9 This man works in Malaysia. Hes picking the leaves from these long rows of plants. The leaves will be sold to factories, where other workers will dry and sort them. Then theyll put the dried leaves into boxes. © eycool – Fotolia.com

10 You can put these leaves – often inside little bags – into hot water to make a very popular drink. Some people have it with milk and sugar. What do you think it is? Does anyone in your family drink tea? © 2008 Jupiterimages Corporation

11 This man works in Brazil. There are lots of fields like this in Brazil. The plants can measure up to six metres! The man is cutting down the stalks. These stalks, or canes, will be washed, chopped, shredded, mixed with water and crushed to release a juice.

12 This juice is used to make a very, very sweet food. People add it to other foods to make them taste better. What do you think it is? What other foods contain sugar? © Ljupco Smokovski – Fotolia.com

15 This man is working up a tree in Sri Lanka! Hes climbing this palm tree to reach the fruit at the top of it. Palm trees can sometimes grow to be over 20 metres tall. It doesnt look easy, does it? © Yogeetha Aenakshi – Fotolia.com
