More than tea in a cup

　　“You know, these cups bring to mind a tea quote(说法)I heard．” Mary's aunt said．

　　She poured tea．There were four of them and there were four totally different cups on the table．

　　They grabbed(拿起)their tea cups．

　　“What quote? ” Mary asked．

　　“Well, maybe I should rather say it is a story, ” aunt said, “I heard there was this wise teacher who took all his students for tea．They were surprised that all the cups on the table were different．They all took a cup and started drinking their tea, each looking at the cups of others．The teacher let them do that for a while and then said： “ Do you notice your behavior? You are all looking at each other's tea cup and I can see some of you with the chipped(有殊缺的)ones are even envious(羡慕的)of the finer cups of others．Is this not so? ”

　　The students agreed, amused by their own behavior．

　　“You may have wondered why you all had different cups, but I put them here on purpose．You see-they represent life itself．Life is like that tea–-and the cups are like the physical circumstances(状况)of your life．You all got the same thing in your cups-tea．And yet you cannot truly enjoy it in your envy of another's cup．It's just the same with life．You forget to enjoy your own life when you concentrate on envying the circumstances of someone else's life．

　　So now, close your eyes, and taste your own tea．Really taste it．And tell me – did it matter from which cup it came from? ”

　　Aunt finished telling her short tea story and they all sat in silence for a while, savoring(品尝)their tea．A sleepy fly buzzed(嗡嗡作响)past, a bird sang in the tree．And it really did not matter one bit from which tea cup they drank．

“You know, these cups bring to mind a tea quote(说法) I heard.” Mary’s aunt said.

She poured tea. There were four of them and there were four totally different cups on the table.

They took their tea cups.

“What quote?” Mary asked.

“Well, maybe I should rather say it is a story,” aunt said, “I heard that there was a wise teacher who took all his students for tea. They were surprised that all the cups on the table were different. Each of them took a cup and started drinking their tea, each looking at the cups of others. The teacher let them do that for a while and then said,‘ Do you notice your behavior? You are all looking at each other’s tea cup and I can see some of you with the broken ones are even envious(羡慕的) of the finer cups of others. Is this not so?’ ”

The students agreed, amused by their own behavior.

“You may have wondered why you all had different cups, but I put them here on purpose. You see they represent (代表) life itself. Life is like that tea and the cups are like the physical circumstances(状况) of your life. You all got the same thing in your cups — tea.

You forget to enjoy your own life when you concentrate on envying the circumstances of someone else’s life.

So now, close your eyes, and taste your own tea. Really taste it. And tell me — did it matter from which cup it came from?”

Aunt finished telling her short tea story and they all sat in silence for a while, tasting their tea. A sleepy fly buzzed(嗡嗡作响) past, a bird sang in the tree. And it really did not matter one bit from which tea cup they drank.

The Mandarin Chinese word for “cha” is pronounced “t'e” in certain Chinese dialects(方言). Also the Malay word for the leaf is“the”. This word “the” was used to describe both the drink and the leaf. The Japanese character for tea is written exactly the same as the Chinese, though pronounced with a slight difference; so these may be the origins of our word tea in the western world.

Tea may have been discovered in 2737 BC by Shen Nong, a Chinese Emperor of the San Huang Period（3,000 - 2,700 BC）. He was a scholar, the father of agriculture and the inventor of Chinese herbal medicine. One summer day, while visiting a distant place, he and the court stopped to rest and his servants began to boil water for the court to drink. Dried leaves from the nearby bush fell into the boiling water, and made it a brown liquid. The Emperor was interested in the new liquid, drank some, and found it very refreshing. The tree was a wild tea tree, and so, tea was created.

The first samples(样品) of tea reached England between 1652 and 1654. Tea was referred to as the China drink, tcha, chaw, tay, tee, and tea and was at first regarded more as a medicine than a fashionable drink. The original English pronunciation of the word tea was “tay” and can be traced back to around 1655 when the Dutch introduced both word and beverage（饮料）to England. The pronunciation “tee” also originated in the 1600's but only gained predominance（主导地位）after the late 18th century.

By 1650 the Dutch were actively involved in trade throughout the Western world. During that year Peter Stuyvesant brought the first tea to America to the colonists（殖民地定居者）in the Dutch settlement of New Amsterdam （later re-named New York）.
