题目大意：

人们陪伴家人的时间越来越少。原因是什么？这种现象对个人和家庭有何影响？

思路解析：

这是一道报告类大作文，文章讨论的人们陪伴家人的时间越来越少的原因和对个人及家庭的影响。审题时候要注意：spend more time away from families 和 effects on people and their families，讨论的时候一定要围绕着关键词来进行。报告类的文章结构比较简单，根据问什么答什么的原则，2个主体段分别回应2个部分；主体段-1分析原因；主体段-2 讨论对双方的影响是积极的还是消极的。

我们先来看原因，主要来自于三方面。

一是由于交通便捷等因素，人们越来越容易去到异地求学或是工作，这意味着和家人在平时不得不分隔两地生活，能够陪伴家人的时间也就变得更少了。

二是生活压力变大了，现代人生活可能会面临房贷、车贷、孩子教育等等诸多经济负担，因此不得不花更多精力在工作赚钱，相应的能够用来陪伴家人的时间和精力就变少了。

三是现在的人们相比过去有更多的机会可以去追求个人事业的成功或是别的梦想，这些都需要耗费许多时间，也就意味着能够陪伴家人的时间会少很多。

再来看对双方的影响。陪伴家人的时间变少，意味着家人之间相处机会和沟通机会都会变少，甚至会缺席一些重要的需要家人陪伴的时刻。因为缺乏沟通和陪伴，可能会导致家人之间的矛盾增加、情感关系变弱甚至互相产生不满，可能会增加夫妻间、亲子间感情破裂的风险。

范文示例：

Today there is an impending trend that people fail to afford much time with families. From my perspective, such a tendency can be attributed to work/life imbalance, and I am not optimistic to its ramifications on individuals and families. 

Why the majority fail to have quality time is a symptom of problem to which I see the reality pressure as an answer. Living in a consumer society, many individuals are inundated with a multitude of impediments embedded in everyday life, whether these be mortgage or educational costs of children. Only by pushing themselves to be workaholics can they earn more money to pay all bills. Another factor that deprives people of family life is their ambitions for career prospects: enterprising young minds aspire to further personal careers, thus leading to their venerating work over families.  

As for the implications of shrinking quality time among younger generations, it is difficult for me to see it as anything other than a curse on both individuals and their families. The first problem to realize is the threat to emotional bonds between family members – people spending more time outside families inevitably results in their missing out on many quality moments, whether it be the birthdays of their loved ones, or wedding anniversaries. To make thinks worse, such a conundrum may put marriage into jeopardy: one of the key culprits leading to divorce among young couples is either party’s ignorance about families.     

From what has been discussed above, it is my conclusion therefore, being away from families is the result of both economic pressure and career aspirations, and what concerns me more is the repercussions of this trend on family relationships.
