Afternoon tea
Afternoon TeaBritain has a colorful traditional culture. Referring to British traditional culture, we may naturally think of British afternoon tea culture. Britain is a tea-loving country, and Britain has a history of 300 years about drinking tea. The British have the habit of drinking tea. When about four in the afternoon, preparing a cup of tea, accompanied by a few delicate dessert, British enjoy a while of escaping mood .The origin of the afternoon tea. In the 17th century, when the Portuguese princess Catherine was married, the Chinese tea was introduced to UK. Since then tea is prevalent in the court. In the 19th century, the British Duchess Annabel Dove, asked servants to prepare bread, butter and tea, nice chat, and she shared the relaxing afternoons. She also invited his friends to share the relaxing afternoons together. From then on, this conduct suddenly became a fashion, forming a British tea culture.The distinction between the afternoon tea and the high tea. Afternoon tea is also called "low tea" (because it was usually taken in the late afternoon) as it is served at a low table. Since this wasn't a meal, but rather like a late afternoon snack meant to stave off hunger, finger foods were the common fare. Tiny, dainty sandwiches, scones and pastries were served with afternoon tea. Finger foods afforded one the opportunity to take a petite bite and easily maintain a conversation. This is most important, as one is not merely taking tea to gain nourishment or satisfy hunger, but to take time to relax, converse and enjoy the company of dear friends. In England, the traditional time for tea was four o'clock or five o'clock in the afternoon and no one stayed after seven o'clock. High tea, a term often confused with afternoon tea, usually takes the place of supper. During the Industrial Revolution, working class families would return home tired and exhausted. The table would be set with dinner foods like meat, bread, butter, potatoes, cheese and of course tea. It was termed "high tea" because it was eaten at a high dining table rather than a low tea table.Low tea was initially used at home, an elegant tea set used to enjoy tea, then gradually evolved into a social tea in order to entertain friends, and then developed various manners, but now the form of it is simplified a lot. Although tea has now beensimplified, the correct way to brew tea , the elegant furnishings to drink tea, and the sumptuous refreshments are considered the tradition of tea handed down.The manners of British afternoon tea. In Britain which is famous for its strict etiquette requirements, afternoon tea gradually develops a wide variety of tea etiquette requirements and habits, and become one of the daily essential aspects in the upper class in UK. The most orthodox tea drinking time was four o'clock in the afternoon. In the Victorian era, men were dressed in the tuxedos, the ladies were in robes. Now at an annual formal afternoon tea in Buckingham Palace, the male guests are still dressed in tuxedos, wear dunce caps and hold an umbrellas; and women wear white dresses, and be sure to wear hats. Usually to show respect for the guests the masters in formal clothing serve the guests personally, and does not ask the maids for help unless they have no choice. In general, the special afternoon tea is Keemun black tea, Darjeeling and Earl Grey, Ceylon tea. If you drink milk tea, you should add milk before you add tea. Enjoy refreshments from the bottom up: the orthodox British afternoon tea snack is loaded with three layers dessert plate, the first layer is put with the sandwich, the second layer traditional British dessert Scone, then the third layer cake and fruit tarts; and then eat back from the bottom again. Early the source of tea almost relied on China's input, The British had a unique love and respect for tea, so they inevitably showed a cautious attitude during the drinking process and subsequently formed the habit of locking