参考范文:
Ok then, well the product I’d like to talk to you about is Longjing tea, which is a type of green tea, and is very popular around the country.
I guess you could translate it as “Dragon Well” tea, which I’ve heard some people say, but to me that sounds kind of strange. And I think it’s better to just call it by its Chinese name, Longjing tea, which is also the name of the area where it’s grown.
But anyway, as for where you can buy it, well, here in Hangzhou, you can find it pretty easily, because there are quite a number of tea shops dotted around the city, all of which sell it. But as for other parts of the country, I’d say it’s a bit more hard to come by, but I’m sure if you looked hard enough you’d be able to find it in most cities.
And regarding why it’s popular, well I guess the main reason probably lies in the taste, which is quite subtle, but at the same time, very distinctive. And if you’ve ever had it before, you’ll notice that the flavour kind of lingers in your mouth, especially if the tea's good-quality. However, I should warn you that the best Longjing tea is incredibly expensive. You know, you’re probably looking at something in the region of seven to eight thousand rmb for half a kilogram. But you can also buy perfectly good Longjing tea for several hundred rmb for half a kilo, so the price varies considerably between the different grades. And if you do ever decide to buy some, then make sure to taste some first, as that will give you a much better idea of what to go for.
So yeah, I guess that’s about it!
