③Boiling tea is one of the oldest Chinese tea brewing(煮沏)
methods, dating back(追溯) to the Tang Dynasty(618-907). Tea

(1368-1644), a faster and more convenient method become more

in a natural setting and have snacks with their hot tea. Some also wear
traditional hanfu as if it could take them back to those ancient times.

Passage 3 [2024三明一模改编]
Few words are spoken more often every day on the streets of
Britain than “I'm sorry”. This phrase has become such a common
response(反应) that it has taken on a lot of meanings.
Saying “Sorry” means to apologize(道歉). This is simple and easy
to understand. We learn it. .both as a native speaker and as a student of
foreign languages.
20
But in Britain, it takes on another meaning. It is a cultural
expression. Imagine this: a man walks down the street, looking down at
his phone. A woman is walking in the opposite direction, towards the
man. She sees him, but she can't get out of the way in time. The man
bumps(碰撞) into the woman. Who should say sorry? Naturally, the
man should say sorry, because it was he who wasn't looking where he
was going. Yet in Britain, it is common for both to apologize.
It is known that British people, like most people, do not enjoy
conflict(冲突). So to quickly calm the situation, British people will
apologize to each other.
Other times it may sound funny to hear “sorry”. Some of my
friends say it at restaurants, as they ask the waiter, “Sorry, but can I
order another drink?” It is not to apologize, but just to express that we
need the waiter. In Britain, sorry doesn't always mean exactly what you
think.
