When I was going home to India last year, I called up my mother to ask if she wanted anything from China.
When India had not 36 its markets to the world, I carried suitcase loads of dark glasses and jeans. 37 , we can get all these anywhere in India now.
Still, her answer 38 me: “Green tea.” As long as I can remember she didn’t even drink 39 tea. I dutifully bought a big packet of Longjing and 40 home to hear the story. My mother and her brother, both 41 newspaper readers, believed that Chinese green tea was the wonder 42 for all illnesses.

No wonder, my colleague wrote some weeks ago about this 54 the Sino-Indian(中印)century as the two countries started on January 1 the Sino-Indian Friendship Year.
But what is still a 55 to me is my mother drinking Chinese tea.
