Many people believe that tea was first drunk nearly 5000 years ago. It is said that a Chinese ruler called Shen Nong was the first to discover tea as a drink. One day Shen Nong was boiling drinking water over an open fire. Some leaves from a tea plant fell into the water and remained there for some time. It produced a nice smell so he tasted the brown water. It was quite delicious, and so, one of the worlds favorite drinks was invented.A few thousand years later, Lu Yu,” the saint of tea” mentioned Shen Nong in his book Cha Jing. The book describes how tea plants were grown and used to make tea. It also discusses where the finest tea leaves were produced and what kinds of water were used.It is believed that tea was brought to Korea and Japan during the 6th and 7th centuries. In England, tea didnt appear until around 1660, but in less than 100 years, it had become the national drink. The tea trade from China to Western countries took place in 19th century. This helped to spread the popularity of tea and the tea plant to more places around the world. Even though many people now know about tea culture, the Chinese are without doubt the ones who best understand the nature of tea.crispy /krispi/ adj. 脆的；酥脆的 p.45 sour /sau(r)/ adj. 酸的；有酸味的 p.45 by mistake 错误地；无意中 p.45customer /kstm(r)/ n. 顾客；客户p.45Canadian /kneidin/ adj. 加拿大的；加拿大人的 n. 加拿大人p.46divide /divaid/ v. 分开；分散p.46divide . into 把分开 p.46 purpose /p3:(r)ps/ n. 目的；目标 p.46 basket /ba:skit/ n. 篮；筐p.46the Olympics /limpiks/ 奥林匹克运动会p.46look up to 钦佩；仰慕p.46hero /hirU/, /hiruz/ n. 英雄；男主角p.46Berlin /b3:lin/ 柏林（德国城市）p.46 NBA (National Basketball Association) 国家篮球协会 （美国职业篮球联赛） CBA (China Basketball Association)中国篮球协会（中国职业篮球联赛）Jamie /deimi/ Ellsworth /elzw3:(r) /杰米 埃尔斯沃恩p.42 Julie /du:li/ Thompson /tmpsn/朱莉 汤普森p.42Whitcomb /witkm/ Judson /d dsn/惠特科姆 贾德森p.42 Thomas /tms/ Watson /wtsn/托马斯 沃森p.44George /d:(r) d/ Crum /krm/乔治 克拉姆p.45James /deimz/ Naismith /naismi/詹姆斯 奈史密斯p.462b.
