Mac never thought that the little cup would cause such a big problem. Ben became dependent on this cup because ever since he received the gift he would only drink water from the exact type of little blue cup. Over 12 years, Ben refused to drink water without the cup. Mac was worried about this because their current (目前的) cup could break soon and he needed to find a replacement for his son to drink with. The problem was that the cup was no longer being produced.Mac tried to take Ben to a doctor to solve the cup problem, but it was of no use. So Mac decided to seek help from the public on Twitter. He got a lot of responses and the enthusiasm people from all over the world showed gave him confidence and hope. Many strangers found their identical cup and offered to send them to Ben. Though Mac received a lot of help, he still was concerned. All the cups he received would eventually break. As time passed, it would be even harder to find the same cups.The situation took a surprising turn when the baby products company Tommee Tippee UK got in touch with Mac. They sent a team to China, and they found the same exact mould (模具) for the cup in the factory that first made it. The company and the Chinese factory decided to make as many as 500 cups for Ben, and Mac was thrilled about all this.24．What would happen to Ben without the cup?A．He would feel sad. B．He would break other cups.C．He would refuse to drink water. D．He would suffer from autism.25．Where did Mac decide to seek help?A．From a social network.

Of different size.CThe birth of the black tea and the first to reach the Western world from Fujian originated by accident. A Chinese army happened to stop by a tea farm in the late Ming Dynasty (1368—1644) and the soldiers slept on raw tea leaves which were intended for green tea making. Helpless and eager to avoid further loss, the anxious tea producer roasted the withered (枯萎的) tea leaves immediately afterwards, with pine branches, ending up with a deep colored tea, which produced bright red soup, a smoky taste and sweet flavor. To the tea farmer's surprise, the taste and flavor became a hit in the market, and the whole area started to make the kind of tea to satisfy market demand.Around the end of the 16th century, Dutch business people took tea to Europe. Catherine of Braganza, when she married British King Charles Ⅱin 1662, took the tea drinking habit from Portugal to the British court.It was hard to say if people in the United Kingdom had the choice of drinking green tea, because it is said that after long sea transportation, green tea from China naturally fermented (发酵) into black tea. At the time British people still didn't know that black tea and green tea are made from the same leaves, so Scottish botanist Robert Fortune (1812—1880) met with disbelief when he pointed out that only a different processing method made black tea and green tea different.Fortune was sent by the East India Company to steal tea from China. He took more than 20,000 tea plants and seedlings to India in 1851. Although most of the tea plants he introduced to India are said to have died, trained Chinese tea workers he took there are believed to have equipped the country with the necessary technology and knowledge for tea making.27．The tea farmer invented red tea ________.A．to get a better taste B．to please the soldiersC．to avoid losing more money D．to satisfy market demand28．According to the text, British people ________.A．preferred green tea to black tea in the 17th centuryB．made green tea transported from China into black teaC．was the first in Europe to have the habit of drinking teaD．thought black tea and green tea were made from different leaves29．What did Fortune do according to the text?A．He trained workers to make tea.B．He brought tea plants and seedlings to Britain.C．He did something illegal for the East India Company.D．He learned knowledge and skills to make different kinds of tea.30．What is the text mainly about?A．The origin of black tea.B．The technology for tea making.C．The tradition of drinking tea in Britain.D．The difference between black tea and green tea.第二节（共5小题，每小题2分，满分10分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。
