Laura: The tea smells good. What tea is it?
Benjamin:It's a special green tea named Longjing Tea from Zhejiang province.
Laura:What's special about it except its pleasant smell?
Benjamin:You can see that it keeps the original color of the tea leaves very well.
Laura:They must have some special methods to do this during the process.
Benjamin:Probably. I love green tea. It's one of my daily necessities.
Laura:Then, do you have “tea time” every day? I mean, do you drink tea at a settled time?
Benjamin:Not really. But I really love to have after-meal tea.
Laura:What's the advantage about tea?
Benjamin:There are a lot of them. In hot or warm days, tea helps to dispel the heat and brings on an instant cool with a feeling of relaxation. Moreover, the tea leaves contain a number of chemicals which are good for people's health.
Laura:Does that mean the stronger the better?
Benjamin:No. Constant drinking of over-strong tea would do harm to people's health. So don't make your tea too strong.
Laura:Got it. What's the proper time for tea?
Benjamin:It's fine for most time of the day. But don't have tea before bedtime.
Laura:Why?
Benjamin:It will give rise to occasional insomnia. OK, let's enjoy the tea before it gets cold.

羅拉：這茶真好聞。是什么茶呢？
本杰明：這是一種特殊的綠茶，名叫龍井茶，來自浙江省。
羅拉：除了清新的香味，它還有什么特別的嗎？
本杰明：你可以看到它很好地保持了茶葉原來的顏色。
羅拉：他們一定是在生產過程中用了特殊的方法。
本杰明：很有可能。我喜歡綠茶。它是我日常的必需品。
羅拉：那么，你每天有喝茶的時間嗎？我是想問，你會在固定的時間喝茶嗎？
本杰明：那倒不是。不過我特別喜歡在飯后喝茶。
羅拉：茶的好處是什么？
本杰明：這可多了。在天熱的時候，茶可以驅熱，立刻會帶來一種涼爽而輕松的感覺。而且，茶葉中含有很多有益于人體健康的化學成分。
羅拉：那是不是茶泡得越濃就越好呢？
本杰明：不是。常喝過濃的茶對身體有害。所以別把茶泡得太濃了。
羅拉：知道了。喝茶的適當時間是什么時候？
本杰明：一天中大多數時間都可以。但是睡覺前別喝茶。
羅拉：為什么？
本杰明：那會增大偶然失眠的幾率。好了，我們快喝茶吧，別等它涼了。
