However, the suffering is kept away from the others. To drink dozens even hundreds of cups of tea is not a pleasant experience, and it is particularly true for a new trainer. Too much Alcohol can be intoxicating and so can too much tea, and tea intoxication is not going to be any easier. But apart from the hard work, being a tea taster is fun. Drinking and tasting tea seems simple, but it is the good knowledge of the Chinese tea culture that underpins the job.1.开头句子："The work of a tea taster, to the layman, must be lighthearted:" "lighthearted" 不太准确，原文强调的是"幸福"而非"轻松愉快"。建议改为："In the eyes of laypeople, the job of a tea taster seems blissful:"2.描述工作内容："Every day is spent on drinking and tasting tea and travelling around, it must be a very happy job."这句话语法有误，包含了两个独立的主句。建议改为："They spend their days drinking, tasting tea, and traveling around the country, which seems like a very enjoyable experience."3.描述困难："To drink dozens even hundreds of cups of tea is not a pleasant experience, and it is particularly true for a new trainer.""new trainer" 应该是 "new trainee"。句子结构可以更流畅。建议改为："Drinking dozens or even hundreds of cups of tea a day is not a pleasant experience, especially for those just starting their training."4.关于醉茶："Too much Alcohol can be intoxicating and so can too much tea, and tea intoxication is not going to be any easier."这句话的逻辑和原文有些偏差。建议改为："Just as one can get drunk on alcohol, one can also get 'tea drunk', and being tea drunk is no easier than being alcohol drunk."5.工作的乐趣："But apart from the hard work, being a tea taster is fun."这句话没有完全表达原文的意思。建议改为："Despite the hardships, they find this profession endlessly fascinating."6.结尾句："Drinking and tasting tea seems simple, but it is the good knowledge of the Chinese tea culture that underpins the job.""good knowledge" 不够准确，原文强调的是"博大精深"。建议改为："Tasting tea and distinguishing its aroma may seem simple, but it is underpinned by the profound and extensive Chinese tea culture."In the eyes of laypeople, the job of a tea taster seems blissful: They spend their days drinking, tasting tea, and traveling around the country, which seems like a very enjoyable experience. However, the suffering behind this job is not well-known. Drinking dozens or even hundreds of cups of tea a day is not a pleasant experience, especially for those just starting their training.Just as one can get drunk on alcohol, one can also get 'tea drunk', and being tea drunk is no easier than being alcohol drunk. Despite the hardships, they find this profession endlessly fascinating. Tasting tea and distinguishing its aroma may seem simple, but it is underpinned by the profound and extensive Chinese tea culture.Rachel，学理工科，爱跳芭蕾，热爱文艺的非典型翻译Rachel，学理工科，爱跳芭蕾，热爱文艺的非典型翻译01 经济学人打卡营 ![]()
