Write a paragraph of about 200- 250 words on the history of TEA FROM ASSAM

Answer:

There is a recurring majestic myth that says Assam tea owes its discovery to Robert Bruce, a Scottish gentleman who noticed Assam tea plants growing wild near Rangpur, in the hills, way back in 1823 when he was on a trading mission. Bruce was reportedly directed by Maniram Dewan to Bessa Gam who was the local Singpho chief. He showed Bruce how local tribesmen (known as the Singhpos) brew tea from leaves of this bush. Bruce made an arrangement with the tribal chief to give him samples of these tea leaves with seeds, as he planned on having them scientifically examined. As luck would have it, Robert Bruce passed away a few years later, never having seen this plant being properly classified.

In early 1830, Robert Bruce’s brother, Charles, sent a few of these leaves to a botanical garden in Calcutta to be properly examination and it was then that this plant was officially classified as a tea variety. It is said that these leaves were classified as belonging to the same specie as china tea plants.

The first company that was set up for making and growing this tea was called the Assam Tea Company and started in the year 1839. In the coming years, Assam Tea kept spreading its realm and by 1862, the Assam Tea business comprised of over 160 gardens all owned by 5 public companies along with 57 private players. It was later that the government decided to appoint a special commission for enquiring about every aspect of this company. Today, Assam Tea generates huge revenue amounts and is one of the most favoured tea in the country.

Bristish East India Company’s intervention was recognised through ‘experts’ who constituted the 1834 Tea Committee and they assessed the commercial potential and scientific nature of the Assam tea. By late 1830s, market for the Assam Tea began to be evaluated in London and the East India Company’s positive feedback led to the inauguration of a lengthy process of withdrawal of agricultural lands and forests to allow significant shares of this province to be converted to tea plantations by the private capital.

Assam is famous all across the globe for its natural beauty, tea plantations and the quality of Assam tea. The mountain region, pleasant climate and greenery of this place make it a location to remember. In fact, Assam was the place where Indian Tea originated over 165 years ago. It is currently one of the most coveted Tea production spot in the world. The two sides of the famous Brahmaputra River are home to the world’s biggest Tea growing region. This area produces more than 400 million kilograms of Tea every year and the beautifully breath-taking tea estates in Assam cover over 2,16,200 hectare of land. Home to more than a hundred tea estates, Assam offers every tea lover malty flavoured and full bodied Assam Tea, the bright liquor which will surely be loved by a tea addict.

Production and cultivation of Assam tea was dominated by Assam Company for the 1st two decades (from 1840 to 1860), which operated from districts in Upper Assam using labour from local Kachari. The company’s success along with changes in the colonial policies of offering plots to tea planters (by the Fee simple rule) led to the expansion and boom in Assam tea’s industry during early 1860s.

Tea plants are grown in Assam lowlands, unlike Nilgiris and Darjeelings, which grow on the highlands. Assam tea bushes grow in lowland regions, like the Valley of Brahmaputra River where there is clay soil and rich nutrients from the floodplain. Climate in this region varies between hot/humid to cool/arid winter and rainy season—all conditions perfect for growing Assam tea.

The Assam Tea is a malty and brisk tea, bright in colour and packed with that perfect punch of fruitiness. This tea is black and is manufactured specially from Camellia sinensis var. assamica plant. Famous for its briskness, body, bright colour and strong malty flavour, Assam Tea India and other blends containing this tea, are sold as a ‘breakfast’ tea. The Irish version of breakfast tea is a bit more malty and is a stronger tea, consisting of the best Assam tea in a small quantity.

