答案：1．B;2．D;3．A;4．D;5．A;6．B;7．D;8．D;9．C;10．D;11．A;12．B;13．D;14．A;15．C;
解析：

(3)	分析句意可知,这时机场用广播发布“口头公告”用announcement；declaration表示“声明,宣言”；speech“演讲”；opening“空缺；开端”，均不符合题意。
(4)	飞机出了问题,带来的应是航班“延误”或者被“取消”的结果,但从下文可知,飞机航班并没有被取消,所以B项cancelled“取消”错误。整句话的意思应为“但是正在那时,机场发布了通知,此趟航班因为飞机出了故障得晚点了”。delay“延迟,拖延”；wait“等待,等候”。故D项符合题意。
(5)	飞机没有来，“我”坐在那里应该是“等待航班”。flight“飞行，班机”；turn“转动，轮流”；name“名字”；order“命令，次序”。因为飞机没来,当然无法检票,所以order明显不对,也没人叫作者的名字，故选flight。
(6)	下一句中出现了lunch照应前文。理解全句,应为“那不是一个商务会议,而是我与一个业务上的朋友的一次愉快的午餐,而且我与这个朋友已经12年没见面了”。Negotiation“协商,谈判”；discussion“讨论”；party“集会,聚会”，均不符合语境。
(7)	we had…together为定语从句,修饰the good times and the great experiences。spend, meet, manage都不能与先行词times和experiences很好地搭配,而share表示“分享，共有”,可以与其构成完整的句意，即：“回忆起以前我们一起度过的快乐时光,我们都很开心”。
(8)	有这样额外的时间来回想我们的对话实在是太好了。回想应是在大脑中,所以mind“头脑,精神”合适；thought“思考,思想”；spirit“精神，心灵”,这两个选项不符合句意；flight“班次”,作者还没坐飞机,显然错误。
(9)	这里说的是作者的感受：“我还认识到经常回顾生命中的快乐时光的重要性”。Reminder“引起回忆的事物,提醒人的事物”；time“时间”；plan“计划”；remains“残余；遗迹”。
(10)	从上下文可知,作者认为自己很幸运,有这样一个机会来放松一下并回忆过去12年的快乐时光。break恰好能与take搭配,意思是“放松,休息”；way“路线，方式”；cut“切,削，削减”；method“方法”。
(11)	store away“贮藏,保存”；put on“穿上”；set aside“留出，撤销”；give out“分发，用尽”。分析句意,应为：“这就有点像是在看储藏在家里柜子里的老相册一样”。
(12)	看着相册,展现在眼前的应是许多精彩的”回忆”。Celebration”庆祝,庆典”；award”奖品”；memory”记忆,回忆”；present”礼物”。A、C、D三项与语境和作者要表达的内容不吻合,无法概括。
(13)	上文提到了photo album，显然文中说的应该是“照片”中的人物。呈现在你眼前的是许多精彩的回忆,它们带你回到过去的时光和场景，更重要的是，它们让你想起相片中的那些人。cupboard“橱柜”，books“书”，childhood“童年时代”都可排除，与上下文没有联系。
(14)	通过整篇文章我们分析作者此时的心情应是很愉快的。句意为：“我微笑着登上了飞机,并且意识到我对于飞机的晚点并不心烦”。Happy“高兴的”；crazy“疯狂的”；surprised“惊讶的”；upset“心烦意乱的”。结合句意，upset合适。
(15)	作者心情好的原因应是“有时间去回顾那些逝去的好时光”。第二段和第三段都提到了reflect on这个短语，意思是“仔细考虑”；take on“呈现”；seize on“抓住”；bring on“促使,导致”。
