What was the matter with the police? Soapy was really unhappy now, but he stopped making a noise. How could he get to prison(监狱)? The wind was cold, and he pulled his thin coat around him.
But, just then, inside a shop, he saw a man with an expensive umbrella. The man put his umbrella down near the door, and took out a cigarette. Soapy went into the shop, picked up the umbrella, and slowly, he began to walk away. The man came quickly after him. “That’s my umbrella,” he said.
“Oh, is it?” Soapy replied. “Then why don’t you call a policeman? I took it, and you say you’re your umbrella. Go on, then. Call a policeman! Look! There’s one on the corner.” The umbrella man looked unhappy. “Well, you know, perhaps I’ve made a mistake. I took it from a restaurant this morning. If it’s yours, I’m very sorry...”
“Of course it’s my umbrella,” Soapy said.
The policeman looked at them, and the umbrella man walked away. The policeman went to help a beautiful young girl to cross the road.
Soapy was really▲now. He threw the umbrella away and said many bad things about policemen. Just because he wanted to go to prison to spend the coming cold days, they did not want to send him there. He could do nothing wrong!
He began to walk back to Madison Square and home—his seat.
But on a quiet corner, Soapy suddenly stopped. Here, in the middle of the city, was a beautiful old church. Through one purple window he could see a soft light, and sweet music was coming from inside the church. For a few seconds it was like a country church and Soapy remembered other happier days. He thought of the days when he had a mother, friends and beautiful things in his life.
Then he thought about his life now—the empty days, the dead plans. And then a wonderful thing happened. Soapy decided to change his life and be a new man. “Tomorrow,” he said to himself, “I’ll go into town and find work.”
Soapy felt a hand on his arm. He jumped and looked round quickly into the face of a policeman!
—Adapted from Soapy’s Choice by O.Henry

Making tea that “rocks”
Wuyi Rock Tea is a kind of Oolong tea. The tea trees grow on rock cracks (岩缝) in Wuyi Mountain in Fujian. That’s why it’s called rock tea.
Wuyi Rock Tea is famous for its rich smell. It has a fruity, floral and even mineral (矿物质的) smell. The best kind is Dahongpao.
With its long history, Wuyi Rock Tea dates back to the Shang Dynasty. People used to send it to the emperor as a gift. In 2006, the skills of making Wuyi Rock Tea were listed to China’s national intangible cultural heritage list (非物质文化遗产名录). In March 2021, President Xi Jinping visited a tea garden in Wuyi Mountain.
Zhang Huichun, 65, is a master of making Wuyi Rock Tea. In 1980, he learned to make the tea and opened a tea factory. It took him 10 years to learn the skills.
There are 13 steps to make it. Drying, shaking and roasting are three of them. When Zhang shakes tea leaves, he has to decide when to stop by looking at the colour. “From shaking a few times to hundreds of times, only years of experience can help you find it out,” Zhang said.
The last step, roasting, is also important. It often takes more than 20 hours! “Every 50 minutes, you have to turn over the leaves, or it might burn,” Zhang said. He often stays up late to roast the tea.
Although Zhang is already good at it, he said he is still learning. “Every step is full of changes—different tea trees and weather. Every time is an adventure.”
To help more tea makers, Zhang often works with schools to teach the skills. “It’s my responsibility (责任) to pass on the skills.”

What was the matter with the police? Soapy was really unhappy now, but he stopped making a noise. How could he get to prison(监狱)? The wind was cold, and he pulled his thin coat around him.
But, just then, inside a shop, he saw a man with an expensive umbrella. The man put his umbrella down near the door, and took out a cigarette. Soapy went into the shop, picked up the umbrella, and slowly, he began to walk away. The man came quickly after him. “That’s my umbrella,” he said.
“Oh, is it?” Soapy replied. “Then why don’t you call a policeman? I took it, and you say you’re your umbrella. Go on, then. Call a policeman! Look! There’s one on the corner.” The umbrella man looked unhappy. “Well, you know, perhaps I’ve made a mistake. I took it from a restaurant this morning. If it’s yours, I’m very sorry...”
“Of course it’s my umbrella,” Soapy said.
The policeman looked at them, and the umbrella man walked away. The policeman went to help a beautiful young girl to cross the road.
Soapy was really▲now. He threw the umbrella away and said many bad things about policemen. Just because he wanted to go to prison to spend the coming cold days, they did not want to send him there. He could do nothing wrong!
He began to walk back to Madison Square and home—his seat.
But on a quiet corner, Soapy suddenly stopped. Here, in the middle of the city, was a beautiful old church. Through one purple window he could see a soft light, and sweet music was coming from inside the church. For a few seconds it was like a country church and Soapy remembered other happier days. He thought of the days when he had a mother, friends and beautiful things in his life.
Then he thought about his life now—the empty days, the dead plans. And then a wonderful thing happened. Soapy decided to change his life and be a new man. “Tomorrow,” he said to himself, “I’ll go into town and find work.”
Soapy felt a hand on his arm. He jumped and looked round quickly into the face of a policeman!

Making tea that “rocks”
Wuyi Rock Tea is a kind of Oolong tea. The tea trees grow on rock cracks (岩缝) in Wuyi Mountain in Fujian. That’s why it’s called rock tea.
Wuyi Rock Tea is famous for its rich smell. It has a fruity, floral and even mineral (矿物质的) smell. The best kind is Dahongpao.
With its long history, Wuyi Rock Tea dates back to the Shang Dynasty. People used to send it to the emperor as a gift. In 2006, the skills of making Wuyi Rock Tea were listed to China’s national intangible cultural heritage list (非物质文化遗产名录). In March 2021, President Xi Jinping visited a tea garden in Wuyi Mountain.
Zhang Huichun, 65, is a master of making Wuyi Rock Tea. In 1980, he learned to make the tea and opened a tea factory. It took him 10 years to learn the skills.
There are 13 steps to make it. Drying, shaking and roasting are three of them. When Zhang shakes tea leaves, he has to decide when to stop by looking at the colour. “From shaking a few times to hundreds of times, only years of experience can help you find it out,” Zhang said.
The last step, roasting, is also important. It often takes more than 20 hours! “Every 50 minutes, you have to turn over the leaves, or it might burn,” Zhang said. He often stays up late to roast the tea.
Although Zhang is already good at it, he said he is still learning. “Every step is full of changes—different tea trees and weather. Every time is an adventure.”
To help more tea makers, Zhang often works with schools to teach the skills. “It’s my responsibility (责任) to pass on the skills.”
