    Cable ties(扎带), bottle caps, and colorful pieces of plastic-these would be rubbish to most of us. But 34-year-old Flora Blathwayt saw them  treasure and art. She even set up a company selling greeting cards  (make) of them this year.

    Flora likes to make something by hand, and she always  (care) about environmental protection. On a clean-up trip to London's river the Thames, she was shocked  (see) the rubbish in the river. After that, she decided to do something with it. Then she started to use the rubbish to make "green" greeting cards.

    She first made a card for her  (sister) wedding. On the card, it was a car with lots of colorful pieces of plastic. Following the success of the card, she then  (begin) to make some for other family members and friends. During the COVID-19 pandemic, she lost her job. Then she turned  (she) hobby into a full-time business. A card sells for $6, and each one has  (word), showing where the plastic rubbish is from.

    Flora hopes her cards can help people know about plastic pollution in a fun way. In fact, even the simplest  (day) activities can have a big influence on the environment. She also hopes her small business is doing its bit—even  it's just reminding people of the problems we still face.
