一場茶藝文化體驗、兩個互動遊戲、六大茶類品鑒、一屋子外籍教師與學生滿載而歸……這一連串的數字，勾勒出太阳集团城网址8313812月11日“舌尖上的茶香”外教茶話會的精彩畫面。國際交流與合作處副處長、港澳台事務辦公室副主任黃明珠副教授與全校外籍教師、相關學院師生共聚一堂，在茶香中開啟了一場沉浸式的文化體驗和茶禮儀學習。

One performance, two games, six kinds of classic teas, a room full of teachers and students—all smiling, all sipping. These numbers painted the liveliest snapshot of “A Sip of Chinese Aroma,”the foreign-teacher tea gathering held at Guangzhou College of Commerce on 11 December. Associate Professor Huang Mingzhu (Deputy Director of the International Office & Deputy Director of the Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan Affairs Office) and faculty and students from relevant schools shared an immersive afternoon over steaming cups.

黃明珠首先轉達了周鵬副校長對外教們的關懷與問候。緊接着，她以桌上茶具為引，開啟了一堂簡短而生動的中式禮儀課。“大家看，茶倒七分滿，是中國人留有餘地的體貼；而這一壺茶剛好夠斟一圈茶杯，則體現了分享的圓滿。”她一邊說，一邊示範起了“叩手禮”：面對不同身份的人，叩指的方式也有講究——食指單叩、雙指并叩、或握拳輕叩，分别對應着晚輩、平輩與尊長。這套優雅的“手語”立刻引起了大家的興趣，并在之後的品茶中被頻頻運用，成為現場一道默契而溫馨的風景。“我們希望通過這樣真誠的跨文化場景，讓每一次相聚都成為深化理解中華文化、鞏固友誼的契機。”黃明珠在緻辭中這樣說道。

Huang Mingzhu first conveyed Vice President Zhou Peng’s regards and best wishes to the foreign teachers. Then, using the teaware on the table as her starting point, she gave a short but vivid lesson on Chinese etiquette.  

“Look,” she said,“a cup is filled only seven-tenths full; that is the Chinese way of leaving room for thoughtfulness. And this teapot holds enough to pour one round for everyone—an expression of sharing and completeness.” While speaking, she demonstrated the “finger-knock salute”: the way you tap your fingers changes with the status of the person you face—one finger for a junior, two for a peer, a lightly clenched fist for an elder. This graceful body language immediately fascinated the guests and was practiced again and again as the tea was served, becoming a silent, heart-warming scene of mutual understanding. “We hope that through sincere, cross-cultural moments like this, every gathering becomes an opportunity to deepen appreciation of Chinese culture and to strengthen our friendship,” Huang said in her remarks.

随着活動展開，外教們從靜賞的“觀者”漸成為投入的“品者”。在外事專員黃彥鈞的引導下，大家跟随講解回溯了中國茶文化的曆史脈絡，并通過觀察沖泡前的茶葉、品鑒茶湯、聞香識味，系統了解了中國六大茶類的獨特魅力。Matias Lorieri在品嘗了多款茶後，對熟普情有獨鐘。“很多人說晚上喝了茶會睡不着，我不會，我喜歡在夜晚泡上一壺，它能讓我徹底靜下來。”Matias分享道。而來自英國的Michael Max Winter則在紅茶中品出了熟悉又新奇的風味，“這讓我想起了家鄉，但又完全不同，它是一個非常好的、進入中國茶世界的入口。”

As the session unfolded, the teachers moved from observers to participants. Guided by International Officer Huang Yanjun, they traced the history of Chinese tea culture and, by looking at dry leaves, liquor and smelling aroma, discovered the distinctive charm of China’s six major tea types. Matias Lorieri, after sampling several teas, fell in love with ripe pu-er and Dancong. “Many people say drinking tea at night hard to fall asleep, but I don’t have that troubles.  Ilike brewing a pot at night—it calms me completely,” he said. Michael Max Winter from the U.K. found both familiarity and novelty in black tea: “It reminds me of home, yet it’s entirely different—a perfect doorway into the Chinese tea world.”

随後，外事專員首素豔以一套行雲流水的動作展示了中式茶藝之美。更令人驚喜的是，Pascal Arian Gondokusumo被邀請上前，在手把手的指導下體驗了完整的沖泡過程。溫壺、置茶、注水、出湯……完成後的他難掩興奮：“這太有意思了！我打算也買一套茶具放在家裡，以後可以自己泡。”

Next, International Officer Shou Suyan performed a seamless demonstration of Chinese tea art. The surprise came when Pascal Arian Gondokusumo was invited on stage to brew a full pot under her guidance. Warming the pot, adding leaves, pouring water, decanting—he could hardly hide his excitement afterwards: “That was so much fun! I’m going to buy a tea set for home and brew it myself.”

互動環節則将氣氛推向高潮。“擊鼓傳花”的緊張與“數字選茶”的雅趣相得益彰，中外師生共同參與，踴躍作答。活動尾聲，在場師生以學會的叩手禮相互緻謝，小小的手勢成為整場活動默契的句點。“今天不僅讓外教老師體驗了中國茶文化，也讓我們在服務與交流中收獲了友誼與成長。”一位學生志願者這樣總結道。

Interactive games pushed the atmosphere to its peak. The tension of “pass the flower while the drum beats” and the fun of “pick by number” complemented each other; Chinese and foreign teachers and studentsanswered enthusiastically. At the close, everyone thanked one another with the newly learned finger-tap, a small gesture that became the unspoken punctuation mark of the day. “Today let our foreign teachers experience Chinese tea culture,” one student volunteer summed up, “and let us gain friendship and grow through serving and talking.”

這場茶話會如同一扇打開的窗，讓中外師生共同領略了中國茶文化的韻味，感受了一波來自中式古典的士人雅集；它也更像一座無形的橋，在茶香與笑聲中，悄然拉近了彼此的距離，為太阳集团城网址83138的國際化校園繪上了一抹溫暖而活力的色彩。

The tea gathering liked a open window, allowing Chinese and foreign teachers and students alike to jionly learnthe charm of Chinese tea culture, experiencing a literary gathering from the classical Chinese style. More than that, it served as an invisible bridge, quietly drawing hearts closer throughtea and laughter, adding a warm and vibrant splash of colour to the international campus of Guangzhou College of Commerce.
