As the social civilization develops at a fast speed, the new century has brought us with an unprecedented variety of recreational activities ranging from traditional outdoor activities such as playing ball games to all kinds of other indoor activities. People can do sports, singing karaoke, go dancing, go to the movies, play video games or online games, or surf the Internet.
隨着社會文明的發展速度比較快，新世紀給我們帶來了與從傳統的户外活動如打球到其他各種室內活動空前的各種娛樂活動。人們可以做運動，唱歌，跳舞唱歌，看電影，玩遊戲或在線遊戲，或上網衝浪。
On one hand, recreational activities are good to people’s health, both physically and mentally. Sports and dancing can keep people fit. Singing karaoke will bring more excitement and enrich people’s life. Playing video games can satisfy people’s imagination and develop people’s intelligence. Surfing the Internet can bring people plenty of information and knowledge. What’s more, some recreational activities, such as going to the cinema or theatre, playing volleyballs in a team will be inductive to strengthen the affection of the family.
一方面，娛樂活動對人們的健康有益，包括身體上和精神上的。體育和跳舞可以使人健康。唱卡拉OK將帶來更多的刺激和豐富人們的生活。玩遊戲可以滿足人們的想象和開發人的智力。上網能給人們帶來的信息和知識豐富。更重要的是，一些娛樂活動，比如去電影院或劇院，在一隊打排球將感應加強對家庭的影響。
On the other hand, some recreational activities, such as playing mahjong and poker, might be time-consuming and harmful if people are addicted. Spending too much time and money on these activities will seriously influence people’s normal lives. There are also some on-line games which is great appeal to the young generation. Those who are indulged in the games may waste too much time to study and exercise.
另一方面，一些娛樂活動，如打麻將和撲克，如果人是上癮的是耗時的和有害的。花太多的時間和金錢在這些活動會嚴重影響人們的正常生活。也有一些在線遊戲的是年輕一代的巨大的吸引力。那些沉迷於遊戲可能浪費太多的.時間來學習和鍛鍊。
As far as I am concerned, people should take part in meaningful recreational activities and try to benefit more from recreational activities. Only in this way, can they become more energetic and creative when they work and study. When it comes to those addictive, and less meaningful activities, I think to stay away from them is a wise decision.
在我看來，人們應該參加有意義的休閒活動，試圖從娛樂活動更多的利益。只有這樣，他們才能變得更有活力和創意時，他們的工作和學習。當談到那些上癮的，少的有意義的活動，我想遠離他們是一個明智的決定。
