It tk multiple weddings fr Christine Law t realize what she needed t d. In the summer f 2014, her schedule was packed with friends’ marriage celebratins—flwer­filled ccasins that gt her thinking, “Where d all the flwers g after the party？” Mre ften than nt, they were thrwn away. Law was cnfident she culd find a better use fr them.
By August, she had a plan：cnvince cuples and cmpanies hsting events t dnate their flwers, which she wuld pick up and deliver within 48 hurs t senirs acrss the city. She wanted t bring beauty int the lives f the elderly. She drew n her experience thrugh being a vlunteer in nn­prfit institutins in rder t set up her wn rganizatin, which she called Flranthrpie. Nt having enugh buquets(花束) fr all 150 peple f a health center, Law asked the staff t prvide a list f patients wh needed cheering up mst. “The first wman I apprached thught it was a mistake, and that the flwers culdn’t pssibly be fr her，” says Law. “I said they were a gift, and we talked fr a half hur.”
In additin t health centers, Flranthrpie fcuses n cmmunity grups devted t the elderly. Laëtitia Thélème is a vlunteer fr Les Petits Fières, an rganizatin that aims t help the elderly wh dn’t have a supprt system. The grup receives a dzen r s buquets frm Flranthrpie mnthly, and then redistributes them. “Our mtt is ‘flwers befre bread’，” says Thélème. “We dn’t fcus n primary care, but rather n nurishing(滋养) the spirit. Flranthrpie helps us d that. It’s amazing what a big difference a small buquet can make.”
In the beginning, mst f Flranthrpie’s dnatins came thrugh wrd f muth. These days, Law receives messages frm strangers via her rganizatin’s Facebk page and has cnnected with crpratins and flwer whlesalers.

Passage （B）
Plastic, a durable material, is prbably the definitive 20th century “md-cn”. It has prved attractive t cnsumers and manufacturers. But the tide, nw packed with an additinal 8 millin tns f plastic entering the ceans annually, is slwly turning.
The scale f the envirnmental prblem with plastic waste is astnishing. Mre than 6.3 billin tns f plastic waste has been prduced since the 1950s, mre than half f which was prduced in the past 16 years, and plastic prductin is expected t duble again in the next 20 years. Despite higher recycling rates, large amunts f plastic leak int the envirnment. Estimates suggest there will be mre plastic than fish in the sea by 2050 and there is evidence that it is present thrughut the human fd chain. An eclgically and technlgically superir replacement fr many uses f plastic is lng verdue.
Cnsumers have becme keen recyclers. Yet this is nt as gd an utcme as it seems. Even when plastics are recyclable and put in a recycling bin, the majrity still ends up in landfill, causing huge emissin prblems, r ends up in the sea.
Recycling is a cmplex, expensive, lw-prfit business. It is made harder because, althugh 95 per cent f peple in the US and EU markets recycle, nly abut 30 per cent recycle carefully enugh fr it t be usable.
Nevertheless, grwing demand fr alternatives t plastic is running ahead f the scientific breakthrughs. These are needed t ensure the envirnmental impact f replacing it is a net psitive. One ppular prpsal—using paper instead f plastic if pssible—hwever, culd exacerbates glbal warming, a mre pressing prblem.
Having turned cnsumers int keen recyclers, gvernments must ensure recycling wrk. This will require an internatinally jined-up regulatry envirnment that ensures manufacturers bear the cst f using nn-recyclable r unecnmical materials.
Equally, cnsumers shuld cntinue t demand a circular plastic ecnmy. This wuld be a wrld in which unnecessary and ec-unfriendly plastic is cmpletely remved, all plastic packaging is 100 per cent reusable r recyclable. The waste must end.
4. What des the secnd paragraph mainly tell us abut?
A. Plastic prductin.B. Life chain.
C. Material substitutin.D. Plastic prblem.
5. What des the underlined wrd “exacerbate” in the fifth paragraph mean?
A. Affect.B. Better.C. Remve.D. Wrsen.
6. What will manufactures have t d withut using recyclable materials?
A. Pay fr the utcme.B. Refund the cnsumers.
C. Abandn their prducts.D. Prvide the recycling stuff.
7. What is the authr’s purpse in writing the text?
A. T infrm us f the plastic prblem.
B. T praise cnsumers’ sense f respnsibility.
C. T suggest there is a lng way slving the plastic prblem.
D. T indicate manufacturers shuld create a safer envirnment.

D：参考答案：
人类活动导致许多动物在夜间清醒以保持警惕状态。
1．t avid 解析：考查非谓语动词。狮子、老虎以及其他的动物在夜间保持清醒旨在避开人类。此处用动词不定式作目的状语。
2．frm 解析：考查固定搭配。keep away frm...“远离……”，为固定搭配。
3．lking 解析：考查固定用法。spend time ding sth.“花时间做某事”，为固定用法。
4．frighten 解析：考查动词。最新研究表明，即使像务农和野营这样的活动也会惊吓到动物，进而导致它们夜间变得更加活跃。情态动词can后应接动词原形，故应用名词fright的动词形式frighten。
5．What 解析：考查主语从句。分析句子结构可知，空处引导主语从句且缺少主语，故用What，意为“……的事物”。
6．carefully 解析：考查副词。修饰句中的谓语动词cmpared应用副词。
7．It 解析：考查强调句型。分析句子结构可知，去掉____________ was和that之后，句子表意完整，故该句为强调句型“It was＋被强调部分＋that＋其他成分．”。
8．were published 解析：考查动词的时态和语态。根据语境可知，谓语动词publish和句子的主语Results是被动关系，且根据时间状语tw mnths ag可知，描述的是发生在过去的事情，故用一般过去时的被动语态。
9．unusual 解析：考查形容词。先前没人对此进行过如此详细的研究，所以这些新的发现显得不同寻常。
10．surprised 解析：考查过去分词。此处为过去分词作表语，表示主语Marlee Tucker的状态，故填surprised。
