说到消遣玩乐，顾名思义，就是人在闲暇时间为找乐子而参加的娱乐活动。随着时代的变迁，美国人的消遣玩法儿也越来越潮：从早年的集邮、收集模型飞机，到现今的网上冲浪、玩“愤怒的小鸟”。下面就随小编一起来了解下美国人的十大业余爱好都有哪些。
一、Playing or Listening to Music 享受音乐
If Facebook "likes" are any indication, Americans love music. Of the top 30 most "liked" things, 11 are recording artists, and "music" itself has over
32 million fans (as of the time of publication).
美国人对Facebook的痴迷，也无疑反映了其对音乐的热衷。在全美前30种最受欢迎的大众爱好之中，有11种是关于音乐艺术的，音乐本身就拥有着3200多万的追随者。
二、Social Networking 网络社交
"Social networks and blogs reach nearly 80 percent of active U.S. Internet users and represent the majority of Americans' time online," the Nielsen
Social Media Report says. Where does America spend its time online? In May 2011, Americans spent 53 billion minutes on Facebook, making it the most
popular U.S. website.
在美国，有近80%的网民会频繁关注社交网络及个人博客，这占据了他们大部分的网络时间。美国人究竟热衷于上什么网站呢?据统计，在2012年5月一个月内，美国人在Facebook上花费的时间总计为530亿分钟，这也使得Facebook成为了美国最具人气的热门网站。
三、Computer Games 打电玩
"Currently there are more than half a billion people worldwide playing online games at least an hour a day -- and 183 million in the US alone," writes
Jane McGonigal, author of "Reality is Broken. "The average young person racks up 10,000 hours of gaming by the age of 21. That's almost exactly as much
time as they spend in a classroom during all of middle school and high school if they have perfect attendance. Most astonishingly, 5 million gamers in
the U.S. are spending more than 40 hours a week playing games -- the same as a full-time job!"
《打破现状》一书的作者Jane McGonigal在书中这样写到：“目前全球每天有超过5亿的人平均每天至少玩网游一小时，仅在美国这一数字就已达到了1.83亿人。21岁以下的青年人每天消耗在游戏上的时间累积起来竟有1万小时，这一时间几乎相当于全勤参加初、高中所有课程的时间总和。更令人震惊的是，在美国，有500万的铁杆游戏迷每周玩游戏的时间总计超过40小时，而这一时间也几乎等同于干一份全职工作付出的时间。
四、Reading 阅读
Leisurely reading varied drastically by age group. "Individuals age 75 and over averaged 1.1 hours of reading per weekend day," the ATUS says.
"Conversely, individuals ages 15 to 19 read for an average of 6 minutes per weekend day."
不同年龄层的人群对阅读偏好大相径庭。75岁及以上的老年人每周用于阅读的时间平均在1.1小时左右，而15至19岁的青年人每周用于阅读的时间平均仅为6分钟。