the tea cabinet. Appreciate the delicate tea set. Victorian afternoon tea is a comprehensive art, simple but not shabby, gorgeous but not vulgar... Although the time of drinking and dessert (refer to pure British dessert) are the most important part of the orthodox British afternoon tea, but lacking good tea, porcelain, music, and even a good mood, your drinking tea becomes fly in the ointment. Cautious attitude: Traditional Afternoon Tea is second only to informal social dinner, and is very particular about posture posture. You should pick up the cup gently (you must use the thumb and forefinger to hold the cup handle previously, now you can put your finger in the cup ring), send the cup to your mouth. Tea should be drunk slowly with a small mouth. Snacks should be savored. You should whisper in a low voice, and behave with dignified manners. When others speak, you should look atthem horizontally with your eyes gently, which means that you are very concerned about it; when your cell phone rings, and if somebody is just talking, you shouldn't rudely interrupt him and should say sorry to him in the conversation gaps and so on.Trilogy of enjoying afternoon tea.First-step: enjoy a delicious dessert. Scend-step: appreciate the delicate tea set. Third-step:taste the tea. Of course, no matter how sumptuous desserts, and regardless of how delicate tea set, afternoon tea is inseparable from a "tea", which shows that "tea" is the absolute protagonist. The dedicated afternoon tea is divided into Darjeeling, Earl Grey tea, Ceylon tea, and other types. People usually direct brew tea, then use tea strainers to filter tea leaves so that they can get the drinking tea. When the hot water is poured down, through the transparent glass teapot, you can see the tea tip blooming in the water slowly. The most beautiful tea is rose tea, looking at the tiny rose petals swaying and flying upward in the water, your emotions are also flying up. The combination of black tea with milk is like an elegant aristocracy encounter a celebrity gentleman. Whether a small or a large mouth sip,in the cold winter, a cup of hot tea is undoubtedly a recipe for warm, smoothly sliding from the tongue to the stomach in a moment, a faint sweet still leaving in the mouth after a long time, and leaving people aftertaste a lot. The afternoon dazzling sunshine irradiate your slightly-closed eyelids, making you feel a while of trance, as if the fugue in Thames with the microwave, unwilling to wake up.The effectiveness of afternoon tea. Afternoon tea can replenish energy promptly. Facing the high efficient and fast-paced modern society, office workers eat too little or too hasty in lunch. A nutritionally balanced afternoon tea can not only help people get rid of fatigue, but also help restore strength, and can also help people maintain energy until dusk, and then make dinner relatively light, which contribute to developing a perfect diet. In addition, experiments show that tea can also enhance memory and resilience. People who have the habit of drinking afternoon tea get a 15% to 20% higher score than the average score of others in the memory and resilience. What's more, osteoporosis can be avoided by drinking tea often. In afternoon tea, Tea's effect on human health s can not be ignored. Black tea has a mild character and a mellow flavor. Above all, it help build strong bones. Tea is rich in flavonoids, and can reducethe risk of osteoporosis in women.Secondly, drinking tea can prevent influenza, myocardial infarction, stroke and skin diseases. The study found that regular consumption of black tea to gargle or directly drinking it plays an important role in the prevention of influenza.Black tea is rich in trace elements potassium, after brewing, 70% of potassium dissolved in tea, which can enhance cardiac blood circulation, and can reduce the consumption of calcium in the body. For those people who drink five cups of black tea every day, the incidence of risking