26、r “in real life”. The sunglasses use a special kind of polarized lens(偏光镜片)that blocks the light.

33、e time on leisure activities in 2021 compared with the period before the novel coronavirus hit, according to a recent report by the China Tourism Academy. The academy said that urban residents leisure time was closely related to their work. They spent more time on leisure activities on weekends in 2

34、021, about 4. 4hours a day, compared with an average of 3.82 hours a day on workdays. It said that urban residents leisure time increased both at weekends and during holidays in 2021 when compared with 2019. Daily weekend leisure time increased by 0.91 of an hour and that during holidays by 0.64 of

35、an hour. The time that people in rural areas spent enjoying leisure activities rose nearly 39 percent compared with 2019, increasing to 4.36 hours a day from 3.14 hours before the COVID-19 pandemic struck. Shopping at physical stores remained the most popular leisure activity for both urban resident

36、s and people in the countryside, followed by activities like facial treatments, hairdressing and manicures(修指甲). “Shopping is my favorite way to give vent to my negative emotions and pressure, also for leisure,” said Li Lingli, a 28-year-old financial analyst in Beijing. She said she had quite a hea

37、vy workload on workdays and also on weekends, meaning she didnt have much time to enjoy other leisure activities, especially outdoor ones like camping or hiking. The report said it will be difficult to increase peoples leisure time in the future due to the large amount of time they spend working and

38、 looking after children. A recent survey by the academy shows that 50 percent of urban residents worked over eight hours a day and 15 percent worked over 10 hours a day. “Heavy workload is truly a big problem,” Li said. “For me, as long as I dont message or email back my clients, its my leisure time

43、holidays, report says五、七选五Most young people enjoy some form of physical activity. It may be walking, cycling, or swimming, or in winter, skating or skiing. _36_ It may be mountaineering. Those who have a passion for climbing high and difficult mountains are often looked upon with astonishment. Why a

44、re men and women willing to suffer cold and hardship, and to take risks on high mountains? This astonishment is caused probably by the difference between mountaineering and other forms of activity from which men get their relaxation. Mountaineering is a sport but not a game. There are no man-made ru

45、les, as there are for such games as golf and football. There are, of course, rules of a different kind which it would be dangerous to ignore, but it is this freedom from man-made rules that makes mountaineering attractive to many people. _37_If we compare mountaineering with other more familiar spor

46、ts, we might think that one big difference is that mountaineering is not a “team game”. _38_ There are, it is true, no “matches” between “teams of climbers, but when climbers are on a rock face linked by a rope on which their lives may depend, there is obviously teamwork. The mountain climber knows

47、that he may have to fight forces that are stronger and more powerful than man. _39_ His sport requires high mental and physical qualities. A mountain climber continues to improve skills year after year. A skier is probably past his best by the age of thirty, and most international tennis champions are in their early twenties. _40_ They may need more time than younger men, but they probably climb with more skills and less waste of effort, and they certainly experience equal enjoyment.AWe should be mistaken in this.BHe has to fight the forces of nature.CTeams compete against
