特别广播英语第 95 课：Current Attitudes toward Physical Fitness
现时人们对待健康的种种态度-1

Recently we were told by a student that setting aside time for improving his physical fitness would be a total misuse of his working hours. 最近，有个学生告诉我说，分出一部分时间去提高身体健康的水平，纯粹是挤占了他的学习时间。

He assured us that he would be no better served by a fitness program than by learning to play bridge. 他想让我相信，假如让他参加健身培训班和让他学打桥牌同样都是对他没有好处的。

College and his preparation for a career were his only priorities. 他把上大学和准备干一番事业摆在了比一切都重要的位置。

This student has seen being physically fit as an end rather than the means we know it to be. 另一位学生把有个健康的身体看作是最终目标，而不像我们那样把身体健康当作工作学习的一种手段或工具。

His opinion is one of the many feelings, pro or con, that people hold about their personal involvement in a physical fitness program. 许多参加健身培训班的人都有着各种不同的感受，有的说好有的说坏，这位学生的意见是各种感受之一。

Many people, including college students of all ages, spend little time in pursuit of physical fitness. 很多人，包括各种年龄的大学生，几乎不花时间去追求身体健康。

Certainly some of these individuals may have physical limitations that make activity extremely difficult, and others are engaged in time-consuming activities that until finished do not permit opportunities for recreation. 当然，这些人中有些因为受到生理上的限制以致参加活动极为困难，还有些人从事着耗费时间的事务活动，以致只能等到忙完了这些事务才有可能去参加消遣活动锻炼锻炼。

However, what about the majority who could do much more but do so little? Does one of the following statements sound like you? 但是，大多数人，本来可以多参加些锻炼活动，可是实际上却参加得很少。这些人又怎么样呢？下面这些论调中有哪一种听起来像是你说的呢？
