It took multiple weddings for Christine Law to realize what she needed to do. In the summer of 2014, her
schedule was packed with friends, marriage celebrations—flowers --- filled occasions that got her thinking, “Where do all the flowers go after the party?” More often than not, they were thrown out. Law, then 27, was confident she could find a better use for them.
By August, she had a plan: convince couples and companies hosting events to donate their flowers, which she would pick up and deliver within 48 hours to seniors across the city. She wanted to bring beauty into the lives of the elderly. She drew on her experience volunteering with non-profits in order to set up her own organization, which she called Floranthropie. Not having enough bouquets (花束) for all 150 people of a health center, Law asked the staff to provide a list of patients who needed cheering up most, “The first woman I approached thought it was a mistake, and that the flowers couldn’t possibly be for her,” says Law. “I said they were a gift, and we talked for a half hour.”
In addition to health centers, Floranthropie focuses on community groups devoted to the elderly. Theleme is a volunteer for Les Petits Fieres, an organization that aims to help the elderly who don’t have a support system. The group receives a dozen or so bouquets from Floranthropie monthly, and then redistributes them. “Our motto is ‘flowers before bread,” says Theleme. “We don’t focus on
primary care, but rather on nourishing (滋养) the spirit. Floranthropie helps that. It’s amazing what a big difference a small bouquet can make.”
In the beginning, most of Floranthropie’s donations came through word of mouth. These days, Law receives
messages from strangers via her organization’s Facebook page and has connected with corporations and flower wholesalers. Law hopes to expand Floranthropie nationally, but at this point is happy to be able to oversee each delivery personally.
24.What made Christine Law set up Floranthropie?
A. The Waste of flowers. B. The loneliness of seniors.
C. The persuasion of other friends. D. The warm atmosphere of weddings.
25.What was the woman’s first reaction to Christine Law’s flowers?
A. She was moved. B. She was excited.
C. She was worried. D. She was surprised.
26.What can we infer about Floranthropie from Laetitia Theleme’s words?
A. It should focus on primary care.
B. It is benefiting more than the elderly.
C. It is doing something of great importance.
D. It should cooperate with more non-profits.
27.What is the best title for the text?
A. Volunteer Your Time B. Don’t Throw Them Out
C. Special Delivery Makes Your Day D. Brighten Seniors’ Lives With Flowers

Chinese researchers say they have come up with a simple way to find out a person’s biological age —how much the body has aged physically – through a urine (尿) test.
Their findings will help researchers conduct numbers of ageing studies and even predict a person’s risk of age-related diseases, according to a paper published in the journal Frontiers in Ageing Neuroscience.
Another paper by researchers at the Beijing Hospital and the West China Hospital in Chengdu, Sichuan province, said on Tuesday that people aged at different rates due to changes in their genetic make-up and their environment.
Chronological age – which is based on one’s birth date —was an inaccurate measure of biological age so a more accurate method was needed, the team said.
Ageing is driven by the lifelong gradual accumulation of a broad variety of molecular (分子) faults in the body’s cells. The team said they had identified a matter —8-oxoGsn — that indicated increases in oxidative (氧化性) damage in urine as people’s bodies aged.
Cai Jianping, a co-author at the Beijing Hospital, said: “As we age, we suffer increasing oxidative damage and
so the levels of oxidative matters increase in our body.” The team tested the levels of 8-oxoGsn in urine samples from 1,228 Chinese people aged two to 90 and concluded the marker helped accurately determine the stage of biological ageing in adults.
They had previously found that 8-oxoGsn levels also increased with age in the urine of animals such as mice. The team has also developed a rapid analysis technique called ultra-high-performance liquid chromatography,
which can process up to 10 urine samples an hour, according to the study.
32.Scientifically speaking, by what does a doctor judge the stage of a person getting old?
A. His condition. B. His biological age.
C. His psychology. D. His chronological age.
33.What are the outer factors the speed of one’s ageing physically depend on?
A. One’s birth date.
B. The increases in oxidative damage in urine.
C. The changes in their genetic make-up and their environment.
D. The accumulation of various molecular faults in the body’s cells.
34.Which can take the place of the underlined word “marker” in the sixth paragraph?
A. 8-oxoGsn.
B. Molecular faults.
C. Oxidative damage.
D. Stage of biological ageing in adults.
35.What is the passage about?
A. Why people are ageing.
B. How to delay people’s ageing physically.
C. What determines the stage of people’s ageing physically.
D. A rapid method with which to judge how much people are aging physically 第二节 (共 5 小题;每小题 2 分,满分 10 分)

Make sure your estate(财产) plan keeps up with life changes
Few things are as important as estate planning. If you don’t handle your business while you’re alive, the
ramifications(影响) can run deep and wide long after you’re gone.
Estate planning may seem discouraging because it deals with issues of aging. Or maybe you think estate
planning is only something folks like Bill Gates do. It’s for everybody. Here’s how.
What’s an estate plan? Think of estate planning as a set of legal documents that spell out who gets your possession when you die, who you want to make medical decisions, who should make financial decisions on your behalf, and more.
This is not a one-shot deal. It’s great that you finally got your will done, have your medical directives in place,
and gave someone power of attorney.
Life is changing. Your documents should keep pace with
change.
“Remember to update beneficiaries on life insurance policies after the first spouse(配偶) dies,” says Martin Levine, chief financial officer for 4Thought Financial Group in Syosset.
Get help. This is one time when DIY probably isn’t a good idea. Talk to a financial adviser, preferably one with expertise in estate planning.
Don’t assume that establishing joint tenancy (sharing ownership in personal property, such as a home) or joint ownership over financial accounts is enough to protect your assets.
A.Make no assumptions.
B.But, you’re hardly finished.
C.Decide to do it, and to avoid unexpected consequences.
D. It is difficult to choose a right heir before your death unless they are your closest ones.
E. Ideally, it will make things easier for your heirs(后继人) at a time when they most need it.
F. Finding a reliable agency to deal with your possessions is a wise choice when planning estate.
G. The birth of a child and divorce are other life events that will require updating estate planning documents.
