1、【汉译英】这些女士有些迷惑不解。谢丽尔.斯潘格勒，维丽瑞尔.波兰达达姆森，和苏珊.帕克特是大学招生工作人员。在肯 塔基州的弗罗伦斯培训时，她们走进了当地一家叫做强.吉瓦 的烧烤酒吧去吃饭。然而，他们看到的并不是从厨房端出来 抹好了酱的羊肉，而是生肉和蔬菜。服务员给她们端上来的 餐具也不是刀和叉，而是剪子、筷子和钳子。餐桌上没有闪 烁的烛光，有的只是一桶在烧烤架上嘶嘶作响的燃烧着的木 炭。强.吉瓦经营的是烤肉韩式自助烤肉。我在餐馆里 工作了 20年，从来不知道还有这样的餐馆。，来自田纳 西州洛克思尔的斯潘格勒好奇地对她的朋友说道。由于就餐的客人就是厨师的餐馆数量在不断增加，秘密 也就随之而被公开
