Choose the best answerWhen we are talking about afternoon tea, what would you think of? A cup of tea, a piece of cake and a good mood, what a good enjoyment! But do you know how comes the afternoon tea?We should thank for a lady, who had created the custom of afternoon tea in 1840. She was Anna. At that time, people of upper class usually had supper at around 8 oclock in the evening. But Anna began to feel hungry at round 4 in the afternoon. This had left her a good long time of 4 hours. Therefore, she told the servant to bring a tray of bread, butter and cakes to her room during the afternoon. It became a habit of hers. Soon, she invited her friends to join her.After Anna started enjoying the afternoon tea, women of the rich did the same in their homes and it later became a fashionable social event, giving a chance for people to meet new friends and get news or new stories.The traditional afternoon tea usually contains a teapot of tea, several teacups and cakes. English tea is mainly India, which was originally transported by the East India Company.Today, afternoon tea has been simplified because of the change of lifestyle. People use tea bags instead of tea leaves. Cakes are no longer as various as those long time ago. They usually are some pieces of biscuits or cakes.But if you want to experience a real English afternoon tea, I would advise you to go to Devonshire, where produces good cream and famous cream tea.74.

Never too young to learn Niu Niu was born into a musical family in Xiamen. His father Zhang was a piano teacher. Niu Niu grew up listening to his fathers student playing the piano. At just three years old, Niu Niu asked his father to teach him to play, too. I gave Niu Niu some sheet music and helped him find the eight notes when he first played the piano. To my surprise, he played nearly 80 percent correct, said the father. He used to think that 3 years old is too young an age to learn piano, but Niu Niu changed his mind. He continued to allow Niu Niu to watch his teaching of other students and gave him more sheet music to play.Playing for funZhang started teaching Niu Niu standard piano lessons when he was four. Unlike many other piano teachers, Zhang didnt insist that Niu Niu play strictly with the correct finger positioning. He said that the strict finger positioning would rob some kids of fun of playing. So Niu Niu could play in his own way. He could play the tone successfully. But Niu Niu was required to play the music without looking at the sheet music. Now he can memorize about 80 pages.Rising to fame In 2003, at the age of 6, Niu Niu successfully held a sole concert in his hometown Xiamen. At the age of 8, he gave a performance at the International Piano Festival in France. At the age of 10, Niu Niu played in London and his performance was praised by Prince Charles. Last year, this young pianist published his first album “Niu Niu Plays Mozart” and over 10,000 copies have been sold in the world. We are very glad to see a young Chinese pianist rising in the music world.1 How old was Niu Niu when he performed a concert at the National Grand Theater? He was eleven years old. 2 Niu Nius father Zhang wasnt a piano teacher, was he? Yes,he was. 3 What did Niu Nius father feel when Niu Niu played nearly 80 percent of the sheet music correct? He felt surprised. 4 Should Niu Niu play the piano with the correct finger positioning or in his own way? In his own way. 5 In which year was Niu Nius performance praised by Prince Charles? In 2007. 6 What do you think of Zhangs way of teaching his son Niu Niu? Why? I think it is because （我自己写的：I think it is great because he allowed his son to play the piano in his own way.）
