聚会托福作文

With the development of modern society, having meals together with one’s family members has been regarded less and less important. Some people argue that it is not necessary for adults and kids to share their dinner time as a routine. They list a couple of situations where individuals have various kinds of reasons to miss a united meal, such as the one that parents may come home very late due to their busy work. However, in my perspective, spending time with each other at the dinner table has its own benefits and should be followed by us. My reasons and examples are listed as follows.

On the one hand, having meals together on a regular basis can help parents spend adequate time accompanying their children. During the daytime, adults in a family will be at work and the young will have classes in school. So usually it is the precious chance for the grown-ups to pay attention to their kids’ life, communicating with them and offering some advice to their puzzles. Take Black Obama, the former president of America as an example. Mr. and Mrs. Obama both had a tight schedule every day when Mr. Obama was in his presidency. In addition, Mrs. Obama, as a diligent lawyer, also needed to invest lots of time in her career. Nevertheless, this outstanding couple never missed their dinner with two daughters. Mr. Obama once told the media that during their meal time, nothing political or severe would be talked about; instead, their topics were all around ordinary things happening in kids’ school life, such as how to communicate with peers or the way to accomplish a composition. The reason why this couple is able to sustain this habit is they think it is one of the best methods to ensure their caring towards their daughters.

On the other hand, eating delicious food together in a fixed time can serve as a bridge for parents to teach their kids health eating habits. As an old saying goes, ‘You are what you eat.’ It tells us that whether or not the meal we eat is healthy may have a significant impact on our body condition, especially for the young one with a growing body. With regularly dinner together, the grown-ups can deliver some knowledge to their children. During my primary school years, my father insisted that we should have dinner together every week day in order to give advice to our eating. I still remember at that time, beef and pork were initially my favorite while I had no interests in vegetables. It took my parents several weeks to help me get used to eat certain kinds of vegetables such as broccoli each day. Thus actually led to a future balanced diet of me and it was proved to contribute a lot to my health.

In conclusion, having regular family meals has a couple of benefits. Spending time with family member regularly can not only strengthen the emotional bond among each one but also help the young in a family to obtain a healthy life style.

家庭聚会托福作文

In the 21st century, there has been dramatic improvement in diverse aspects of people’s lives. However, people are becoming increasingly busy and sometimes are overwhelmed by endless work or study. As a result, less time is devoted into families and people no longer have meals regularly with family members. In my opinion, this is totally mistaken and it is significant for people to eat with family members regularly despite of the change of time. My reasons are as follows.

To begin with, for parents, having regular meals with children can promote parental relationship. Due to people’s busy daily schedules, parents and children tend to have less conversation nowadays. Children spend most of their time learning in school and playing with peers; adults are occupied with their work and socializing with colleagues. The importance of having family meals is ignored. People forget that time spend at the table can be meaningful. For example, parents can discover the problems that their children struggle with. They can provide guidance or inspire children to find out solution by giving them some nice tips. In this way, children can feel the care and love from parents and parents can know about children’s thoughts. It brings mutual benefits.

In addition, for couples, having regular meals can strengthen partners’ relationship. Common sense tells us that as time goes by, passion between lovers decreases. The lack of communication can also result in marriage problems or even serious crises. By spending some quality time with our beloved companion at meal table we can listen and understand each other better. Ensuring at least one meal with our partners a day shows one’s care and how much we value the other person in spite of the busy schedule. Willing to make time for someone is a great way to demonstrate love.

Lastly, for children, it is of great significance to have regular meals with our aging parents. Young people today are busy with their own work and personal life and they often neglect the feelings of the elders. Some may give money regularly to the elder instead of going home to accompany them because they think financial means is a good way to show their love and care. However, according to a survey conducted by Beijing Normal University, after polling tens of thousands of old people, the top priority of their wishes is expecting their sons and daughters to go home regularly and have regular meals with them. The survey also indicates that the elders who are regularly accompanied by their family members tend to live longer and happier.

All in all, considering the essential role that regular eating with families plays on children, companion and the elder, I insist that it is still of great importance for people to eat with families regularly nowadays.