stroke is 69% lower than those who do not drink tea. Besides, black tea' effects is better than green tea's in the prevention of skin cancer because it has theaflavins.The traditional afternoon tea usually contains a teapot of tea several teacups and pastries. There are different types of pastries: a selection of dainty sandwiches, scones served with clotted cream and preserves, teacakes etc. English tea is mainly from India or Ceylon, 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 infusing tea leaves. Pastries are no longer as various and sophisticated as that of 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 good clotted cream and famous cream tea are produced. The tea consists of cups of hot and sweet tea served in china teacups and scones, strawberry jam as well as the fine clotted cream_the vital ingredient of cream tea. You may indulge yourself for a whole afternoon to enjoy the best tradition.As William Gladstone said: “If you are cold, tea will warm you. If you are too heated, it will cool you. If you are depressed, it will cheer you. If you are exhausted, it will calm you.”Title: Afternoon Tea学院：材料与冶金学院班级：英美概况1班姓名：王长乐学号：1300633。

传统英式午茶的由来
傳 統 英 式 午 茶 的 由 來History of English Afternoon Tea在英國維多利亞時代(西元1819-1901年)，貝德芙公爵夫人安娜瑪麗亞(Anna Maria)女士，每到下午時刻就意興闌珊、百般無聊，心想此時距離穿著正式、禮節繁複的晚餐Party還有段時間，可是又感覺肚子有點餓；於是就要女僕在她的起居室準備幾片烤麵包、奶油以及茶，吃完後她覺得這樣的下午茶實在是相當完美的點心。
後來，安娜女士就開始邀請知心好友們在她的起居室加入她的下午茶會，伴隨著茶與精緻的點心,同享輕鬆愜意的午後時光，沒想到一時之間，在當時貴族社交圈內蔚為風尚，名媛仕女趨之若鶩；直到今天，已儼然形成一種優雅自在的下午茶文化，也成為正統的『英國紅茶文化』，這也是《維多利亞下午茶》的由來。
According to legend, one of queen victoria’s (1819-1901) ladies-in-waiting, Anna Maria Stanhope (1783-1857), known as the duchess of bedford, is credited as the creator of afternoon teatime. Because the noon meal had become lighter, the duchess suffered from “A Sinking Feeling” at around four o’clock in the afternoon. At first, the duchess had her servants provide her a pot of tea and some breadstuffs. Adopting the european tea service format, she invited friends to join her for an afternoon meal at five o’clock in her rooms at belvoir castle. The menu centred around small cakes, bread and butter sandwiches, assorted sweets, and, of course, tea. This summer practice proved so popular that the duchess continued it when she returned to London, sending cards to her friends asking them to join her for “Tea and a walk in the fields.”The practice of inviting friends to come for tea in the afternoon was quickly picked up by other social hostesses.English Afternoon Tea英 式 下 午 茶迷你雙餡馬卡龍Mini Macaron with Two Flavour 英式葡萄司康British Raisin Scone甜 點 Sweets。

参考翻译Although the tradition of drinking tea dates back to more than 3,000 B.C. in China, it was not until the mid 17th century in the UK that appeared the concept of "afternoon tea". The dinner time then was popularly late at 8 pm, so a Duchess developed a habit of inviting Mends to enjoy some cakes at 4 pm in the afternoon. Quickly, afternoon tea became a fashionable social event. With the cultural exchanges between the east and the west deepening, this British tradition was gradually in-traduced into China. Now, afternoon tea is increasingly popular in China, especially in the area ol Guangdong and Fijian provinces.表达难点1.仔细分析发现，第1句的.前后分句语义上表转折。

Tea in England。
英国的茶文化。
Tea has been a popular beverage in England since the17th century, when it was introduced by Catherine of Braganza, the queen consort of King Charles II. However, it was not until the 19th century that tea became a staple of British culture, thanks to the development of tea plantations in India and the reduction of its price. This led to the creation of the tradition of afternoon tea, which is still popular today.自17世纪以来，茶在英国一直是一种受欢迎的饮料，当时由查尔斯二世国王的皇后卡瑟琳·布拉干萨引入。
英国饮食文化之下午茶的由来
英国饮食文化之下午茶的由来现在越来越多的国人也开始喝起了下午茶，下午茶中最富盛名的还属英式下午茶，今天店铺在这里为大家介绍英国的饮食文化之下午茶的由来，欢迎大家阅读！英国饮食文化：下午茶的由来下午茶是英国传统的精华所在，但它并没有特别悠久的历史。
在中国，饮茶的历史可以追溯到公元前3000年，而在英国，喝茶的风俗直到17世纪60年代英王查尔斯二世时期才开始兴盛起来。
而下午茶的概念要到19世纪中叶才出现。
下午茶是由第七任贝德福公爵夫人安娜在1840年创造出来的。