Explanation:

Insomnia is the inability to fall asleep or to maintain a restful
sleep throughout the night. People who suffer from insomnia-
also called insomniacs—often experience decreased energy,
mood swings, and difficulty performing well in school and work
activities. This sleep disorder can last for days, weeks, or years.
People who suffer from this disorder can experience early
insomnia (difficulty falling asleep), middle insomnia (waking up in
the middle of the night), or late insomnia (waking up earlier than
desired)
There is not one single cause for insomnia. Some insomniacs
experience sleep disturbances because of depression, anxiety, or
a mental illness. Other times, insomnia is caused by outside
influences such as a noisy sleeping environment, a lack of
exercise, or too much caffeine ingested during the day. Often a
doctor will investigate a patient's lifestyle and sleeping habits as a
first step in diagnosing the cause of his or her insomnia.
Insomnia can be treated in many different ways, and most
often, lifestyle changes are recommended by doctors. Some of
the most commonly suggested home remedies for insomnia are
sticking to a sleep schedule, avoiding naps during the day,
removing electronic devices and bright lights from the bedroom,
and drinking warm milk before attempting sleep. If insomnia
persists or begins to negatively impact the sufferer's life, medical
attention should be sought.

A study the best medications to cure sleep disturbances

B write a paper about the first Doctor to diagnose insomnia.

C learn more about the causes of sleep disturbance.

D learn more about famous people who had insomnia ​

The chimney swift's adaptability was severely hindered around 1970s.  3. The first paragraph in the passage on chimney swifts includes this description: "...large colonies of hundreds, or even thousands, of individuals form tornado-like funnels." Why does the author include this in the passage? A. It proves the author is an expert in bird studies B. It provides the reader with an engaging image C. It establishes the passage as a work of fiction D. It offers supporting evidence for the claim  4. Based on the passage, which of the following statements is true? A. The author provides facts to support the main idea B. The author uses an informal style that appeals to readers C. The author has an extensive background in bird studies D. The author relies on first-hand observation of chimney swift behavior  5. Which of the following lists support the main idea of the passage? A. Chimney swifts appear in North America in summer, migrate to the tropics in winter, and give birth in the spring B. Logging and deforestation, changes in the ways we heat our buildings, and chimney capping have robbed the chimney swift of its preferred roosting sites C. The small, slender bird known as the chimney swift migrates in large numbers, can be seen only at dusk, and raises its young in the tropics D. Metal-lined chimneys, chimney towers, and reforestation efforts will ultimately result in the growth of the chimney swift population 6. Which of the following conclusions can swift population  6. Which of the following conclusions can the reader make from the passage? A. Metal flumes are inserted in masonry chimneys to prevent birds, such as chimney swifts, from nesting in them B. Chimney swifts can easily adapt roosting behaviors to any structure made of the proper material C. Chimney swifts are nocturnal birds whose large numbers are evident in the size of their colonies D. Moving in large chipping flocks is a natural protection against predators Chimney swifts are small, slender birds that have become a symbol of summer for many. They usually appear in North America during warm, summer months as they make their way to more tropical sites for the winter. They are recognized most often as spectacular, chirping flocks moving through the sky in synchrony. Chimney swifts can be seen most vividly at dusk when large colonies of hundreds, or even thousands of individuals form tornado-like funnels as they descend into the chimneys. Unfortunately, the size of the colonies we see is misleading. Though the numbers may seem remarkable, chimney swift populations have been declining sharply since the 1970's due primarily to habitat loss. Unlike most birds, chimney swifts cannot perch or stand upright, so they require long, hollow spaces that are enclosed to provide safe roosting and nesting sites. Historically, chimney swifts preferred hollow trees. However, as pioneers colonized territory and replaced forests with towns, the species was forced to adapt by using other structures, such as chimneys. In the US, a large-scale shift to alternate heat sources, chimney- capping and the use of fabricated chimneys has drastically impacted their ability to nest during migration. Traditionally, chimneys were lined with clay, which the swifts were able to cling to and make their nests. Newer, prefabricated chimneys are often lined with metal flues Traditionally, chimneys were lined with clay, which the swifts were able to cling to and make their nests. Newer, prefabricated chimneys are often lined with metal flues that make it impossible for them to use. In addition, logging and deforestation may make finding suitable overwintering habitat more challenging than ever. In an effort to sustain the remaining population, conservation groups have designed supplemental housing structures, called "Chimney towers." These towers are designed specifically to provide roosting sites for chimney swifts. Chimney swifts now rely almost entirely on man-made structures like these to survive. However, because this species is remarkably adaptable, even minimal conservation efforts like keeping traditional masonry chimneys uncapped during the summer months can drastically improve their chance of survival.

