Fan Shenghua, is one of the inheritors(继承人)of West Lake Longjing tea roasting technique(炒茶技艺). He has been making Longjing tea for more than forty years.
Longjing tea leaves are famous for their color, taste and shape.
“You have to touch the leaves with your hands to feel how much water is being removed(去除),” Fan said. “If too much is removed, the leaves will break into pieces; if not enough is removed, the tea will taste bitter(苦的).”
This traditional technique dates back to the Ming and Qing dynasties. It not only makes the tea taste good, but has also become an important part of Chinese tea culture.
These days, however, more people are using machines to do the job. “It’s easier, but the quality is not as good,” Fan said. “Machine-made tea floats longer in water and tastes bitter.”
In March this year, when President Xi Jinping visited Hangzhou, he watched Fan roast tea. Fan changed the strength and movement of his hands as he roasted leaves. Xi later said, “The things made by two palms(手掌) cannot be replaced by modern technology.”
Fan is now teaching some young men. His son, a 27-year-old college graduate, is one of them. “It’s a tradition. We need to pass it down,” he said.
36. According to Paragraph 3, what will happen to tea leaves if they have too much water
A. They will go bad quickly. B. They will break into pieces.
C. They will lose their fresh taste. D. They will have a bitter taste.
37. What does the underlined part “this traditional technique” refer to
A. Picking tea leaves. B. Roasting tea leaves by hand.
C. Drinking tea in a traditional way. D. Growing tea plants on the mountains.
38. What does Fan think of making tea by machine
A. It is easier than by hand. B. It has a long history in China.
C. It makes tea taste better and better. D. It becomes an important part of tea culture.
39. What can we learn from the last paragraph
A. Fan’s son studies tea culture in college. B. Fan will open his own tea houses in China.
C. Fan’s son is learning the tea roasting technique. D. Fan is making this technique popular worldwide.
40. What does the passage mainly want to tell us
A. How to tell good tea apart from bad tea. B. Longjing tea leaves are the best in the world.
C. How tea is packed and sent to many different countries. D. Sometimes only by hand can we make the best of the things.
