用法讲解

n. (名词)
pastime, hobby, recreation
  • 这三个词的共同意思是“业余爱好”。其区别是：
  • hobby是可数名词,一般指在室内或室外独自进行的活动,通常不剧烈(如集邮、下棋、弹奏乐器等),包括技术很高的活动或简单的动作; pastime指空余时间的娱乐活动,往往不具有什么内在的价值或意义,常指消遣,很多情况下可以和hobby通用; recreation强调改变环境以调节生活节奏或在紧张的工作之后放松一下。例如:
  • His favourable pastime〔hobby〕 is playing chess.他最喜欢的娱乐活动是下棋。
  • Going to the movies is the most popular pastime in the nation.在国内最流行的娱乐方式是看电影。
  • Walking, gardening and reading are quiet forms of recreation.散步、搞园艺、读书是安静的调节生活的方式。
