Accounts of its origins vary.
Drinking a blend of black teas
for breakfast is indeed a
longstanding British custom.
The practice of referring to
such a blend as "English
breakfast tea" appears to
have originated not in
England but America, as far
back as Colonial times.
English Breakfast tea is a
black tea blend usually
described as full-bodied,
robust , and/or rich, and
blended to go well with milk
and sugar, in a style
traditionally associated with
a hearty English breakfast. It
is the most common style of
tea in Britain.
Many children at school and adults at work will have a
'packed lunch'. This typically consists of a sandwich, a
packet of crisps, a piece of fruit and a drink. The
'packed lunch' is kept in a plastic container.
The traditional lunch break is
disappearing, with workers spending
only 3.5 minutes a day eating their
midday meal, according to new research.
While people used to take their
break with a leisurely meal or stroll ,
they now spend their time shopping,
making personal calls or checking their
online bank account.

Ö You might be surprised to learn that British people love tea.
In fact,
afternoon tea is more than just a drink – sometimes it's a complete meal.
Ö著名作家Henry James曾经说过:“There are few hours in life more
agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea.”
origination
₪The custom of taking afternoon tea is believed to have been first
introduced in England in 1840 by Anna, the Seventh Duchess of Bedford. At
that time lunch was taken early and dinner was not served in the evening
until about 9 pm. The Duchess apparently became hungry in the afternoon
and asked for some tea, bread and butter and cake to be brought to her
room. This soon became a habit and the Duchess started to invite friends
round to join her.
₪Very quickly it became fashionable to take tea in the middle of the
afternoon and the occasion became more and more elaborate with the use
of elegant tea ware, lace and embroidered table linen , bone china tea
services, cake stands, tea canisters and blending bowls. During the 1880's
upper-class and society women would change into long gowns, gloves and
hats for their afternoon tea which was usually served in the drawing room
between four and five o'clock.
origination
₪Traditional afternoon tea consists of a selection of
dainty sandwiches (including of course thinly sliced
cucumber sandwiches), scones served with clotted
cream and preserves. Cakes and pastries are also
served.
₪Nowadays however, in the average suburban home,
afternoon tea is likely to be just a biscuit or small cake
and a mug of tea, usually produced using a teabag.
