雅思寫作范文：人們工作生活失去平衡的原因

Task：Many people fail to achieve a balance between work and the other parts of life. What causes the situation? How to overcome this problem?

思路解析：

1. 根本的原因之一在于，巨大的工作競爭和壓力讓人們變成工作狂。為了保住飯碗，他們不得不長時間的加班，開會，來確保他們在工作上有一個好的表現(xiàn)，也表現(xiàn)出他們對于公司的貢獻和忠誠。

2. 另外一個原因在于，科技不斷地提高著人們的工作量和工作預(yù)期。舉例，電燈的發(fā)明讓員工們在晚上加班成為可能;手機也模糊了工作和休息的界限，讓人們在私人時間，周末，甚至是出門旅游的時候，也總是接到關(guān)于工作的短信和指示，這讓他們無法顧忌自己的休息和照顧家庭。

3. 如何恢復(fù)工作和生活的平衡，取決于如下幾個方面：首先，公司應(yīng)該提供終身的工作合同，這能減少員工對于下崗的恐懼和壓力，也讓他們能把一些注意力用于個人生活。此外，工作時間應(yīng)該被嚴(yán)格控制，禁止深夜和周末的加班。此外，人們在私人時間的時候，也應(yīng)該遠(yuǎn)離那些通訊工具，不然自己被工作信息所困擾。

Nowadays, there has been a heated social trend that the whole life of people tends to be surrounded by work, so that they are lack of time for the personal lives. In the following words, I will give possible relevant causes and solutions to this social issue.

This phenomenon stems from many causes, and the first one is about employment. In fact, limited job positions, in conjunction with the overpopulation and a declined economy, make the job competition increasingly fierce. For the security of jobs, all employees have to devote themselves into work to keep a good performance. Besides, working hard also represents their loyalty and values to the companies.

Another direct cause is driven by new technologies which serve a function of enhancing the working expectation among employees today. For example, the invention of electronic lights has made working at night available for workers, thus prolonging the work time. Similarly, the wide application of cell phones blurs the border between working and living. In leisure time of weekends and holidays, calls and messages from the companies, leaders of workplaces and clients frequently interrupt and even cancel the leisure plans of employees, as well as stealing their private time that could be spent on the family, children, and parties with friends.

In order to recover a balance between working and living, I think there should be combinative efforts of social laws, companies and individuals. Firstly, it is the responsibility of the government to strictly enact and carry out the laws of limiting the number of working hours in all positions of companies, which can ensure that employees have enough private time for leisure, exercise and family. Secondly, on the level of companies, they should provide life-long contracts, instead of temporary ones, to staff. Under a long-term security of employment, workers would get rid of the fear of losing jobs, and can devote themselves into working in moderation, rather than becoming workaholics. Lastly, employees should change a work-oriented lifestyle after a hard day at work, for example, ignoring emails, text messages and instructions sent from companies, which is a good way helping them to shift their concentration from working back to living.