公爵夫人在下午四点钟左右常常会感到饥饿，而根据当时的风尚，晚餐要在八点钟才会开始，于是午餐和晚餐中间就有很长的一段时间。
公爵夫人就命人把茶，黄油面包和蛋糕在下午晚些时候送到她的房间里去吃。
这以后就成了她的习惯了，而且她开始邀请好友一起来饮茶吃点心。
自此之后，茶歇就成了一种社会潮流。
在19世纪80年代，通常，下午茶会安排在起居室，时间大约是在下午四点到五点，而上层社会的女士们则会穿着长裙，戴手套和帽子来品用下午茶。
传统的下午茶包括精选的三明治，英式奶油松饼，还有蛋糕和其他甜点。
选用印度或锡兰(现斯里兰卡)出产的茶叶放入银质茶壶内泡茶，再将茶水倒在精致的中国骨瓷茶杯中饮用。
Afternoon tea, that most quintessential of English customs is, perhaps surprisingly, a relatively new tradition. Whilst the custom of drinking tea dates back to the third millennium BC in China and was popularised in England during the 1660s by King Charles II, it was not until the mid 19th century that the concept of ‘afternoon tea’ first appeared.Afternoon tea was introduced in England by Anna, the seventh Duchess of Bedford, in the year 1840. The Duchess wouldbecome hungry around four o'clock in the afternoon. The evening meal in her household was served fashionably late at eight o'clock, thus leaving a long period of time between lunch and dinner. The Duchess asked that a tray of tea, bread and butter and cake be brought to her room during the late afternoon. This became a habit of hers and she began inviting friends to join her.This pause for tea became a fashionable social event. During the 1880's upper-class and society women would change into long gowns, gloves and hats for their afternoon tea which was usually served in the drawing room between four and five o'clock.Traditional afternoon tea consists of a selection of dainty sandwiches, scones served withclotted cream. Cakes and pastries are also served. Tea grown in India or Ceylon is poured from silver tea pots into delicate bone china cups.关于下午茶的英文阅读：英式下午茶的前世今生The warm weather outside may look perfect for outdoor exercise. But for those who are not that sporty, what could be nicer than having a relaxing afternoon tea with a few good friends and taking a break from studying?温暖的天气最适合进行户外活动了。

英国下午茶British AfternoonTea课件
—一壶浓茶
对于苏格兰的high tea，也许用“吃”来形容更为贴切。当你卸下一天的疲惫， 饥肠辘辘地和家人坐在餐桌旁，还有什么能够比一份温暖和丰盛的佳肴更加令 人治愈呢？High tea，没有精致华丽的外表，但是让人们能更加关注食物本 身，回归家庭的惬意和闲适，也许这才是它真正的高明之处吧。 提到英式下午茶（British Afternoon Tea）,相信十个人中有九个人都能说出 点门道，就算没体验过，肯定也在电视剧电影里见过。但是苏格兰的High Tea估计对于很多人来说就很陌生了，要不要跟随作者一起来云喝/吃茶呢？ 由于许多人错误地认为两者没有区别，afternoon tea和high tea 经常被混 淆或者互换使用。其实这两种茶的传统都沉浸在英国的历史中，也许差异细微， 但是它们的起源还是不同的。
在家里如何复刻苏格兰high tea
尽管现在high tea在很多餐厅都看不到了，但是high tea传达的理念还是深入人心的，那就是：拒绝严 格的规则，花哨的礼仪或者繁复的食谱，每个苏格兰家庭可能都会有属于自己的菜谱。它只是一顿和家人 一起享受得轻松而美味的佳肴。那么如果想在家复刻苏格兰high tea，推荐哪些材料呢？ —主菜，比如牛排派，奶酪通心粉或者牛排 —配菜，比如猪肉派，冷盘，烤豆子，熟鸡蛋和沙拉 —切片面包和黄油 —烘培食品，比如热松饼，司康饼 —典型的苏格兰蛋糕，比如邓迪蛋 —苏格兰黄油饼干 —不同口味的果酱
其实在苏格兰，tea曾经就是被用来指代工人们的晚餐，直到后来慢慢演变，才被 supper这个词取代。
High Tea 和 Afternoon Tea的区别
和high tea不同，afternoon tea 有着更加“高贵”的出身。相传19 世纪初，由 于晚餐一般在晚上八点才供应，贝德福德公爵夫人安娜 (Anna)认为需要做些什么来 填补下午这段饥肠辘辘的时间。于是她会在自己的房间里准备一些茶水和点心，邀 请朋友来参加，久而久之就发展成了后来的下午茶。
“奶茶”的英文别说“milktea”，这个表达更准确！
“奶茶”的英文别说“milktea”，这个表达更准确！奶茶，年轻人的续命水。
天气变冷，来一杯取暖；工作困了，来一杯提神；开心了，买一杯奖励自己；受委屈了，买一杯安慰自己，反正总是有说不完的理由喝一杯奶茶。
今天，我们就来说说“奶茶”的英文表达：很多人的第一反应肯定是“milk tea”，这个说法没有什么错误，但它更多指的是英式奶茶。
而受年轻人欢迎的“珍珠奶茶”，起源于20世纪80年代台南和台中的茶饮料，通常由茶、牛奶和糖（可选）组成。
其有个专门的表达：Bubble （milk）TeaBubble有“气泡”的意思，所以Bubble Tea从字面上看就是“泡泡茶”，这跟它的中文名字来源有关。
“珍珠奶茶”这个名字最初来自于奶茶摇动时形成的气泡，而不是饮料中所加的珍珠粉圆。
“珍珠奶茶”还有很多别称：Boba 波霸Pearl (milk) tea 珍珠奶茶Boba (milk) tea 波霸奶茶Tapioca（木薯粉） tea [ˌtæpiˈəʊkə]什么是low tea？提到下午茶，可能很多人都知道英文是“afternoon tea”。
afternoon tea: a small meal eaten in the late afternoon, usually including cake and a cup of tea下午茶：（通常包括蛋糕和茶的）午后茶点但是今天普特君主要想跟大家说的是“low tea”。
看到这个“low tea”你的第一反应是什么？低级茶？低茶？其实，这个“low tea”是“afternoon tea”的另一种说法，我们也可以直接翻译成“下午茶”。
A selection of tea cakes sandwiches and scones is a true delight to any brit and many visitors to the rainy isle.精选的茶点、蛋糕、三明治和烤饼是所有英国人和许多来这个多雨小岛的游客的真正乐趣。
English afternoon tea
