Swiss designer Didier Rudolf Quarroz's love of Chinese tea culture has inspired him to design innovative new items to brew the tea. Quarroz developed an interest in Chinese tea after working at a Shanghaibased design company, where he was by chance engaged in a tea project.
His research helped him develop a deep understanding of the differences between Chinese and Western tea products. And this made him think about designing items for foreigners to brew Chinese tea. “I hope to design easytouse and modern teamaking tools to help foreigners try Chinese traditional tea and give them an interesting experience in brewing tea,” Quarroz says.
In 2017, he moved to Hangzhou, capital of East China's Zhejiang Province and a major teaproduction base, to explore the possibilities of applying Western concepts in designing objects for Chinese tea. “I want to focus on the tea industry, and Hangzhou is a great fit because of the long history and profound culture of tea here,” Quarroz says.
Quarroz began to concentrate on the design of a tea infuser (注射器) to make brewing easier for foreigners. It's a glass container with a silicone (硅胶) lid. All users need to do is to put the leaves inside, place it in a cup and add hot water. “The infuser can be taken out from the cup easily without users' fingers being hurt by the hot water,” Quarroz says.
Hangzhou has a booming tea industry, which has offered the Swiss designer many opportunities to cooperate with local plantations and companies. “Driven by the love of Chinese tea, I cooperate with local companies and help them to develop new kinds of tea products. Also, we sometimes organize workshops to introduce different teas to the public,” Quarroz says.
Hangzhou also enables smooth business operations, he adds. “In general, it is easy to start a business in Hangzhou. And the government and agencies are increasing efforts to help and support young entrepreneurs, including us from foreign countries,” he adds. Quarroz says he plans to design 10 innovative tearelated products by combining Chinese tea culture with international elements.

篇章导读:本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了新疆天山托木尔大峡谷的地理环境和自然景观。
1.valleys 考查名词。设空处应用名词,作consists of的宾语,valley为可数名词,根据设空前three可知,应用名词复数。故填valleys。
2.Situated 考查非谓语动词。固定短语(be) situated in ... 意为“位于……”,设空处应用形容词作状语,句首单词首字母大写。故填Situated。
3.as 考查介词。句意:它位于新疆西北部托木尔峰脚下,又被称为“库杜鲁克大峡谷”,在维吾尔语中意为“惊险而神秘”。be known as ... 为固定短语,意为“被称为……”。故填as。
4.which 考查定语从句的引导词。设空处引导非限制性定语从句,先行词为“Kuduluk Grand Canyon”,指物,从句中缺少主语。故填which。
5.was listed 考查动词的时态、语态和主谓一致。根据On June 21, 2013可知,句子陈述的是过去发生的事,应用一般过去时;Tianshan Mountains与list为被动关系,且Tianshan Mountains为专有名词,视为单数,谓语动词应用单数。故填was listed。
6.largest 考查形容词的最高级。根据定冠词the和among the four places可知,此处应用形容词最高级。故填largest。
7.accounting 考查非谓语动词。area和account for之间为逻辑上的主动关系,应用现在分词作状语。故填accounting。
8.that 考查宾语从句的连接词。设空处引导宾语从句,从句意义完整,不缺任何成分,应用that引导。故填that。
