Long essay question: (30 points) A .休閑和炫耀性消費(fèi)之間的關(guān)系。休閑之事古已有之。一般意義上的休閑是指兩個(gè)方面：一是解除上的，恢復(fù)生理的；二是獲得精神上的，成為心靈的驛站。她是完成之后的時(shí)間，是人的生命狀態(tài)的一種形式。而對(duì)于人之生命的意義來(lái)說(shuō)，她是一種精神的態(tài)度，并在人類社會(huì)進(jìn)步的歷史進(jìn)程中終扮演著重要的角色。 中國(guó)古人對(duì)休閑內(nèi)容也是很講究的，并賦予很濃厚的文化內(nèi)

17、涵，形成了獨(dú)具一格的文化。如收藏字畫(huà)，篆刻臨帖，弈棋鼓琴，栽花養(yǎng)魚(yú)等，均列為一種休閑生活的方式。其中所花去的錢(qián)是指在閑暇時(shí)間進(jìn)行的休閑產(chǎn)品（物質(zhì)的和精神的）消費(fèi)活動(dòng)。 休閑消費(fèi)是老百姓生活質(zhì)量提高的一個(gè)重要標(biāo)志，同時(shí)也極富夸示價(jià)值，是有閑有錢(qián)的雙重表述。此外，高品位的休閑娛樂(lè)，例如對(duì)高雅藝術(shù)的鑒賞，也是品位素養(yǎng)的一種彰顯，可以為消費(fèi)者帶來(lái)榮耀。當(dāng)前頗為流行的出國(guó)旅游、古玩鑒賞、探險(xiǎn)越野、藝術(shù)欣賞等休閑娛樂(lè)，都有很強(qiáng)的夸示成分在里邊。當(dāng)然，這種夸示可能是消費(fèi)者的有意為之，也有可能是無(wú)心插柳。而炫耀性消費(fèi)就有些不同了，所謂炫耀性消費(fèi)，指的是富裕的上層階級(jí)通過(guò)對(duì)物品的超出實(shí)用和生存所必需的浪費(fèi)性、奢

18、侈性和，向他人炫耀和展示自己的金錢(qián)財(cái)力和，以及這種地位所帶來(lái)的榮耀、聲望和名譽(yù)。其實(shí)休閑與炫耀性消費(fèi)的概念有時(shí)候有些相近，因?yàn)樵诟蝗说男蓍e生活中，他們的消費(fèi)很可能就是屬于炫耀性消費(fèi)，而普通人即使想要進(jìn)行炫耀性消費(fèi)也是無(wú)法進(jìn)行的，因?yàn)殄X(qián)不夠，所以炫耀性消費(fèi)應(yīng)該包含于休閑里面，關(guān)系很相近。只是用錢(qián)的多少來(lái)衡量而已。當(dāng)人們提到炫耀性消費(fèi)，第一個(gè)想到的是炫耀，與此相關(guān)的是大把的花錢(qián)。我們以為，炫耀性消費(fèi)應(yīng)當(dāng)具有一些基本的標(biāo)準(zhǔn)，而這個(gè)標(biāo)準(zhǔn)的主要意義不存在于消費(fèi)所產(chǎn)生的金額。第一個(gè)標(biāo)準(zhǔn)，是炫耀性消費(fèi)應(yīng)當(dāng)是純粹的消費(fèi)，因此我們需要鑒別一些貌似消費(fèi)而實(shí)際上是投資的“消費(fèi)”：譬如千金宴請(qǐng)客戶，其目的是為了賺更多

19、的錢(qián)，消費(fèi)只是一個(gè)幌子，一種公關(guān)手段。第二個(gè)標(biāo)準(zhǔn)，是炫耀性消費(fèi)的心靈依附性。如果沒(méi)有心靈上對(duì)消費(fèi)所產(chǎn)生的高人一等的依附、如果消費(fèi)的目的不是為了“顯擺”，就不是炫耀性消費(fèi)，譬如有的富人一點(diǎn)小毛病也要到大醫(yī)院開(kāi)高價(jià)藥，這種消費(fèi)只是人們對(duì)于安全和權(quán)威的莫名信任和歸托而已?，F(xiàn)代人的休閑娛樂(lè)方式和內(nèi)容，可謂花樣疊出，五彩繽紛。唱愈狂，跳愈瘋，玩更邪，還有腳綁橡皮筋，從數(shù)十米高處頭朝下往水里跳的，玩起來(lái)著實(shí)驚心動(dòng)魄。大凡時(shí)尚的休閑娛樂(lè)，都要大把從兜里掏銀子，卡拉OK、家庭影院、健美器械、保齡球、高爾夫、按摩桑拿、跑馬賽狗，都不是一文錢(qián)兩文錢(qián)可以玩的。人之娛樂(lè)，在下以為頂要緊的是追求心境淡泊雅悅，陶冶閑適的

20、情趣，以求修身養(yǎng)性?；ㄥX(qián)買(mǎi)來(lái)的娛樂(lè)，畢竟虛浮和短暫，況且工薪族老百姓，能衣溫食飽，居安業(yè)樂(lè)，如此便為天大的好生活了，犯不著再花冤枉錢(qián)，去買(mǎi)那些翻天覆地，死去活來(lái)的時(shí)髦娛樂(lè)。我們應(yīng)該冷靜思考和研究解決大眾化旅游休閑消費(fèi)需求的不斷增長(zhǎng)同社會(huì)供應(yīng)不相適應(yīng)的矛盾，切不可把旅游規(guī)劃休閑打造成“強(qiáng)勢(shì)集團(tuán)”的奢侈品，而忽略了平民對(duì)休閑生活的深切渴望。因?yàn)槿暧?14天節(jié)假日的工薪階層和既“有閑”又“有錢(qián)”的富裕階層是我國(guó)現(xiàn)階段經(jīng)濟(jì)生活中旅游規(guī)劃休閑消費(fèi)的兩個(gè)重要群體。很多人在脫離物質(zhì)休閑之后便難覓新徑，如何開(kāi)拓自己精神領(lǐng)域的休閑？其實(shí)，我們寄希望社會(huì)在培育健康休閑環(huán)境的同時(shí)，應(yīng)該更多地責(zé)問(wèn)自己，因?yàn)橛泻芏嗟?/p>

21、方式可供選擇。比如，好朋友不常見(jiàn)面也會(huì)陌生，為什么不把浪費(fèi)在昏天黑地打麻將和看肥皂劇上的時(shí)間用來(lái)和老朋友談心？這樣花的錢(qián)也少了，同時(shí)也就休閑了。我們不用必須去花很多錢(qián)去玩，以為那樣就會(huì)開(kāi)心，其實(shí)不然，那只是心態(tài)上的浮夸而已，要區(qū)分我們想得到的是什么，休閑得到快樂(lè)，炫耀性消費(fèi)得到面子?？次覀兿胍裁戳?。B. Leisure is to relax, do not need deliberately to do some stimulating activities or to prepare many of the early work. it is literally of play, loo

26、action with friends, and, most importantly, contemplation. Aristotle was a philosopher of happiness and a philosopher of leisure. Happiness can appear only in leisure.

28、rpose. According to Aristotle, play does not produce happiness but a feeling of relief from tension and physical effort. For Aristotle “l(fā)eisure is a different matter”.

29、who have leisure. Most of these holidays were tied to the religious calendar (religious vs. secular). Each of them had its specific customs decorating churches, horse parades, processions, wrestling, boxing, climbing of a greased pole, races, circuses, clowns, puppet shows, dances etc. Holidays were also related o annual fairs, the traditional place for marketing goods.
