China is the hometown of tea.Before the Tang Dynasty，Chinese tea was sold by land and sea，first to Japan and South Korea
It is said that Chinese tea was discovered by Shen Nong.People say that he lived 5，000 years ago.One summer day，while he was visiting a faraway part of his country，so he began to boil（煮沸） water for himself to drink.Some dry leaves from a near plant fell into the water.Shen Nong drank some，Shen Nong was interested in the new drink.And so，tea was created in 2737 BC.

Good and bad manners（礼仪） make up the social rules of a country.They are not always easy to learn because they are often not written in books.Let's see some social rules in Britain.
In the past，most British women didn't go to pubs（酒吧） because it was not considered good behavior for a woman.Now both women and men can drink freely in pubs.
Visitors to Britain often see British people wait in line in public places.It is considered impolite to get on a bus without waiting your turn in line.And if you don't wait your turn，the other people in line will probably warn you to line up loudly.
In some countries it is considered bad manners to eat in the street.However，in Britain it is common to see people having a snack while walking down the road.
British people used to be surprised to see young children in restaurants in the evening because children were not usually taken out to restaurants at night.These days children are playing a more active role and they are now accepted in many restaurants at night.
In recent years，many British companies have banned smoking in their offices and even in the whole buildings.Smoking is also banned on the London Underground，in cinemas and theaters and on most buses.It can be seen less and less in public places.It is also considered bad manners to smoke in someone's house without asking the owner.
Social rules are an important part of every country.The British have an expression for these"unwritten rules"：When in Rome，do as the Romans do.
Parents should stop blaming(责备) themselves because there's not a lot they can do about it. I mean the teenager problem. Whatever you do or however you choose to deal with it, at certain times a wonderful, reasonable and helpful child will turn into a terrible animal. I've seen friends deal with it in all kinds of different ways. One strict mother insisted that her son, right from a child, should stand up whenever anyone entered the room, open doors an d shake hands like a gentleman. I saw him last week when I called round.
Sprawling（懒散地躺） himself on the sofa in full length，he made no attempt（尝试），and his greeting was no more than a quick glance at me.His mother was ashamed. "I don't know what to do with him these days，"she said."He's forgotten all the manners we taught him."
He hasn't forgotten them.He's just decided that he's not going to use them.She said that she would like to come up behind him and throw him down from the sofa onto the floor.
Another good friend of mine let her two daughters climb all over the furniture，reach across the table，stare at me and say
"Where did we go wrong？"her parents are now very sad.Probably nowhere much.
At least，no more than the rest of that unfortunate race，parents.
The Internet is one of the greatest inventions in human history.However，this great invention has some problems.Everything you do online leaves a small track（痕迹）.
