Afternoon tea in England

    Afternoon tea is the traditional four o'clock tea. That is a small meal, not just a drink. Traditionally it is made up of tea or coffee and either of the following: Freshly baked scones(新鲜烤饼) served with cream and jam. Afternoon tea sandwiches—thinly sliced cucumber(黄瓜) sandwiches with the crusts(面包皮) cut off.

    Afternoon tea became popular in the early 1840s. At that time, English people ate only two main meals each day, so people often got hungry between the two meals. One day, to spend the time, a woman called Anna asked some of her friends for an afternoon tea at about four o'clock. Together with tea, she served her friends cakes and sandwiches. Soon after that, afternoon tea became popular.

    Afternoon tea is not common these days because most adults go out to work. However you can still have afternoon tea at many tea rooms around England.
