1.B

【句意】在去日本出差之前，亨利先生已把公司的日常管理移交给了自己的儿子。

【解析】词组辨析。turn up“（意外地或终于）出现；发现；调高（音量或热度）”；turn over“翻转；移交给”；turn to“转向；变成；求助于”；turn into“变成”。根据句中的时间状语“Before he went to Japan on a business trip”以及空白处后面所跟的宾语“the day-to-day management of his company”可知“移交给”符合语境，故B项正确。

2.A

【句意】桌子上有一些人造花。

【解析】形容词词义辨析。artificial“人造的；非自然的；虚假的”；unnatural“不自然的；反常的”；false“错误的；不真诚的”；unreal“不真实的； 虚幻的”。由句中关键词“flowers花”的对应并结合四个选项知“人造的”符合语境，故A项正确。