Please Help!!! I will give brainliest 20 points!! here is the story: he Persistent Gardener It was Jilly's last day in the green house. Summer was coming to an end and so was the growing season. School would be starting next week and the fall plants were well enough along to allow Mrs. T. to manage the greenhouses herself. As Jilly worked the plants for the last time, she tried to focus on the new school year instead of the details of the greenhouse. It had been a hard, hot summer, but Jilly was not ready for it to be over. Jilly moved down the tables, tucking a stray hair behind her ear with a gloved and already dirty hand. She'd repotted the last of the rosemary plants and mixed a new batch of potting soil already. Mrs. T. now had enough potting soil to last her through September. Jilly looked at a couple of maiden-hair ferns that were beginning to yellow in their small pots. She loved their lacey fronds and had grown concerned over the last few days that they needed repotting or a boost of fertilizer. She had also worried that she would continue to find chores that needed doing, plants that needed help, right up until the minute she left today. She hated unfinished things. She hated details not being tended to. The sun had been above the trees and blasting the greenhouse for a good hour now. Jilly listened for the familiar whirr of the automatic vents opening. When the greenhouse reached a certain temperature, the vents would open automatically. The vents would have a cooling effect for an hour or so, and then no amount of breeze would put a dent in the heat. Mrs. T. often claimed Jilly must be part reptile as she was able to work longer in the greenhouse than anyone else. The heat just didn't bother her. In fact, Jilly often looked forward to the warmth of the greenhouse and feeling the heat seep into her bones. It felt good to her, but she understood others who found it hard to breathe in 100 degree temperatures. Jilly heard the greenhouse door bang, and looked up from her ferns to see Mrs. T. walking down the aisle with a tray of young plants. Mums, Jilly supposed, the flowers everyone wants for fall. She had helped Mrs. T. take cuttings and plant the small stems in new pots. They were doing nicely from the look of things. "We will keep these in here for now," said Mrs. T. "They are getting too much rain outside." It had been a rainy couple of days. Jilly knew, as well as anyone, that overwatering could kill potted plants quickly. "Do you remember when I overwatered those mint plants?" Jilly asked Mrs. T. "I used to think no one could kill a mint plant," Mrs. T. said, laughing. "Well I am full of surprises, apparently," Jilly replied. Jilly remembered the sad green plants that just kept looking more and more wilted no matter how much water she gave them. It was a beginner's mistake, and Jilly had been so embarrassed for making it. "That you are," replied Mrs. T. "But I know you learned a lesson you won't ever forget." "Of course. Herbs like their roots damp, not flooded," Jilly answered. "Well that is not the lesson I was thinking of," Mrs. T. said. Jilly wondered for a minute what the lesson could be. She straightened the rows of geraniums in front of her, picking up one or two to check for aphids under the leaves. It had been a summer full of lessons, some especially hard for a girl who thought she knew a lot about plants. She breathed deeply the warm, humid air. She hated the cooped up feeling of air conditioned air, the feeling of being cut off from the sun. She knew school and the library would offer only these uncomfortable feelings and little time to spend in the sun or with plants. She had come to understand this over the summer-her need to be around growing things was huge. "I'm not sure, Mrs. T." she said, "I've learned so much this summer. I couldn't possibly say what you are thinking." "You did learn many lessons, Jilly. You knew so much when you started. You've gone farther than any other assistants I've had. I will miss you." "And I will miss you," Jilly replied. "Thank you for the opportunity and the job." Jilly watched Mrs. T. put the tray of mums down on the center row of tables. Wearing her familiar brown apron, Mrs. T. looked just as she had on Jilly's first day. "My pleasure, of course, dear," Mrs. T. replied. "My hope for you, as for all my assistants over the years, is that you will learn as much about yourself as you do about growing plants." Recalling her thoughts all morning, about what she enjoyed about her summer job, Jilly realized she knew much more than just how to not drown the mint. Here are the questions: I Have a answer circled in I just need to verify That is why one is circled THX!!!