English afternoon tea社工Q0941 向阳Afternoon tea is a light meal typically eaten between 3pm and 5pm, Here I would like to introduce the most famous afternoon tea originated in England.Afternoon tea (because it was usually taken in the late afternoon) is also called "low tea" as it is served at a low table. Since this wasn't a meal, but rather like a late afternoon snack meant to stave off hunger, finger foods were the common fare. Tiny, dainty sandwiches, scones and pastries were served with afternoon tea. Finger foods afforded one the opportunity to take a petite bite and easily maintain a conversation. This is most important, as one is not taking tea to gain nourishment or satisfy hunger, but to take time to relax, converse and enjoy the company of dear friends. In England, the traditional time for tea was four o'clock or five o'clock in the afternoon and no one stayed after seven o'clock.With the progress of era, more and more British women gradually have their own career, part of which treat the afternoon tea as an obsolete custom. Therefore, not all of Britons would take it between 3o’clock and 4o’clock. Nowadays, a formal afternoon tea is usually taken as a treat in a hotel, café or tea shop. In everyday life, many Britons take a much simpler refreshment consisting of tea and biscuits at teatime.It’s said that a typical and formal English afternoon tea has trilogy. First, Britons enjoy the delicious dessert, Most of time which is served in a three-layer- vat. Most of the time , the first layer serves all kinds of salty sandwiches like a savor of cheese or ham while Scone, an English traditional dessert would be provided in the second layer vat. There isn’t something settled to be placed on the third vat, cakes and fruit tower are usually seen on this layer. The desserts are tasted by the order of from the light to the heavy and the salty to the sweet. Britons taste a little salty sandwiches firstly, the taste is meant to be slowly, and then sip a sweet smell of tea. Next is spread jam or butter on an English muffin, so a little sweetness in the mouth slowly disseminated, and finally cakes and fruit tower lead you to the climax .Second, Britons enjoy the fantasy tea set. Afternoon tea of Victoria era is a comprehensive art, simple but not shabby. Although the desert of pure English style is the most important part of the formal English afternoon tea , it will becomes not perfect without good tea, porcelain, music or even a good mood. At last, Britons would enjoy the tasting of the good tea. The special tea of English afternoon tea is darjeeling tea and Earl Grey which are produced in India of British colony or ceylon black tea. In addition, the UK has the habit of drinking milk tea at teatime. Tea also comes with sliced lemon and milk cans.Now we come to the perennial problem that face all dedicated tea drinkers-the question of the right moment to add milk to the tea.Modern “milk-in-first” tea drinkers argue that their preferred ritual gives a better mixing of the two li quids, while the “second-milk-in” drinkers believe that by pouring the milk into the tea, one has a better chance of getting the proportions correct forstrength and colour. The final choice, however, in this critical matter, must be that of each individual tea drinker!Here is a point we may need to notice, if we are invited to take afternoon tea one day. When we feel full at teatime, we can put the teaspoon into the cup so as to say you don’t need more. Otherwise, your stomach wo n’t feel very well or the host' hearts may ache for her precious tea.The function of drinking afternoon tea has been proved in recent reseaches. It has the advantages of improving memory, refueling energy, avoiding the osteoporosis and so on. However, Tea not only works for health from inside the body , but also is an important part of British culture after it has been so widely drunk by all classes in all areas of Britain .Britons who grew up in families where afternoon tea was regularly served with all the traditional ritual and ceremony will readily understand the charm and appeal of this very British social occasion. The acts of brewing and serving tea link Britons to manners of the tea party and to the role that tea has played in their social life. For hundreds of years, people have