Ranked as the number one beverage consumed worldwide, tea takes the lead over coffee in both popularity and production with more than 5 million tons of tea produced annually Although much of this tea is consumed in Asian, European and African countries, the United States drinks its fair share According to estimates by the Tea Council of the United States, tea is enjoyed by

no less than half of the U.S population on any given day Black tea or green tea - iced, spiced, or instant - tea drinking has spurred a billion-dollar business with major tea producers in Africa and South America and throughout Asia

Tea is made from the leaves of an evergreen plant, Camellia sinensis, which grows tall and lush

in tropical regions On tea plantations, the plant is kept trimmed to approximately four feet high

and as new buds called flush appear, they are plucked off by hand Even in today’s world of modern agricultural machinery, hand harvesting continues to be the preferred method Ideally, only the top two leaves and a bud should be pickeb This new growth produces the highest quality tea

After being harvested, tea leaves are laid out on long drying racks, called withering racks, for 18

to 20 hours Next, depending on the type of tea being produced, the leaves may be crushed or chopped to release flavor, and then fermented under controlled conditions of heat and humidity For green tea, the whole leaves are often steamed to retain their green color, and the fermentation process is skipped Producing black teas requires fermentation during which the tea leaves begin

to darken After fermentation, black tea is dried in vats to produce its rich brown or black color

No one knows when or how tea became popular, but legend has it that tea as a beverage, was discovered in 2737 B C by Emperor Shen Nung of China when leaves from a Camellia dropped into his drinking water as it was boiling over a fire As the story goes, Emperor Shen Nung drank the resulting liquid and proclaimed the drink to be most nourishing and refreshing

Though this account cannot be documented, it is thought that tea drinking probably originated in

China and spread to other parts of Asia, then to Europe, and ultimately to America colonies around 1650

With about half the caffeine content as coffee, tea is often chosen by those who want to reduce,

but not necessarily eliminate their caffeine intake Some people find that tea is less acidic than

coffee and therefore easier on the stomach Others have become interested in tea drinking since the National Cancer Institute published its findings on the antioxidant properties of tea But whether tea is enjoyed for its perceived health benefits, its flavor, or as a social drink, teacups continue to be filled daily with the world’s most popular beverage

In the last third of the nineteenth century a new housing form was quietly being developed. In

1869 the Stuyvesant, considered New York’s first apartment house, was built on East Eighteenth Street The building was financed by the developer Rutherfurd Stuyvesant and designed by Richard Morris Hunt, the first American architect to graduate from the Ecole des Beaux Arts in Paris Each man had lived in Paris, and each understood the economic and social potential of this Parisian housing form But the Stuyvesant was at best a limited success In spite of Hunt’s inviting facade, the living place was awkwardly arranged Those who could afford them were

quite content to remain in the more sumptuous, single-family homes, leaving the Stuyvesant to

young married couple and bachelors

The fundamental problem with the Stuyvesant and the other early apartment buildings that

quickly followed, in the late 1870’s and early 1880’s, was that they were confined to the typical

New York building lot That lot was a rectangular area 25 feet wide by 100 feet deep - a shape perfectly suited for a row house The lot could also accommodate a rectangular tenement, though

it could not yield the square, well-lighted, and logically arranged rooms that great apartment buildings require But even with the awkward interior configurations of the early apartment buildings, the idea caught on It met the needs of a large and growing population that wanted something better than tenements but could not afford or did not want row houses

So while the city’s newly emerging social leadership commissioned their mansions, apartment houses and hotels began to sprout on multiple lots, thus breaking the initial space constraints In the closing decades of the nineteenth century, large apartment houses began dotting the developed portions of New York City, and by the opening decades of the twentieth century, spacious buildings, such as the Dakota and the Ansonia finally transcended the tight confinement

of row house building lots From there it was only a small step to building luxury apartment houses on the newly created Park Avenue, right next to the fashionable Fifth Avenue shopping area

Question 43: The new housing form discussed in the passage refers to

A single-family homes B apartment buildings

Question 44: Why was the Stuyvesant a limited success?

Question 45: The word “sumptuous” in paragraph 1 is closest in meaning to

apartments were

A highly educated B unemployed C wealthy D young

Question 47: The word “they” in the passage refers to .

A fundamental problems B the Stuyvesant

C modern apartment buildings D early apartment buildings

Question 48: It can be inferred that a New York apartment building in the 1870’s and 1880’s had

all of the following characteristics EXCEPT

A Its room arrangement was not logical B It was rectangular

C It was spacious inside D It had limited light

Question 49: Why did the idea of living in an apartment become popular in the late 1880’s?

A Large families needed housing with sufficient space

B Apartments were preferable to tenements and cheaper than row houses

C The city officials of “New York wanted housing that was centrally located

D The shape of early apartments could accommodate a variety of interior designs

A they are examples of large, well-designed apartment buildings

B their design is similar to that of row houses

C they were built on a single building lot

D they are famous hotels
