．"
So how do you go about turning all those poisonous ends into something useful？TerraCycle does this by first breaking them down into separate parts．They mix the remaining materials，such as the tobacco and the paper，with other kinds of rubbish，and use it on non-agricultural land，such as golf courses．The filters （过滤嘴） are a little harder．To recycle these，TerraCycle first makes them clean and cuts them into small pieces，and then combines them with other recycled materials，making them into liquid for industrial plastic products．
They're now also expanding their recycling offerings to the rest of the 80percent of household waste that currently can't be recycled，such as chocolate packaging，pens，and mobile phones．The goal is to use the latest research to find a way to stop so much waste ending up in landfill （垃圾填埋），and then get companies to provide money for the process．And so far，it's working．
"We haven't found anything that we can't recycle，"communications director of TerraCycle，Albe Zakes，said．"But with the amount and variety of packaging and litter in the world，we are always looking for new waste streams to address．"

63．What does TerraCycle intend to do？D
A．Search for recyclable materials for use．
B．Deal with as many cigarette ends as possible．
C．Produce new kinds of industrial plastic products．
D．Recycle what used to be considered unrecyclable．
64．The underlined word"trash"in Paragraph 2 probably meansA．
A．rubbishB．poison C．disaster  D．ruin
65．What does Paragraph 3 mainly talk about？B
A．The effective use of cigarette ends．
B．The process of recycling cigarette ends．
C．The difficulty in recycling cigarette ends．
D．The reason for breaking down cigarette ends．
66．What Albe said in the last paragraph implies thatC．
A．there is more and more waste to be recycled
B．it is difficult for TerraCycle to recycle everything
C．TerraCycle is trying to meet the challenge of new waste
D．TerraCycle has successfully recycled a large amount of waste．

12．One man who sold tickets on the train from 1959 to 1965 Clive Codrington，pointed out that the tracks which passed through Knolly's Tunnel and the area of Tabaquite were not originally intended for passenger trains．"They were really used for the transport of cocoa and coffee，"he said．
Construction on Knolly's Tunnel began in 1896，and it was opened on August 13th，1898by the man it was named after---Sir Clement C．Knolly，Acting Governor of Trinidad．It linked Rio Claro with Port of Spain．Its architecture is still admired and studied today，and many are amazed that Knolly's Tunnel has stood up to the earth's movement over so many years．Much research is being done on the tunnel．At the top of Knolly's Tunnel are cottages covered with leaves，where visitors can sit and enjoy the beauty of nature．Standing at the beginning of Knolly's Tunnel，you can see nothing but the tiny light at the end．The train tracks have been removed and replaced with small stones．Visitors can drive through the tunnel or walk through，but should do so in groups for safety．In the old days，there were no lights，but now there are street lights on the way to the tunnel，though not inside．
On your way in，you may notice some manholes on the walls of the tunnel．These were there for individuals to step into for safety as the train passed．Knolly's Tunnel can be accessed through Tabaquite and through Mitchell Gap．The road was recently improved，but is better when you enter from Tabaquite，and there are signs on the road directing you to Knolly's Tunnel．
On the drive to Knolly's Tunnel there are two other cottages where visitors can sit and just enjoy nature．At the site itself，there is nothing to purchase to eat or drink，but in Tabaquite there are several bars，a restaurant，and food outlets．A gas station and a health centre are also close by．
For those who admire architecture，Knolly's Tunnel is a must-see when visiting Trinidad．For the nature lovers，there is no better place for them to be and for the historians，they can walk or drive through Knolly's Tunnel knowing that many of our ancestors toiled on its structure．So when you visit Trinidad，don't forget to take a look at Knolly's Tunnel!396

C．take a train tour through it
D．walk along the track through it

2．Eddie's father used to say he'd spent so many years by the ocean，breathing seawater．Now，away from that ocean，in the hospital bed，his body began to look like a beached fish．His condition went from fair to stable and from stable to serious．Friends went from saying，"He'll be home in a day，"to"He'll be home in a week．"In his father's absence，Eddie helped out at the pier （码头），working evenings after his taxi job．
When Eddie was a teenager，if he ever complained or seemed bored with the pier，his father would shout，"What？This isn't good enough for you？"And later，when he'd suggested Eddie take a job there after high school，Eddie almost laughed，and his father again said，"What？This isn't enough good for you？"And before Eddie went to the war，when he'd talked of marrying Marguerite and becoming an engineer，his father said，"What？This isn't enough good for you？"
And now，regardless of all that，here he was，at the pier，doing his father's labor．
Parents rarely let go of their children，so children let go of them．They move on．They move away．It is not until much later，as the heart weakens，that children understand：their stories，and all their accomplishments sit on top of the stories of their mothers and fathers，stones and stones，beneath the waters of their lives．
Finally，one night，at his mother's urging，Eddie visited the hospital．He entered the room slowly．His father，who for years had refused to speak to Eddie，now lacked the strength to even try．
"Don't sweat it，kid，"the other workers told him．"Your old man will pull through．He is the toughest man we've seen．"
When the news came that his father had died，Eddie felt the emptiest kind of anger，the kind that circled in its cage．
In the weeks that followed，Eddie's mother lived in a confused state．She spoke to her husband as if he were still there．She yelled at him to turn down the radio．She cooked enough food for two．One night，when Eddie offered to help with the dishes，she said，"Your father will put them away．"Eddie put a hand on her shoulder．"Mom，"he said，softly，"Dad's gone．"
"Gone where？"
