How to understand the meaning of a sentence?
Here is the sentence: "In these chapters, I examine issues such as the importance of solitude and the necessity of cultivating high-quality leisure to replace the time now spend on mindless device use."
This sentence appears in the third passage in 2023 Chinese National College Entrance Examination. How should I comprehend the use ofthe word "spend" in the part "......to replace the time now spend on mindless device use."? Why not use "spent" as Past Participles Used as Attributes?Thank you for your help.
