【参考范文】

Nowadays, residents in urban areas find it challenging to participate in physical activities. This essay will initially explain why this is happening, followed by some strategies to tackle this issue. 

 There are primarily two factors behind why people do not do sufficient physical exercise. To begin with, they are busy with their work commitments. To make more money and gain promotion, employees always work extra hours, feeling exhausted and lacking the energy to exercise. Even on weekends and holidays, they prefer something that helps them unwind. Additionally, free sports equipment in the neighbourhood cannot satisfy residents’ demands. The land in cities is mainly occupied by commercial buildings and residential blocks, leaving limited space for sports facilities to which many people can have no access. Also, they are reluctant to pay for a membership to a gym and thus, cannot have enough exercise. 

To resolve this problem, several approaches can be adopted. The first one is that employers ought to provide their employees with a better work-life balance. In other words, if individuals do not work long hours, they are more likely to spare some time to do sports on a regular basis, instead of focusing merely on their work tasks, which is beneficial to both their physical and psychological health. Another important point to consider is that the government should allocate a proportion of the budget to the construction of sports facilities in the local community. This will considerably encourage more residents to be willing to take part in some sports activities as it makes it free for them to exercise as well as more convenient.  

In conclusion, being occupied by work and a lack of exercise equipment are the two major reasons why city dwellers are unable to do enough physical activities. However, if people can enjoy a balance between work and life, and sufficient exercise facilities can be made available near where they live, this issue can be coped with in an effective fashion.
