看答案
recreation
完整句以 A little recreation 作主詞，表示少量休閒活動。recreational 是形容詞，缺少被修飾的名詞；recreationally 是副詞，不能在此構成主詞；recreations 是複數名詞，不能搭配表示少量的 a little，也不符合 helps 的單數一致關係。
同義改寫
The retreat schedule includes an hour of recreation after lunch. → The retreat schedule includes an hour of leisure activities after lunch.
此處 recreation 指休閒活動，可用 leisure activities 改寫，時間與安排不變。
Several colleagues play table tennis for recreation after work. → Several colleagues play table tennis for enjoyment and relaxation after work.
for recreation 說明打桌球是為了娛樂與放鬆；改寫保留相同活動、時間與目的。
