On the lecture day, the auditorium was filled to capacity, everyone was curious about Chinese tea art. At the very beginning, the Chinese teacher introduced the close relations between tea and Chinese culture and the basic knowledge about Chinese tea and tea tools, then, the Chinese teacher demonstrated how to follow eight steps to make Wulong tea, which brought the lecture to a climax. The students and teachers carefully and attentively to the interesting introduction and elegant demonstration provided by the Chinese teachers, they were all anxious to taste the newly-boiled tea.
