3. Hong Kong's special history
Hong Kong's special status has everything to do with Britain. In the last part of this lesson we are going to find out why.

Slide 20 - Tekstslide

Important plants
The Poppy
Poppies are a national symbol in England. On November 11th people wear them on their clothes to remember the fallen soldiers of World War I.

Poppies, however, can also contain opium. Opium is used to create one of the most dangerous drugs in the world: heroin.
Tea
Tea is used to make hot beverages and it is very popular in England. Tea can't grow in England so it comes from countries like India and China. We might think that is very normal now. But 300 years ago the British had to go through a lot of trouble getting their precious tea to England.
Before we learn about Hong Kong's History we need to learn about these plants.
