国外官员班：中国是茶的故乡

所以，茶产业与茶文化的互动发展是一部厚 重的历史。
The development of tea industry and tea culture has a complementary relationship, China is the country of original homeland of the tea, is also the birthplace of tea culture, the interactive development of tea industry and the tea culture has a complicated history.
（二）茶产业与茶文化的互动发展史 • The interactive development between Chinese tea industry and tea culture
Tea origin center is a large areas in Yunnan-Guizhou plateau , southwestern China. The reasons base on: 1, Yunnan-Guizhou plateau of China is the distribution center of Theaceae plants 2, It’s found a lot of wild tea trees in Yunnan-Guizhou plateau. 3, Based on the scientific analysis, the biochemical characteristics of China Yunnan-Guizhou plateau wild tea trees belongs to the original type.
• Normally, the tea origin center general can gather rich sources of primary gene, that is to say, the tea tree keeps the primitive traits. In the process of propagation, due to the increase in variation and accumulation of gene, it can form a secondary center and a second center of origin.
production area of coffee is Ethiopia, eastern Africa. Now, coffee is mainly distributed in 76 tropics countries in Latin America, Africa and Asia.

在中国，这样的茶次生中心或第二起源中心主 要是指滇西南、川南黔北毗邻区以及长江三峡 等地区。正因如此，人们往往将茶树的起源中 心以及次生中心统一起来，称中国西南地区是 茶树的原产地。
In China, such secondary center or the second center of origin of tea is mainly refers to areas in southwest China, the Yangtze River area, the three gorges region. In one word, people will tend to unify the origin of tea tree center and secondary center as a whole, and call the southwest China is the origin area of the tea plants.
In the primitive society in China, people mainly used to make a living by hunter-gathering. One of the "three" emperor gods in ancient China, the Yan emper , Shen Nong , discovered tea during his hunter-gatherers. So in the ancient book ―The Tea Classic‖, mentioning that: "tea was discovered by Emperor Shen Nong and then made it as a drink."

• 中国是“茶的故乡” • China –― The Homeland of Tea‖
---龚永新
• by Professor : Gong Yongxin
讲座提纲：The lecture outline:
（中国是茶的“故乡”包括三个方面的含义，一是指中国是茶树原产地；二是指中国茶文明史源远流长；三是指当 今世界所有国家的产茶与饮茶均直接或间接由中国传出）
（二）茶的起源中心 The origin center of tea
茶起源中心是中国西南云贵高原的广大地区。其主要依据为： 1、中国的云贵高原是山茶科植物的分布中心 2、人们在中国的云贵高原发现大量的野生大茶树 3、科学分析，中国云贵高原野生茶树的生化特性属于原始类型。
（当然除此之外，还有来自中国西南茶籽化石以及考古、古代文献等方面的证据）
(一)神农时代（约公元前3000年至前2717年） 茶的发现和茶文化的产生
（这个时期在世界史上称之为上古史，也称之为文明初步形成期）
The discovery of tea and tea culture in ancient China(2717 – 3000B.C. )
中国在原始社会，人类主要靠采猎为生计。“三 皇”之一的炎帝神农在采猎中发现了茶，并将茶 带入人间。于是《茶经》云：“茶之为饮，发乎 神农氏，闻于鲁周公。”

（三）茶次生中心（或第二起源中心）
The secondary center of tea (or second center of origin)
• 茶起源中心一般积集丰富的初级基因源，即具有 多种原始性状的茶树。在由起源中心向传播的过 程中，由于变异的增加和积累，又会形成次生中 心和第二起源中心。
可可原产于南美洲的热带雨林。现主要分布在 赤道南北10º 以内较狭窄地带，主产国有加纳、 巴西、尼日利亚、科特迪亚、厄瓜多尔、多米 尼拉和马来西亚等 The original production area of cocoa is the tropical rainforests of South America. Mainly distributed in the north and south equator about 10 DHS within a narrow area, most of the cocoa are planted in Brazil, Ghana, Nigeria, Kurt drea ,Ecuador, More, la and Malaysia, and so on.
The world's three major crops in soft drinks , coffee, cocoa and tea ,are perennial crops, they all need about 5 years from planting time to production time. The three crops are account most for the world’s consumption, and they all contain bitter alkaloid.
从世界三大软饮料作物说起 Talk from the three largest beverage crops in the world
（所谓软饮料是指酒精含量低于0.5%( 质量比)的天然的或人工配制的饮料）
（一）咖啡、可可、茶coffee, cocoa and tea
世界三大软饮料作物咖啡、可可和茶都是多年生作物， 从种植到投产都需经历约5年左右的培育期，又都是 世界上消费最多的三种软饮料作物，都含有苦味的生 物碱。
二、中国茶产业与茶文化的互动发展史 The interactive development between Chinese tea industry and tea culture
茶产业与茶文化的发展具有相辅相成的关系， 中国是茶的原产地，也是茶文化的发祥地，
（讲茶文化离不开对茶产业的叙述，茶产业发展又是作为茶文化载体的的发展）
茶 Tea 茶原产中国，中国人发现茶并利用茶大约始于公 元 前 2737年。1753年瑞典林奈（C.Linnaeus）将 茶树定名为“Thea sinensis”，意为中国茶树。茶现 广泛分布于亚、非、美、欧、大洋洲的61个国家， 2012年世界产茶面积424.24万hm2，中国有茶园面 积233.33万hm2，占世界茶园总面积的55%。 The original production area of tea is China, it dates back to 2737 B.C. when Chinese people began to discover and use tea. In 1753, Linnaeus from Sweden entitled tea as "Thea sinensis", meaning for Chinese tea. Now, tea is widely distributed in Asia, Africa, America, Europe, Oceania, about 61 countries. In 2012, the wolrd’s tea plantation was 4 242 400 hm2. China was 2 333 300 hm2， which took about 55% of the world’s whole tea
