  3.Generally speaking, the qualityof life, especial as seen by the individual, is meaningful in terms of thedegree to which these various areas of life are available or providesatisfaction to the individual。

  "especially as seen by theindividual" 是定语从句,其中的关系代词as 作主语,相当于which is,谓语动词中省去了is 。意思是"特别是在个人看来(个人所认为的生活质量)"

  词组 "in terms of" 的意思是"根据,按照;在…方面,就…而言"。

  例如:In terms of education, everyperson should have opportunity.

  就教育来说,每个人都应该有机会。

  " to which these variousareas of life are available or provide satisfaction to the individual" 是定语从句修饰 " the degree" 。

  一般来说,生活质量,特别在个人看来,其意义是由这些不同的生活领域可以供个人享受或者可以使个人满意的程度来衡量的。

  词组" to … degree" 到… 程度

  例如:We're all involved in this matter,but to different degrees.

  我们都与此事有牵连,但程度不一样。

  The number of terrorist attackshas increased to a frightening degree. 恐怖袭击的次数上升到一个令人恐惧的程度。

  As activity carried out as onethinks fit during one's spare time leisure has the following functions: relaxation, recreation and entertainment, and personaldevelopment.

Those with a bettereducation and in professional occupations may tend more to seek recreation andpersonal development (e.g., cultivation of skills and hobbies) in leisure.

  4.As activity carried out as onethinks fit during one's spare time leisure has the following functions:relaxation, recreation and entertainment, and personal development.

  此句中第一个 as 是介词,意思是"作为"。" carried out as one thinks fit duringone's spare time" 是过去分词短语作定语修饰activity 。第二个as 是连词,引导方式状语从句,修饰动词词组 "carried out"。

  休闲作为空闲时进行的自己认为适当的活动,休闲具有下列功能:放松、娱乐、个人发展。

  词组"carry out" 意思是"完成,实现,贯彻,执行"

  5.people who need to exert muchenergy in their work will find relaxation most desirable in leisure.

  exert v.尽全力,努力,施加,发挥,行使,产生影响

  在工作中需要付出很多精力的人,更渴望休闲时放松。

  The specific use of leisure variesfrom individual to individual. Even the same leisure activity may be useddifferently by different individuals. Thus, the following are possible uses oftelevision watching, a popular leisure activity: a change of experience toprovide "escape" from the stress and strain of work; to learn moreabout what is happening in one's environment; to provide an opportunity forunderstanding oneself by comparing other people's life experiences as portrayedin the programmes.

  句中a popular leisure activity:是television watching的同位语,冒号后边的三个并列成分用来解释看电视的不同利用。

  (1)A change of experience to provide "escape" from the stressand strain of work;

  改变感受来"逃避"工作的压力和紧张

  (2)To learn more about what is happening in one's environment.

  更多了解自己周围正在发生的一切

  In an urban society in whichhighly structured, fast-paced and stressful work looms large in life,experiences of a different nature, be it television watching or bird-watching,can lead to a self-renewal and a more "balanced" way of life.

  8.本句中" in which highly structured, fast-pacedand stressful work looms large in life" 是定语从句修饰 " urban society"。 "In a urbansociety …..in life" 是整个句子的状语。主句的主语是experiences,谓语是can lead to ……

  loom v.(危险)逼近,朦胧出现

  短语 loom large 意思是"显得严重(突出),阴影逼近

  " be it television watchingor bird-watching" 是让步状语从句,省去了连接词whether, 系动词be 放到了主语it 之前。不倒装的形式为:

  whether it is television watchingor bird-watching。

  在城市社会中,结构紧密、节奏快捷、充满压力的工作笼罩着人们的生活,某种不同性质的经历,不管是看电视还是看鸟,都能导致自我更新和一种更加"平衡"的生活方式。

  Since leisure is basicallyself-determined, one is able to take to one's interests and preferences and getinvolved in an activity in ways that will bring enjoyment and satisfaction.

  9.Since 引导原因状语从句,that 引导定语从句

  由于休闲基本上是自己决定的事,个人就可以培养自己的兴趣和爱好,并以能为自己带来享乐和满足的方式参与某项活动。

  第三部分:Paras.7--9

  Our likes and dislikes, tastes andpreferences that underlie our choices of such activities as reading books,going to the cinema, camping, or certain culturalpursuits, are all related tosocial contexts and learning experiences. We acquire interests in a variety ofthings and subjects from our families, schools, jobs, and the mass media. Basically,such attitudes amount to a recognition that leisure is an important area oflife and a belief that leisure can and should be put to good use.

  10.Our likes and dislikes, tastesand preferences that underlie our choices of such activities as reading books,going to the cinema, camping, or certain culturalpursuits, are all related tosocial ontexts and learning experiences.

  that引导定语从句修饰our likes and dislikes, tastes andpreferences.

