4、ole life. In recent years, more and more spare time are given on campus. So, how to make the most use of our spare time is of great value. For that purpose, the present survey is made.1.1 Purpose The survey sets its goal at investigating how do college students use their spare time. And after analyz
5、ing and summarizing the current phenomenon, we can strive for the construction of harmonious campus. 1.2 Subjects In order to make the survey more persuasive, we did the research among students in our university. 130 copies of questionnaires in total were handed out and 110 were collected back which
6、 are effective. Interviewees are from different majors, different grades. 30 of them are freshmen, 50 are sophomore, 30 are junior students, 20 are senior students. In addition, 70 of them are girls and 60 are boys.1.3 Time and PlaceTime: The survey takes about one week, from May 11th to November 17
7、th, 2013. The questionnaires were distributed on May 11th and collected back on May 13th.Place: Qinggong College, Heibei United University1.4 InstrumentQuestionnaires are used to collect data. Considering the questionnaire in English may bring some trouble to the interviewees with different English
8、levels, we adopt the Chinese version instead of the English one. And we survey from different majors and different grades. The interviewees are selected at random to make the data more reliable. For instance, the questionnaires are given to the students studying in classrooms and to those staying in
9、 dormitories. Whats more, students from all grades are made sure to participate in this investigation.2. Data Collection and Analysis On 11th May, we investigated 130 students, among whom 110 returned their questionnaires. The rest did not return or finish for some reasons. To ensure the validity of
10、 the survey, the seven members in our team were divided into three groups of different tasks. Some hand out the questionnaires, go to different places and investigate different students. Some are responsible for the analysis. Others take charge of the writing. Most of the interviewees were willingly
11、 to help us with the survey. They finished the questionnaires carefully. Also, among the questionnaires returned, some questions were not answered, and some were answered casually, which brought us some trouble when we did the data collection. In general, most of the information we collected was use
12、ful and accurate.2.1 Time Analysis According to Question 2 and 4, we get a result as follows (see Figure 1).Figure 1 GradeTimeFreshmanSophomoreJuniorSeniorMore than 8 hours per day913076-8 hours per day182816103-5 hours per day26221-2 hours per day1321Total30503020 Result: As it can be seen from Fig
13、ure 1, most students have lots of spare time. Most of them have 6-8 hours for one day. The freshman and sophomore even have more. And junior students have less.Reasons: 1) The freshmen have more spare time because they have less subjects and more students often pay more attention to the games and pa
14、rt-time jobs, instead of study. 2) The sophomore have not begun to have their professional courses and their courses are less. 3) The junior students need a lot of time for their courses. Moreover, most of them want spending more time studying .2.2 Objective Analysis Questions 10, 11, 12, 13 and 14
15、are designed to know the college students views and choices on spare time. 2.2.1 Study Aspect AnalysisAccording to Questions 10 and 13, we get a result as followsFigure 2Result:There are 25% of the students who always keep studying, their learning time take on more than 80% of their spare time. Beca
16、use they think learning is always important. There are 55% of the students whose learning time take on about 50%80% of their spare time. They think learning is important, but the other aspects are also important, for example, entertainment and part-time jobs.There are 16% of the students whose learn
17、ing time take on about 20%50% of their spare time. This kind of students think learning is not very important. So they dont spend more time in studying.There are only 4% of the students who do little studying, their learning time take on merely less than 12% of their spare time. In their view, learn
18、ing is not important at all. They dont think they can get knowledge in the university. So they spend time in making money or amusement.2.2.2 Life Aspect AnalysisThe students have different arrangements in their spare time. We can gain the following Figure which is based on the questions 12 and 14.Fi
19、gure3Result: Students spend about 25% of their time in sleeping, about 22% in surfing the internet, almost 21% in studying, about 12% in dating, about 10% in exercising, and only 5% in activities.Reasons: In students daily life, sleeping occupies most of the time, playing computers also takes on a b
20、ig part, but proportion of studying is not more than the first two. Because in their opinions, university life is boring. They dont have pressure like in high school. They also think its not necessary to get knowledge in university, so they spend most time in sleeping and playing computers. Only 10%
21、 of the students keep exercising, so the way of some students life in university is lazy and unhealthy.2.2.3 Physical Activity Frequency AnalysisQuestion 12 is designed to know about the college students frequency of physical activity in a week.Figure 4Result:About 59% of the students have exercises
22、 once or twice a week. About 20% of the students have exercises 2-5 times a week. Students who hardly have exercises occupy about 15% in university. Only 6% of the students keep exercises more 5 times a week.Reasons: Only a small part of students have exercise regularly, and most of the students don
23、t have exercise habits, people who choose to stay in dormitory are growing. 2.3 Subjective AnalysisBased on Question 15 and 16, we get Figure 5 below.Figure 5Result: About 35% of the students have academic lectures in their spare time, about 52% of the students have fun games, and only about 13% of
24、the students have recreational activities in their spare time.Reasons: Generally speaking, students are not willing to communicate with strangers. Different people have different advantages, so students should take activities based on their interest. We hope students can learn something useful in sp
25、are time, and promote various social skills and practical ability.2.4 Satisfaction of Arranging Spare Time According to the statistics based on Questions 17 and 18, we can learn their satisfaction of arranging spare time. Figure 6Result: There are 25% of the students feel very satisfied. In their op
26、inions, they should learn to improve themselves. There are 33.3% of the students feel more satisfied. According to their plans and arrangement work, they can exercise their ability of various aspects. There are 33.2% of the students dont feel satisfied .They think they should participate in practice

28、ollege students have the desire to make their college life to be colorful and meaningful. Sometimes they just dont know how to realize it. On the other hand, there are still a majority of students surfing the Internet for killing time. And the time they use for exercising and activities is less now.
