An Accidental Invention
Did you know that tea, the most popular drink in the world (after water),
was invented by accident? Many people believes that tea was first drunk
nearly 5,000 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 world’s
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 didn’t 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 the 19th century. This helped to spread
the popularity of 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.
一个偶然的发明你知道茶,世界上最受欢迎的饮料(水),是偶然发明的吗?许多人认为茶是近5000年前第一次喝醉了。这是说,中国的统治者被称为神农发现茶作为饮料第一。有一天,神农氏是在火上煮饮用水。从茶树的叶子掉进了水里,并在那里待了一段时间。它产生的气味使他尝到了褐色的水。这是非常美味的,所以,一个世界上最喜爱的饮料就被发明出来了。几千年后,鲁豫,“茶”的圣人,神农在他的书中提到茶荆。这本书描述了茶树生长和用来泡茶。还讨论了在上等的茶叶生产和使用什么样的水。据认为,茶被带到韩国和日本在第六和第七世纪。在英国,茶不到1660的出现,但在不到100年,它已经成为国饮。从中国到西方国家的茶叶贸易发生在第十九世纪。这有助于传播茶树的普及到世界更多的地方。尽管现在许多人知道关于茶文化,中国无疑是那些最了解茶叶的性质。
