Explanation:
Ако изходният текст е този:

[Ethics deals with] things to be sought and things to be avoided, with ways of life and with telos (Telos is the chief aim or end in life).

то преводът би могъл да звучи така:

[Етиката за занимава с] нещата, към които следва да се стремим, както и с онези, които би следвало да избягваме, що се отнася до начина на живот и телоса ("телос" е основната цел или край на живота).

Дефиниция на telos в OED:

telos = "End, purpose, ultimate object or aim."

Исторически примери:

1904 Daily Chron. 5 Aug. 3/2 The triple aim which had formed the telos of every development. 1905 F. Harrison Herbert Spencer Lecture, The Telos of Philosophy is a constructive reorganization of all human knowledge in a synthesis, or correlation of parts. The Telos of human life is the practical and continuous amelioration of the material, social, and moral conditions of the Human Organism—the unity of the Brotherhood of Man on this planet.

Explanation:
Нещата, към които човек трябва да се стреми и нещата, които трябва да избягва; начина на живот и телоса.

Доколкото прочетох в интернет, мисля, че това изречение е определение на това с какво се занимава етиката според Епикур...