Ocean Plastics
The Perils of Plastic

Marine debris is a common pollution problem in oceans and waterways around the world. Plastic debris constitutes one of the most serious threats to ocean health.

Up to 90 percent of trash floating in the ocean and littering our shores is plastic. Plastics can harm wildlife, damage coastal habitats, impact local economies, and even threaten human health.

How Does Plastic Get into the Ocean?

Even if you don’t live near the coast, your plastic waste can still find its way to the ocean. A plastic water bottle blown into the street can travel down a stormwater sewer, into rivers and streams, and out into the ocean. Since plastic never completely biodegrades, almost every piece of plastic ever produced is still in the environment in some form.

Types of Plastic

Consumer products. Plastic debris comes in many different types and sizes that we buy and use ourselves, including disposable water bottles, plastic grocery bags, fishing net, fishing line, plastic cups and lids, packaging, water balloons, and straws. In the marine environment, these types of debris can harm wildlife when animals mistake plastic for food, or accidentally entangle themselves in plastic littering our shorelines or floating in the ocean.
Microplastics. Plastic does not biodegrade. Instead, once discarded into the environment, it breaks up into smaller and smaller pieces the longer it is exposed to the sun; a process called photodegradation. Any plastic particle less than 5 mm in diameter is categorized as a microplastic. Although small, these plastic pieces can have huge effects on ocean health.
Effects of Plastic

Plastic poses a serious threat to our oceans and waterways. Birds, turtles, fish, and other marine life ingest the plastic pieces, mistaking them for fish eggs, plankton, jellyfish, or other food sources. Every year, hundreds of thousands of sea creatures, both large and small, die from complications relating to plastic debris—they may have a stomach full of plastic that they cannot digest, or they may become fatally entangled in debris.

Harmful chemical pollutants can also attach to plastics and add to the toxicity of plastic debris consumed by animals. Risks to human health from microplastics in seafood are currently being assessed.

What is one of the author’s purposes in writing this piece?

A.) to persuade people to use only certain types of plastics
B.) to educate people about why plastic is the most harmful pollutant

Read the excerpt and answer the question. I cannot but take notice of the wonderful mercy of God to me in those afflictions, in sending me a Bible. One of the Indians that came from Medfield fight, had brought some plunder, came to me, and asked me, if I would have a Bible, he had got one in his basket. I was glad of it, and asked him, whether he thought the Indians would let me read? He answered, yes. So I took the Bible, and in that melancholy time, it came into my mind to read first the 28th chapter of Deuteronomy, which I did, and when I had read it, my dark heart wrought on this manner: that there was no mercy for me, that the blessings were gone, and the curses come in their room, and that I had lost my opportunity. But the Lord helped me still to go on reading till I came to Chap. 30, the seven first verses, where I found, there was mercy promised again, if we would return to Him by repentance; and though we were scattered from one end of the earth to the other, yet the Lord would gather us together, and turn all those curses upon our enemies. I do not desire to live to forget this Scripture, and what comfort it was to me. Which element of Puritan literature is evident in the excerpt?

Well, son, I'll tell you:
Life for me ain't been no crystal stair.
It's had tacks in it,

And boards torn up,
And places with no carpet on the floor—
Bare.
But all the time
I'se been a-climbin' on,
And reachin' landin's,
And turnin' corners,
And sometimes goin' in the dark
Where there ain't been no light.
So, boy, don't you turn back.
Don't you set down on the steps.
'Cause you finds it's kinder hard.
Don't you fall now—
For I'se still goin', honey,
I'se still climbin',
And life for me ain't been no crystal stair.