gazed into the pattern of wet tea leaves in the bottom of their cup in order to try and fathom the furture. The connections and the fascination of tea add to the charm of this timeless beverage.While, actually all tea of Victoria era depended on the input of China. What’ the reason that we don’t have afternoon tea or morning tea, but milk tea of low quality in all streets instead. I think about these reasons. Frist ,England went through the glory revolution so that a lot of custom have been reserved well. Second, England has the social custom that lower class learn and modify the higher class—the famous British Nobles. Third, British Empire had a number of wealth and steady social environment that time, that is rest days and bonuses.。
你还知道哪些关于下午茶的知识英语作文
你还知道哪些关于下午茶的知识英语作文Afternoon tea, also known as high tea, is aquintessential British tradition that originated in the 19th century. It has since become a popular social activity around the world. Here are some key facts and information about afternoon tea:1. History:Afternoon tea was introduced in England by Anna, the Duchess of Bedford, in the early 1840s. During that time, it was common for people to have only two main meals a day, breakfast and dinner. The Duchess began to experience a "sinking feeling" in the afternoons and started having a pot of tea and a light snack to tide her over. She eventually invited friends to join her, and the tradition of afternoon tea was born.2. Afternoon Tea vs. High Tea:Although the terms are often used interchangeably, afternoon tea and high tea actually refer to different meals. Afternoon tea is a light meal consisting of tea, finger sandwiches, scones with clotted cream and jam, and an assortment of pastries and cakes. It is typically served between 3 pm and 5 pm. High tea, on the other hand, is a more substantial and formal meal served later in the day, usually around 5 pm or 6 pm. It includes tea, along with hot dishes like meat, fish, and vegetables, as well as bread and butter.3. Traditional Afternoon Tea Etiquette:When partaking in afternoon tea, there are certain etiquette guidelines to follow. These include holding the teacup by the handle, stirring tea gently (without clinking the spoon against the cup), and placing used teaspoons on the saucer, not the table. It is also customary to eat sandwiches with your fingers, while scones and pastries are eaten with a fork.4. Tea Selection:Tea is, of course, the centerpiece of afternoon tea. Common types of tea served include Earl Grey, Assam, Darjeeling, and English Breakfast. However, various flavored and herbal teas are also popular choices. Loose-leaf tea is typically used, allowing for a more authentic and flavorful experience.5. Sandwiches:Finger sandwiches are a staple of afternoon tea. These are typically made with thinly sliced bread and filled with a variety of fillings, such as cucumber and cream cheese, smoked salmon, egg salad, or ham and mustard. The crusts are usually removed, and the sandwiches are cut into small, bite-sized triangles or rectangles.6. Scones:Scones are another essential component of afternoon tea. These are lightly sweetened, oven-baked pastries that are served with clotted cream and jam. They can be plain or flavored with fruit, such as raisins or cranberries. The traditional way to eat a scone is to split it in half, spread clotted cream on one half, top it with jam, and then place the other half on top.7. Pastries and Cakes:To add a touch of indulgence, an array of pastries and cakes is often served during afternoon tea. This can include bite-sized éclairs, macarons, cupcakes, tarts, and slices of cake. The selection may vary depending on the venue or occasion.8. Afternoon Tea Around the World:While afternoon tea has its roots in Britain, it has been adopted and adapted by cultures worldwide. Countries like India, Malaysia, and Hong Kong have their own versions ofafternoon tea, often incorporating local flavors and delicacies.9. Modern