    要有私人闲空个人时间

    (Explanation:空间 space, 时间 time, I've go though all the essay, finger out that you must mean "time". and I think use "个人" is better than "私人". "个人", 强调"独立",“私人”强调“隐私”,我想你主要是想要“自己的”时间,而且跟“隐私”无关,there's no business with privacy,  所以用“个人”更好。)


    虽然现在人们的生活普遍太忙,但是在我看来,有私人闲空(时间?)个人时间非常重要。
    (Explanation:前面一句勉强可以,但加上“人们”作为主语更流畅一些,或者完全改写,比如“现在人们的生活节奏普遍较快”。)


    在没有空的情况下你还能可以午休时听音乐或阅读。当时我每天工作时,我习惯一边吃饭,一边听音乐或看书。

    (Explanation:前一句,doesn't make sense. "还能" means anyway, whatever, regardless, when you short of time, you still can reading & listening...no ! Since you run out of time, you can/need only reading & Listening music during the very short rest hours。

    后一句,“当时我每天工作”,confused me. cause it could be a past experience, maybe there's a period one year ago, “当时" I do stuff that way, but not now. The other explanation is "Now, When I work in my office, I  reading when having lunch", 这样就应该改成"当我每天工作时" )

    周末时不要整周末收拾房间做饭;要找到时间跟好友见面,去有意思的地方,花几个小时做满足自己的爱好:跳舞,画画儿或别的。

    (Explanation:"做" does not match "爱好”, we say "满足自己的爱好“instead of "做爱好", or "做自己爱做的事情". 

    PS: "做自己爱做的事情" is tricky, cause it can be abbreviated as "做爱", which meas "having sex".)


    假期的时候不要浪费时间在家里睡着觉,不要被电视剧吸引,要去旅游!在旅游上每个人有很多机会选择:没有很多钱的话,就是可以去在本省省内的另外一个城市玩。

    (Explanation: "睡觉”, 是一个noun, "睡着", fall into sleep, 表示过程,from awake status transfer to sleeping status.

    “机会”,opportunity, chance, "选择", choice , without money, we choose go some place nearby, with a lot of money, we travel around the world, It's choice.

    "在本省“,更合适的说法是"省内",或者去掉"在"也可以。)


    如果你尽你所能找到时间做喜欢的事情,你会觉得你的生活较丰富很丰富。

    (Explanation: ”较丰富“,其实也可以,but "很丰富" is better. 也可以用”丰富多彩“,much literature way, it's a Chinese slang.)

    @Margarita 谢谢@Anita Yan的补充.


    关于广州早茶:

    1. You can find it everywhere。到处都是,大大小小,还包括高级酒店,都会有早茶;

    2. 营业时间一般从早上持续到中午12:00,意思是,所有的地方,这段时间都是为早茶服务的;

    3.从顾客的角度来讲,你可以点一壶茶,一直喝一整个上午,而且确实很多人这么干,说明这是很流行的,而且价格很便宜,大概2美金就可以了;

    4.广州的早茶是有特定的桌子、茶具、配套的点心,收费方式,你会觉得它很特别,区别于一般的简单的喝茶,类似为一个仪式,你会很享受它的;

    5. 有很多大酒店以早茶出名;

    6. 哪怕是在饭店吃午饭、晚饭,一般也会点上一壶茶;


    能喝一上午茶的顾客,他们可能是本地的有钱人,或者是老人家,或者是在那里谈生意,或者是旅客,反正,每天都有很多的人去喝早茶,这是一种生活方式。


    功夫茶,一般是指泡铁观音(一种茶),主要是泡茶的时候,有特定的程序和表演,类似于中国功夫(kongfu),所以叫它功夫茶;

    扩展开来,就是“茶道”,指泡茶的特定的器具、仪式等。


    还有就是生产茶业居多的福建省,更是流行,茶对他们来说,就像水,像空气,所有人都离不开它;

    云南普饵(一种茶),可以作为收藏品、资产,用于投机,炒作到100,000美金;

    中国的古代皇帝喝茶,有专门为皇室制作茶叶、茶具的机构,流传到今天,这些曾经的贡品都是天价;

    有很多关于茶的故事、小说,人们为了茶丢掉性命,惊动皇帝;


    年轻人喝茶的问题,首先还是比较普遍的,主要体现在公司和家庭,会准备茶,比较潮流的年轻人会选择咖啡。
    但就像我前面说的,“文化”、“传统”,不是由年轻人定义的,而是由掌握权力、资本的人定义的。
    Powerful People drink tea, not coffee. I spell correctly this time, thank you : )

        Wish I can help you.

    Brief Answer:

    一、基本上我每天都喝茶

    二、茶叶专卖店,茶庄,茶城... 

    三、传统的茶馆还是受欢迎的,不过中国太大,各地不一样,我稍后会解释

    四、绿茶 or 铁观音


    Details:

    中国是一个茶文化非常浓厚的地方,这表现在:

    1. 所有公司都会准备茶叶免费提供给员工喝

    Free tea supplied in all companies.

    2.出租车司机都会有一个大茶杯,每天带在车上喝茶

    Every taxi driver always has a special big bottle with tea, that's how they drink water. 

    3.广东人每天上午都要喝早茶,吃点心,并且从早晨一直持续到中午

    Most people from GuangDong province(south China) have tea with dessert as breakfast, the interesting part is it will last about 4 or 5 hours, 7:00 am ~ 12:00 am .

    4.在福建一个老人家一年可以喝掉上百斤的铁观音(一种茶)

    More than 50 kg tea will be consumed per year for a single old man in FuJian Province(south China).


    咖啡是从国外传入中国的,咖啡比较时尚,主要在年轻人中比较流行:

    1. 一般公司也会准备咖啡,但其实只是外企员工喝的比较多

    ... 写不下去了 : )


    我能想到的喝咖啡的确实大部分是年轻人,外企员工,大城市...

    在中国,“文化”是由官僚引导的,“时尚”是年轻人引导的。

    中国的官员,肯定都喝茶,在他们看来,茶代表着文化、传统 、高雅、品味...

    Tea is popular in the government, and China is a bureaucratic country, you know what I am talking about.

    中国发展了喝茶的理论,包括喝茶的意义、传说、道具、程序等

    喝茶需要一整套茶具,包括茶壶、茶杯、茶盘、储茶罐等

    喝茶的程序,有七、八个步骤,要放音乐,要点檀香

    有的茶具价值连城,为争夺它们甚至会引发命案,而这些都在中国的电影电视中有提及.

    The instrument for tea is very expensive, like more than 1 billion CNY, some one will die for it mentioned by history or movies.

    大家互相赠送高级茶叶作为礼品,而没人送咖啡,哪怕是很贵的咖啡.

    High - Class Tea is a good gift, especially for governors, nobody send cafe as a gift cause it is considered as  impolite.

    I know what your talking about, cause I am a Chinese : )

    Vocabulary, Grammar...etc is important for passing the exam like TOEIC.

    But there's different kind of study strategy, learn & remember the grammar is a "Serious" one as you mentioned, practice a lot is another way to achieve the goal.

    I bet you won't think about the grammar when your speak your mother language - Chinese for you, isn't it ?

    Actually we can remember all the sentences, not vocabulary, not grammar, but sentences, because we use them every day every where.

    Keep going with your TOEIC test.

    by the way, My name is wenfeiwang, I am struggling with my English now. maybe we can be friends.

    My skype account is: [email protected]

    Wish your a good day!