  我们的喜爱与厌恶、品味与偏爱决定我们选择这样的活动,如:读书、看电影、野营、或者某些文化追求,所有这些活动均与社会环境和学习经历有关。

  11.Basically, such attitudesamount to a recognition that leisure is an important area of life and of abelief that leisure can and should be put to good use.

  此句中的两个that 从句都是同位语从句,分别修饰recognitionbelief

  基本上说,上述态度相当于一个共识:休闲是生活的一个重要方面;相当于一个信念:休闲能够并且应该充分利用。

  amount to:达到,到…之多;相当于, 例如:

  My income for that year amounts to$10,000 . 那一年我的收入达10,000美元。

  Your words amount to a refusal. 你的话相当于拒绝

  Professional workers in recreationservices, too, will find that to impartpositiveleisure attitudes to thegeneral public is essential for motivating them to use their leisure increative and satisfying ways. Hence, it can be argued that the people with whomwe come into contact in these various contexts are all likely to have exertedsome influence in shaping our attitudes, interests and even skills relevant tohow we handle leisure. Influence of this kind is a form of leadership.

  12.Professional workers inrecreation services, too, will find that to impartpositiveleisure attitudesto the general public is essential for motivating them to use their leisure increative and satisfying ways

  此句中find 后是that 引导的宾语从句,在宾语从句中,从句的主语是动词不定式 " to impartpositiveleisureattitudes to the general public" , 谓语是系表结构" is essential"。

  "for" 之后的部分是介词短语作essential 的状语,表示目的。

  从事娱乐业的专业工作者也会发现,培养大众积极的休闲态度对促进他们以创造性的,满意的方式利用休闲时间十分必要。

  13.Hence, it can be argued thatthe people with whom we come into contact in these various contexts are alllikely to have exerted some influence in shaping our attitudes, interests andeven skills relevant to how we handle leisure.

  此句的主干结构是主语从句it 作形式主语,真正的主语是 "that the people ….handle leisure"。在主语从句中,主语是the people,"with whom we come into contact in thesevarious contexts" 是其定语。"我们在这些不同环境中接触的人"" come into contactwith" 是固定搭配表示"与… 相联系","与…接触"。 在本句中,介词 "with" 提前到whom 前面。谓语是are all likely to have exertedsome influence"很可能产生某些影响"

  "shaping 后接三个并列宾语,即our attitudes, interests 和skills; relevant to how we handle leisure 是形容词短语作后置定语修饰skills , 其中的how we …是relevant to 的宾语从句。

  因此,可以这么说,我们在不同环境中接触的人都可能对形成我们的态度、兴趣、甚至对如何处理休闲时间的技巧产生某些影响。

  Parents, teachers in schools, workassociates and communicator in or using the mass media are all capable ofarousing our potential interests. For example, the degree to which and the waysin which a school encourages participation in games, sports and culturalpursuit are likely to contribute to the shaping of leisure attitudes on thepart of the students.

  14.Parents, teachers in schools,work associates and communicator in or using the mass media are all capable ofarousing our potential interests.

  父母、学校的老师、工作中的同事、大众媒体的传播工作者都能对我们的兴趣产生潜在的影响。

  arousing 动名词的原形动词为arouse ,意思是"唤醒,唤起,鼓励,引起"

  15.For example, the degree towhich and the ways in which a school encourages participation in games, sportsand culturalpursuit are likely to contribute to the shaping of leisureattitudes on the part of the students.

  此句主语部分中心词是the degree 和the ways, 其后各接一个由介词+ which 引导的定语从句。由于两个定语从句除了介词不同外,其他部分相同,所以第一个定语从句省去了与第二个定语从句相同的部分。

  学校鼓励参加游戏、运动和文化活动的程度和方式可能对形成学生的休闲态度起一定作用。

  第四部分:Paras.10

  Schools usually set as theireducationalobjective the attainment of a balanced development of the person.The more seriously this is sought, the more likely positive attitudes towardsleisure as well as academic work will be encouraged.

  16.Schoolsusually set as their educationalobjective the attainment of a balanceddevelopment of the person.

  句中 "set … asobjective" 把… 看作是目标 。" the attainment of a balanced development of the person; 是set 的宾语。 " as their educationalobjective 是宾语补足语,因为宾语较长,所以后置。

  学校常常把达到个人均衡发展定为它们的教育目标。

  The more seriously this is sought,the more likely positive attitudes towards leisure as well as academic workwill be encouraged.

  该句是 " the more … , themore …." 的句型。 表示"越… 越 …"

  对此追求得越认真,就越可能鼓励人们对待休闲和学术工作持积极态度。
