问题 By definition, tea is produced from the leaves of the Camellia sinensis, an evergreen plant grown mainly in the tropical and sub-tropical climates of Asia, though some varieties can also tolerate cooler, marine climates and are cultivated as far north as Great Britain and the coastal western United States. The most popular varieties of tea plant are the China and the Assam. The leaves of these plants are variously processed and blended with many different strains and fragrances to create the most popular tea varieties and flavors. While extracted oils, like bergamot, may be added to create signature flavors, such as Earl Grey, most recognized tea varieties are created through different methods of processing the tea leaves themselves. In fact, tea is traditionally classified based on the techniques with which it is produced and processed. For example, white teas are produced from wilted and unoxidized leaves. Oolongs are from wilted, bruised, and partially oxidized leaves. And black teas are produced from wilted, sometimes crushed, and fully oxidized leaves.
Which of these statements about teas does the information in this passage support?Select all such statements.

选项 A、Tea plants can be cultivated across the northern hemisphere.
B、Tea leaves can be blended with various fragrances to create new flavors of tea.
C、Tea varieties are classified according to their individual processing method.

答案B,C

解析 The best answer is B and C. Choice B is implied in the author’s assertion that the leaves of tea plants are blended with many different fragrances to create the most popular tea varieties and flavors. Choice C is supported by the statement that "tea is traditionally classified based on the techniques with which it is produced and processed." Therefore, both choices are supported by the passage, and both are necessary to receive credit for this question. Choice A refers to a far broader geographical area than is cited in the passage, and so is not supported as an answer choice.
