Brewing Interest Through Ecological Cultivation 10 | Friday, April 5, 2019 CHINA DAILY HOLIDAYTRAVEL Editor's Note: Qingming Festival is an important time in the lunar calendar for farmers to plan their agricultural activities. It has particular significance on tea culture, partially deciding the quality, and henceforth price, of the tea leaves. China Daily picks four famous types of tea that are produced at four equally renowned mountainous areas across the country at which you can sip the beverage, enjoy the landscape and embrace the season of spring. Tea tourists infuse new life into rural China Traditional cultivation, harvesting and sampling of the restorative leaves — as well as their plantations’ bucolic locales — is proving to be a draw for the country’s city dwellers aroma of the tea that he decided to a unique natural floral and fruity a coat of small white “hairs”, which is Scent from Suzhou for 1,000 years give it a more elegant name to tone. essential for high-grade Biluochun. match its lingering note on the pal- “Premium biluochun is sold at Local people pluck only the earli- ate. 9,000 yuan ($1,340) per kilo,” he est buds to get the best flavor.

McPhee Received: 3 September 2016; Accepted: 28 October 2016; Published: 30 October 2016 Abstract: Tea (Camellia sinensis) is a beverage beneficial to health and is also a source for extracting bioactive components such as theanine, tea polyphenols (TPP) and tea polysaccharides (TPS). TPS is a group of heteropolysaccharides bound with proteins. There is evidence showing that TPS not only improves immunity but also has various bioactivities, such as antioxidant, antitumor, antihyperglycemia, and anti-inflammation. However, inconsistent results concerning chemical composition and bioactivity of TPS have been published in recent years. The advances in chemical composition and bioactivities of TPS are reviewed in the present paper. The inconsistent and controversial results regarding composition and bioactivities of TPS are also discussed.

Forty mineral elements in 87 tea samples from three growing regions in Guizhou Province (China), namely Meitan and Fenggang (MTFG), Anshun (AS) and Leishan (LS) were analyzed. Chemometrics evaluations were conducted using a one-way analysis of variance (ANOVA), principal component analysis (PCA), linear discriminant analysis (LDA), and orthogonal partial least squares discriminant analysis (OPLS-DA). The results showed that the concentrations of the 28 elements were significantly different among the three regions (p < 0.05). The correct classification rates for the 87 tea samples were 98.9% for LDA and 100% for OPLS-DA. The variable importance in the projection (VIP) values ranged between 1.01–1.73 for 11 elements (Sb, Pb, K, As, S, Bi, U, P, Ca, Na, and Cr), which can be used as important indicators for geographical origin identification of tea samples.

Received: July 8, 2019 Accepted: September 26, 2019 Online Published: October 28, 2019 doi:10.5539/ies.v12n11p187 URL: https://doi.org/10.5539/ies.v12n11p187 Abstract Since the 21st century, China has put forward the “going out strategy of Chinese culture” which aims at realizing the awakening, reviving, integrating and spreading of Chinese culture. China emphasizes strengthening and improving the spreading of Chinese culture in order to enhance the soft power of national culture. China needs to cultivate intercultural communicative talents that can display Chinese culture to the world through an appropriate path with profound intercultural communication awareness and excellent intercultural communicative competence. Being representative of Chinese traditional culture, tea culture carries a long history of China. This paper takes the tea culture as an example for teaching design from the aspects of analysis, design, development, implementation, and evaluation based on the ADDIE model, aiming at optimizing the teaching design of Chinese culture into English teaching and cultivating students’ intercultural communicative ability. Keywords: ADDIE model, Chinese culture, teaching design, tea culture, intercultural communicative competence 1.
