In different countries, people have different ideas about drinking tea.In China, for example, tea is often served when people get together. Chinese people drink it at home or in tea houses at any time of the day. They often use hot water to boil tea leaves.Tea is also important in other Asian countries. People in these countries have a special way of serving tea. They hold a tea ceremony in their houses when important guests come. It is very old and full of meaning. Everything must be done in a special way in the ceremony. There is even a special room for it in their houses.In the United States, people usually drink tea at breakfast or they drink it after meals. Americans usually use tea bags to make tea. This way is faster and easier than the way of making tea in teapots. In summer, most Americans drink iced tea.

On this day, people celebrate the MidAutumn Festival. It has been enjoying great popularity all over the country.In ancient China, that day was a harvest(收获)festival because crops(庄稼) were harvested during that period. It was a time for relaxation and celebration.Just like Thanksgiving in Western countries, families also try to get together for the MidAutumn Festival in China. Usually, no matter how far away or how busy they are, people will try to return home for the celebration.The MidAutumn Festival has its own special food just as other traditional Chinese holidays. People eat moon cakes with fillings such as sugar and eggs. The round shape of the cake makes it look like the full moon.
