【题目解析】

题目大意：现在人们花在家庭和家里的时间越来越少。为什么会这样？这样对人们和家庭有什么影响？

【难点】题目不难思考论点，大多数同学都会有很多想法。难点在于将这些内容整理归纳起来，形成更清晰的逻辑，而不是罗列论点。同学们需要在想到的众多论点里做取舍，阐述更为重要和普遍的原因及影响。或者也可以区分不同的方面，来让论点更清晰。

此外，同学们也要注意这道题目的问题是讨论原因和影响，而不是常见的原因和解决办法。不细心的话，容易写成后者，造成偏题。

【写作思路】

开头段：现在人们的家庭时间越来越少。这跟工作和生活方式变化息息相关，也给当代的家庭生活带来了诸多困难。

主体第一段：论述主要的原因：1）工作压力增加和时间变长；2）生活娱乐方式的变化；

主体第二段：论述产生的影响：1）不同年龄段的个体面临各种挑战；2）家庭联结的减弱导致问题；

结尾段：总结原因和影响。适当做出呼吁。

【参考范文】

The reduction in family time is evident in today's world, which is not restricted to the working population. This change can be attributed to the increasing demand from work, as well as the shift in people's lifestyles. Although it is sometimes believed to be a necessary sacrifice for economic development, the negative repercussions have raised an alarm.

The main reason why this is happening is that the rising standard of living requires breadwinners to seek jobs far from home. These days, most families need two incomes to get by, providing for household expenditures or raising children. Because of this, people are constantly looking out for better career opportunities, regardless of the location. Another contributing factor is the change in lifestyle. These days, people are exposed to numerous forms of entertainment, driving them away from family life.

This trend is taking its toll on individuals' well-being. For the young and middle-aged, the inadequate family support usually makes them vulnerable to life's challenges. Meanwhile, the elders are left behind to deal with their solitary old age after retirement. Unfortunately, this is likely to be the norm in the coming future. In turn, insufficient communication leads to a lack of mutual understanding and trust between home members, meaning that the sentimental value of a family is easily reduced. This can give rise to various issues concerning different family members, such as poor youth development and marital crisis. The evidence is that the rate of divorce and youth crime is growing at an alarming speed.

To conclude, due to the increasing financial demand and the shift in public lifestyle, families having insufficient quality time has become a universal trend, and it has caused irreversible damages to individuals and their family structure. If modern families yearn for closer family bond, they will have to consider ways to maintain meaningful communication.
