The image is entitled "WRITING TASK 1" and prescribes spending 20 minutes on it, requiring a comparison of two black tea manufacturing processes – traditional and modern methods. The traditional method includes picking 2 top leaves, withering (60% moisture out), rolling (leaves rolled flat and broken), oxidation/fermentation occurring in a controlled environment (enzymes released from leaves), and finally firing/drying (97% moisture out in total). The modern method comprises similar initial steps of picking and withering, but instead of rolling, it involves cutting (leaves cut, torn, and curled) and a quick process with smaller granular pieces created for fermentation, resulting in a stronger and more copper-colored tea. The diagram contains the note, "When you have to describe a process, remember to start by studying the diagram carefully. Don't start writing until you see each stage of the process."
Given the complexity of the image, the above description may not be entirely accurate.

the diagram illustrates two different processes for manufacturing black tea.
Overall, both methods start with picking fresh tea leaves and end with drying the tea. The main difference is that one method rolls the leaves, while the other cuts them into small pieces.
First, workers pick the fresh tea leaves. Only the bud and the top two leaves are used. Then, the leaves are dried with air to remove some water. After that, in the traditional method, the leaves are rolled until they are flat and broken
The modern method, the leaves are cut into small pieces. This makes the process faster. Next, in both methods, the leaves are left in the air to change colour. Finally, they are dried in hot ovens. At the end, the tea has less water and gets its flavour and smell.
