奇葩工作大盘点 看有没有你的菜
One of the world's most remote inhabited islands is on the lookout for a new farmer, but with just one village and a population of only 265 people moving there may not be everyone's cup of tea.
最近，世界上最偏僻的小岛之一正忙着招一位农夫；不过，鉴于那地方只有一个村子和区区265的人口，大多数人应该都不乐意搬到那边去。
Tristan da Cunha, which is located in the South Atlantic Ocean between Brazil and South Africa, posted an advert for the role of 'agricultural adviser' on the National Farmers' Union website with the hopes of attracting a candidate who can help advise on development of livestock and agriculture.
小岛名叫特里斯坦-达库尼亚，位于巴西和南非之间的南大西洋海域。最近当地人在他们的全国农民联合会网站上发布了一则招聘广告，希望招一名“农业顾问”，以指导当地人发展养殖业和农业。
According to the posting " the island would benefit from reducing its reliance on imported foodstuffs to become more self sufficient" and needs someone with "knowledge and expertise to assist in increasing the production of fruit and vegetables and the development of livestock".
招聘广告是这么说的：“本岛将减少对进口食品的依赖，提高自给自足水平以惠及民生。目前急需有技术、有能力者积极加入，帮助岛民提高蔬果产量，发展牲畜养殖。”
Unique as the role may sound though it is not the first time an unusual job has come up for grabs, in the past there have been adverts for everything from a chocolate taster to a paintball tester.
虽然听起来新鲜，但这样非同寻常的工作岗位已经不是第一次出现了。要知道，过去也出现过各种各样的招聘广告，包括巧克力品尝员、彩色弹珠测试员等等。
