Luyu was called Tea Saint for compiling Tea Classics.（)

e answer is no.Actually, it is the processing of tea that finally decides the tea types.For example, black tea requires 100% oxidation and green tea requires almost no oxidation.So tea processing is quite an important factor in the production of tea.Anyway, the normal processing of tea includes the following four basic steps:

1.New leaves are spread in order to reduce water content until they are pliable enough to be rolled.This process is called withering.

2.The second step is rolling the withered leaves.Oils and extra moisture are released.This process can be done with machinery or by hand.

3.The third step is called oxidation or fermentation.In this process the leaves turn from green to bright copper in colour.This step decides what type of tea we want.

4.The last step is drying the leaves to stop the oxidation process.The leaves should be dried thoroughly without burning.

Decide each statement is T (true) or F (false) based on Passage B.

6.The processing of tea decides the tea types.

7.Green tea requires a little oxidation.

8.Withering makes the tea leaves release oils and water.

9.Rolling the withered leaves can be done only with machinery.

10.Burning the leaves is the last step of tea processing.

ities with the highest, hest concentrations of centenarians in the world.

The people in the five regions in Europe, Latin America,Asia and the US that live to be 100 have a lot going for them. Genes probably play a small role, but these folks also have strong social ties ,tightly-knit families and lots of opportunities to exercise.

As we were examining the dietary secrets of the Blue Zones, as described in author Dan Buettner" s latest book, The Blue Zones Solution, we were struck by how essential tea drinking is in these regions. In fact, Buettner&39; s Blue Zones Beverage Rule--a kind of guideline summarized from his 15 or so years of studying these places--is:" Drink coffee for breakfast, tea in the afternoon, wine at 5 p. tm"

Science has plenty to say about the healthful virtues of green tea. Researchers are most enthusi- astic almt the components in green tea, as well as foods like cocoa. Why might they help so many Okina~vans in Japan break 1007 Some components in green tea can lower the risk of stroke,heart disease attd several cancers. One review study also found that drinking green tea can slightly improve metabolism (新陈代谢).

If you find yourself on the island of Ikaria, the Greek Blue Zone in the middle of the Aegean, you won&39;t be offered any tea made with tea leaves. Instead, Ikarians typically make their daily cup of tea with just one fresh herb that they have picked themselves that day--either rosemary, wild sage,oregano,nmrjotmn,mint or dandelion,all plants that may have anti-inflammatory (消炎的) properties, which may help lower blood pressure. This could explain Ikaria&39; s very low dementia (痴呆) rate,since high blood pressure is a risk factor for the disease.

Short Answers

1 Auctions are public sales of goods conducted by an officially approved auctioneer. He

asks the crowd assembled in the auction-room to make offers, or "bids", for the various

items on sale. He encourages buyers to b 记 higher figures, and finally names the highest

bidder as the buyer of the good. Practically all goods whose (lualities vary are sold by

auction. Among these are coffee, skins, wool, tea, furs, species, fruit and vegetables and

wines. Auction sales are also useful for land and property, antique furniture, pictures, rare

kooks, old china and works of art

2 An auction is usually advertised beforehand with full particulars of the articles to be

sold; and where and when they can be viewed by prospective buyers. TI the advertisement

cannot give full details, catalogues are printed, and each group of goods to be sold together,

called a "lot", is usually given a number. The auctioneer need not begin with Lot 1 and

continue in numerical order; he may wait until he registers the fact that certain dealers are in

the rocm and then produces the lots they are likely to be interested in. The auctioneer's

services are paid for in the form. of a percentage of the price the goods

are sold for. The

auctioneer therefore has a direct interest in pushing up the bidding as high as possible

3 The auctioneer must know fairly accurately the current market values of the goods

he is selling, and he should be acquainted with regular buyers of such goods. Fe will not

waste time by starting the bidding too low. He will also play on the rival among his buyers

and succeed in getting a high price by encouraging two business competitors to bid against

each other. It is largely in his advice that a seller will fix a "reserved" price, that is, a price

below which the goods cannot be sold. Even the best auctioneers, however, find it difficult

to stop a 'knock-out", whereby dealers illegally arranged themselves as the only bidder, in

the hope of buying goods at extremely low prices. If such a "knock-out" comes off, the real

auction sale takes place privately afterwards among the dealers
