One thing that British and Chinese cultures share is a love for fine tea．Today，when we think of Western tea culture，we often think of the English and beautiful china tea cups．People believe that an English lady．Anna．first introduced the idea of“Afternoon tea”．In the 18th and 19th centuries，the English ate only two main meals each day--breakfast and a heavy supper that would last for several hours in the evening．As a result，people often got very hungry during the long wait between these two meals．To solve this problem，Anna invited some friends to join her for an afternoon meal between four and five o’clock．This meal included cakes and sandwiches，and tea was served to wash down the food．In order to make this afternoon meal important，fine china cups and plates，silver teapots，knives，forks and spoons were used．Soon，afternoon tea parties became popular．

Today，afternoon tea parties continue to play an important part in the social life in modem Britain．

Coffee also has an important role in British culture．People often use “Will you come for coffee?”to mean“Would you like to come to my home or a chat?”Normally，several drinks such as tea．hot chocolate or a soft drink like orange juice will be served as well as coffee，And you will be asked what you would like．However，you will not be offered wine at a“coffee”party．

In northern Scotland there is a deep lake called Loch Ness. It is more than 200 metres deep and it is the deepest lake in the United Kingdom.

Many people travel to Loch Ness to look for this strange monster, but only a few people say that they saw it. No one knows whether (是否) these people really saw it or not.
