Read the excerpt from "early victorian tea set.” but a loving, tranquil cup of tea has a violent hinterland. when all tea came into europe from china, the british east india company traded opium for silver and used that silver to buy tea. the trade was so important that it brought the two countries to war. the first of the conflicts, which we still refer to as the opium wars – they were in fact just as much about tea – broke out more or less as our teapot was leaving the wedgwood factory. partly because of these difficulties with china, in the 1830s the british set up plantations in the area around calcutta and indian tea was exempted from import duty to encourage demand. what is the author’s viewpoint in this excerpt?

either a donut or a sphere or a pancake or a flat sphere. it depends on where the vertical line is.

if the line goes through the center of the circle and is perpendicular to a diameter containing the center, then you get a flat circle.

if the line and the diameter of a the circle meet in the center of the diameter and at an angle, you get a pancake.

if the line is on the circumference of the circle and is at right angles   to the circle you get a ring.

if the line contains the diameter, you get a sphere.

the the line is parallel to the diameter and touches the circumference, you get a donut.
