    Professional workers in recreation services, too, will find that to impart positive leisure attitudes to the general public is essential for motivating them to use their leisure in creative and satisfying ways. Hence, it can be argued that the people with whom we come into contact in these various contexts are all likely to have exerted some influence in shaping our attitudes, interests and even skills relevant to how we handle leisure. Influence of this kind is a form of leadership.
    12.Professional workers in recreation services, too, will find that to impart positive leisure attitudes to the general public is essential for motivating them to use their leisure in creative and satisfying ways
    此句中find 后是that 引導(dǎo)的賓語從句,在賓語從句中,從句的主語是動詞不定式 “ to impart positive leisure attitudes to the general public” , 謂語是系表結(jié)構(gòu)“ is essential”。
    “for” 之后的部分是介詞短語作essential 的狀語,表示目的。

    13.Hence, it can be argued that the people with whom we come into contact in these various contexts are all likely to have exerted some influence in shaping our attitudes, interests and even skills relevant to how we handle leisure.
    此句的主干結(jié)構(gòu)是主語從句it 作形式主語,真正的主語是 “that the people …。 handle leisure”。在主語從句中,主語是the people,“with whom we come into contact in these various contexts” 是其定語。“我們在這些不同環(huán)境中接觸的人”“ come into contact with” 是固定搭配表示“與… 相聯(lián)系”,“與…接觸”。 在本句中,介詞 “with” 提前到whom 前面。謂語是are all likely to have exerted some influence“很可能產(chǎn)生某些影響”
    “shaping 后接三個并列賓語,即our attitudes, interests 和skills; relevant to how we handle leisure 是形容詞短語作后置定語修飾skills , 其中的how we …是relevant to 的賓語從句。
    因此,可以這么說,我們在不同環(huán)境中接觸的人都可能對形成我們的態(tài)度、興趣、甚至對如何處理休閑時間的技巧產(chǎn)生某些影響。
    Parents, teachers in schools, work associates and communicator in or using the mass media are all capable of arousing our potential interests. For example, the degree to which and the ways in which a school encourages participation in games, sports and cultural pursuit are likely to contribute to the shaping of leisure attitudes on the part of the students.
