【正确答案】Tea was originally produced in China. Chinese people formed a habit of drinking tea more than 4000 years ago. During the Tang Dynasty, Japanese monks introduced tea seeds to Japan, and combined tea culture with Zen Buddhism which was also introduced to Japan, so the world-famous Japanese tea ceremony was created. In the 17th century, Dutch businessmen took Chinese people’s habit of drinking tea to Europe, and thus the European custom of drinking tea was formed, such as the afternoon tea in Britain. Before the 19th century, all the tea in the world was produced in China. The pronunciation of "tea" in English is derived from that in Fujian dialect. Tea is an important contribution made by Chinese people to the world.

【答案解析】1. 第二句中，“有……的习惯”可以用formed／had a habit of…来表达。2. 第三句的前半句和后半句之间暗含因果关系，英译时可增译so来体现这种因果关系。其中的“引入”可译为“introduced…to…”；“同样是引入的”可译为定语从句，修饰“禅宗思想”；“形成了……”可译为…was created，以符合英文中被动表主动的表达习惯。3. 第四句中，“荷兰商人”可以翻译为Dutch businessmen，“下午茶”可以翻译为the afternoon tea。4. 第五句中，“根据……而来”可用is derived from…表示，译文中的that指代the pronunciation of “tea”。
