Mr Smith, from California, US, won a contest to become the "Chief Funster" for the state of New South Wales (NSW) in Australia.
這名叫做史密斯的僱員來自美國加利福尼亞,他通過競賽成爲了澳大利亞新南威爾士州的“玩樂達人”。

He won the position as part of an event to promote the region and has so far racked up more than 480,000 moments of fun during his stint in the job.
史密斯贏得的職位是新南威爾士州宣傳活動的一部分。任職期間,他創下了48萬個精彩瞬間。

His challenge is to show travellers how exciting NSW is as part of the Funster Experiment, and he must continue until he collects 802,000 fun moments – one for every square kilometre of the state.
作爲整個玩樂試驗項目的一部分,新南威爾士州有衆多刺激、好玩之處,而史密斯的任務就是要向遊客們展示新南威爾士州有多好玩。他必須完成80.2萬個充滿樂趣的精彩瞬間纔算完成工作——每平方公里的土地上就得有一個精彩瞬間。

Since he arrived in Australia in December, Andrew has completed more than half of the challenge, with feats such as: 187 high fives on the Sydney Harbour; mingling with 18,000 Elvii (the plural of Elvis) at the Parkes Elvis Festival; slipping down a 91-metre-long typhoon waterslide; and being chased by a massive pig at the Tamworth Country Music Festival.
史密斯於去年12月到達澳大利亞,那時他已經達成了過半的挑戰內容,他的挑戰項目有:在悉尼海港完成187次擊掌、與18000位貓王粉絲參加在澳大利亞帕克斯舉辦的貓王節、從91米長的颱風形水滑道滑下以及遭遇塔姆沃思鄉村音樂節上豬羣的追趕。

Mr Smith has three months left in Oz, in which he will be packing in yet more fun tasks.
史密斯先生在澳大利亞的時間還有3個月,在此期間,他將完成更多的樂趣展示任務。

He said: "My schedule through to the end of June is jam-packed with great events and travel experiences.
他說:“直到今年6月底,我的日程表上排滿了重頭活動和旅行計劃”。

"There's so much to do and see in NSW, the challenge isn't finding the fun, it's fitting all the fun into just six months."
“新南威爾士州有很多好玩好看的事物,我面臨的挑戰並不是尋找樂趣,而是在六個月內將這些樂趣都展現出來。”
