Read the following passage and answer the questions that follow. It is common and freely available, and is the most popular drink after water. Enjoyed by people of different races, cultures and religions in every continent ansd hemisphere, it is a delicious, healthy and natural drink. It has a wonderful array of different tastes and flavours, yet unlike other exotic drinks, it is inexpensive. I'm sure that by now you must have guessed the drink I am speaking of – it’s tea, of course! The word ‘tea’ originated from the land that invented the drink itself–China. In China, the wordfor tea is ‘cha’ but in the Fujian province it is called ‘tay’. Gradually ‘tay’ changed into ‘tea’ to fitto the English accent of the middle classes.
The tea plant is an evergreen tree which is pruned to a bush-like
state and kept at a height of five feet. After three to five years of
growth, two leaves and a bud from the plant are plucked and
harvested to make tea. A single tea bush will produce tea for at
least half a century!
If the tea leaves are immediately dried and then heated, the tea
leaves remain green. They retain the distinctive flavours and
health benefits green teas are known for. If left to wither, the
leaves are transformed through a process known as oxidation into
black tea.
Since the tea plant grows well in selected climate and geographic
conditions, it cannot be cultivated in all parts of the world. The
world's main tea producing areas are in China, Japan, Taiwan,
India and Sri Lanka. India is one of the world’s largest tea
producers, and because of the varieties and quality available,
Indian tea has been the choice of tea drinkers for over a hundred
years.