Variations:In addition to the traditional afternoon tea, there are now many variations and themed options available. Champagne afternoon tea includes a glass of champagne alongside the tea, while cream tea focuses on scones with clotted cream and jam. Many establishments also offer vegan or gluten-free afternoon tea options to cater to dietary preferences.10. Dress Code:Some upscale establishments may have a dress code for afternoon tea, with guests expected to dress formally orsmart-casual. It is advisable to check the requirements when making a reservation.In conclusion, afternoon tea is a delightful and refined tradition that offers a chance to enjoy tea, delicacies, andgood company. Its rich history, etiquette, and mouthwatering treats make it a beloved cultural experience cherished by many.。

hightea和lowtea英文介绍
hightea和lowtea英文介绍High Tea and Low Tea: A Guide to English Afternoon Tea TraditionsIntroduction:English afternoon tea is a centuries-old tradition that has become an integral part of British culture. It is a time-honored ritual that brings together friends, family, and acquaintances to enjoy a cup of tea, accompanied by a delectable spread of pastries, sandwiches, and other sweet and savory treats. High tea and low tea are two distinct variations of this tradition, each with its unique characteristics and origins.High Tea:High tea, also known as 'meat tea' or 'family tea,' was the more substantial meal traditionally enjoyed by the working class or rural households. It got its name from the fact that it was served on a high dining table, usually around 5-6 pm, following a day of physical labor. High tea typically consists of hot dishes such as meat pies, sausages, baked beans, and hearty bread, accompanied by a pot of strong tea. This version of afternoon tea was meant to provide sustenance and replenish energy after a long day's work.Low Tea:Low tea, on the other hand, is the refined version of afternoon tea, associated with the upper classes and elegant social gatherings. It earned its name because it was traditionally served on low tables, such as coffee tables or occasional tables, and enjoyed in the late afternoon, around 3-4 pm. Low tea is also referred to as 'afternoon tea' or 'cream tea' and focuses more on small bites and delicate flavors. It typically includes a selection of finger sandwiches, scones with clotted cream and jam, cakes, and pastries, all accompanied by a pot of fragrant tea.Differences between High Tea and Low Tea:1. Ti High tea is typically served in the early evening, whereas low tea is served in the late afternoon.2. Setting: High tea is served on a high dining table, while low tea is served on low tables.3. Food: High tea includes more substantial dishes like meat pies and sausages, whereas low tea features dainty sandwiches, scones, and pastries.4. Purpose: High tea was a substantial meal to satisfy hunger after work, while low tea was a social gathering to enjoy light refreshments.Modern Adaptations:In contemporary times, the terms 'high tea' and 'low tea' are often used interchangeably, and the original distinctions have blurred. Afternoon tea experiences offered at tea rooms, hotels, and restaurants often combine elements of both high tea and low tea. The menu may include a mix of savory and sweet treats, ranging from delicate sandwiches to heartier dishes, accompanied by a wide range of tea options.Conclusion:High tea and low tea are two variations of the quintessentially English tradition of afternoon tea. While high tea was historically associated with the working class, offering substantial dishes, low tea was an elegant social affair for the upper classes. However, these distinctions have become less prominent in modern times, with afternoon tea experiences offering a fusion of both high tea and low tea elements. Whether you prefer a hearty meal or a dainty spread, afternoon tea provides a delightful opportunity to relax, indulge, and enjoy the company of loved ones.。
