VI. (2024·南通如皋实验中学质检)阅读理解
Weddings(婚礼) create a lot of leftover flowers. To Eleanor Love, that means more chances to collect after - wedding bouquets(花束) and give them to her lonely hospital patients, many of whom don't often get visitors, let alone expensive flowers.
The flowers are still in good shape, and the patients are overjoyed to have them.
“I broke down and cried,” recalled patient Connie Melzer, who was recovering(康复) from a heart problem at Virginia Commonwealth University(VCU) Medical Centre in Richmond when Love walked into her room with a bouquet in early 2020.
“When you're in hospital for six to eight weeks, it really means a lot,” said Melzer.
Love worked at the VCU Hospital as a medical student. She wanted to help ease the suffering of patients as well as learning to treat them as a student doctor.
“One of the challenges of being a medical student is that it can be very difficult to help,” said Love. “You are there as a learner, but you don't have the same knowledge as doctors. How can I at this stage help patients?”
So in 2019, she started The Simple Sunflower Project in Richmond, and so far has delivered(递送) more than 760 bouquets to patients. She brought her schoolmates into her project. People beyond(在……之外) the VCU community who heard about the project also joined. Now Love has more than 200 volunteers on the email list.
For each wedding, Love would organize a team of eight volunteers to help pick up the flowers when the party was over and then delivered them to patients. “It's so satisfying to see the patients who receive our bouquets and it reminds me why we do what we do,” she said.
