12.Most people think zoos are safe for animals,where struggles such as difficulty in finding food and avoiding natural enemies don't exist.Without such problems,animals in zoos should live to an old age.But that may not be true for the largest land animals on earth.Scientists have known that elephants in zoos often suffer from poor health.They develop diseases and behaviour changes.Sometimes,they even become unable to have babies.To learn more about how elephants are affected,a team of international scientists compared the life spans of elephants born in zoos with those living outdoors in their native lands.Zoos keep detailed records of all the animals,such as birth dates,illnesses,weight and death.These records made it possible for the researchers to analyse 40years of data on 800African and Asian elephants in zoos across Europe.The team found that female African elephants born in zoos lived an average of 16.9years while those in the wild lived an average of 56years.Scientists don't yet know why wild elephants seem to be so much better than their zooraised elephants.Georgia Mason,a biologist who led the study,thinks stress and obesity(肥胖) may be to blame.Zoo elephants don't get the same kind of exercise they would in the wild,and most are fat.
Another finding from the study showed that Asian elephants born in zoos were more likely to die early than Asian elephants caught in the wild and brought to zoos.Mason suggests stress in the mothers in zoos might cause them to have babies that are less likely to survive.

Chinese tea is a drink made from the leaves of tea plants and boiled water.Tea leaves are processed using traditional Chinese methods.
Chinese tea is drunk throughout the day,including during meals,as something instead of plain water,for health,or for simple pleasure.
Below is a list of ten popular teas of China.
The highest grades of white tea,yellow tea,and green tea are made from tender (嫩的) teashoots (幼苗) picked early spring.These young tea shoots may consist of a single terminal bud (末端的芽),a bud with its next leaf or a bud with two next thin and long unfufied (未张开的) leaves.It is generally required that the leaves are equal in length or shorter than the buds.
The more-oxidized (氧化的) tea--such as red or oolong tea--are made from more mature (成熟的) leaves.The Anxi Tieguanyin,for example,is made from one bud with two to four leaves.
Not all high grade green tea is made from tender tea shoots.The highly regarded green tea Liu An Gua Pian is made from more matured leaves.
Traditionally these tender tea shoots are picked before 5April,or the Qingming Festival.The standard practice is to start picking when 5% of the garden is ready,or when the tea buds reach certain size.
