中國(guó)老百姓休閑方式50年巨變

1980s: Greater variety

　　上世紀(jì)80年代：日益豐富

China’s reform and opening-up policy heralded a more prosperous era. A variety of pastimes emerged -- video halls were ubiquitous and people indulged in Hong Kong and Taiwan movies. Billiards was another favorite pastime and the number of children who cut classes to play table tennis increased.

　　改革開(kāi)放使國(guó)家日益繁盛，人民的休閑娛樂(lè)方式也隨之豐富起來(lái)。那時(shí)候，錄像廳非常常見(jiàn)，放映的多是港臺(tái)電影。打臺(tái)球和乒乓球都是年輕人喜愛(ài)的活動(dòng)。

　　Disco, a totally new form of music to China, came into vogue. Console-based game players introduced such classics as Super Mario and Tetris. The emergence of black-and-white television changed people’s lives.

　　迪斯科幾乎風(fēng)靡了大半個(gè)中國(guó)。任天堂紅白機(jī)的一款款經(jīng)典游戲如超級(jí)瑪麗、俄羅斯方塊等伴隨著孩子們的歡聲笑語(yǔ)。
