What is a "hobby?" By definition, a hobby is an activity that we do for pleasure during our leisure time. Over the years, America's hobbies have evolved -- where we once collected stamps and model planes, we're now surfing the Internet and playing "Angry Birds." To get a better idea of how Americans spend their leisure time in the 21st century, we looked into the Bureau of Labor Statistics' American Time Use Survey, or ATUS。
说到消遣玩乐,顾名思义,就是人在闲暇时间为找乐子而参加的娱乐活动。随着时代的变迁,美国人的消遣玩法儿也越来越潮:从早年的集邮、收集模型飞机,到现今的网上冲浪、玩“愤怒的小鸟”。为了更好地了解21世纪的美国人究竟是如何打发时间的,我们专程调阅了美国劳工统计局“美国人时间安排调查”的报告。
