Read the passage
given below and answer the questions based on your understanding of the passage.
(Question Nos. 46 — 50)
The idea and
phrase "serious leisure' comes from Stebbins' interviewees, who used the
word "serious" to underline the extent of their passion for a
favourite leisure activity. In this case, the term embodies positive qualities
such as importance and sincerity, rather than negative traits such as gravity
or anxiety. Whereas casual leisure supplies pleasure, and project-base leisure
delivers a temporary reward, serious leisure generates deep and enduring
sensations of fulfillment.
There are six
defining characteristics to all serious leisure. First, there is the occasional
need to persevere, as when mountain climbers push through exhaustion to reach a
peak. Second, is that of finding a leisure career in the activity, with turning
points and a sense of advancement. Third, serious leisure takes significant
personal effort based on specially acquired knowledge, training, experience, or
skill. In this quality, serious leisure is the opposite of its casual
counterpart, which requires no expertise. Fourth, there are eight durable
benefits or outcomes to serious leisure: self-actualization, self-enrichment,
self-expression, regeneration or renewal of self, feelings of accomplishment,
enhancement of self-image, social interaction and belongingness, and lasting physical
products of the activity. Fifth, serious leisure participants tend to identify
strongly with their chosen pursuits, and may be quick to assert their
affiliation. Sixth, a unique ethos, or spirit of the community, exists around
each serious leisure activity.
There are three
main types of serious leisure: amateurism, volunteering, and hobbies. Amateurs
operate in the fields of art, science, sport, and entertainment.
