试题分析：考查时态题。句意：—你们昨天在山区里找到那对失踪的夫妻了吗？—没有。但是我们正在在努力和他们取得联系。根据句意说明自从过去的一个时间开始到现在，我们一直都在做的事情，那么使用现在完成进行时。故B正确。
考点：考查时态
点评：时态题的考查关键是抓住句子的上下文含义和句中的时间状语。要根据时间状语来选择合适的时态，在平时的学习中要注意积累有关时态的用法和各种时态的特殊之处。如since， so far等经常与现在完成时连用。现在完成进行时表示从过去开始的动作到现在以来一直都在发生。

“Now ,”Mrs. Virginia DeView said, smiling, “we are going to discover our professions .”
The class seems to be greatly surprised. Our professions? We were only 13 and 14 years old! The teacher must be _36 _. “Yes, you will all be searching for your future  37 . Each of you will have to   38 someone in your field, plus give an oral report.”
Each day in her class, Virginia DeView reminded us about this. Finally, I picked print journalism. This _39_ I had to go to interview a true-blue newspaper reporter. I was extremely nervous. I sat down in front of him_40_ able to speak. He looked at me and said, “Did you bring a pencil or pen?”

“Well, you see, there was a teacher…”I just wish I could 55 her.
