Do you agree or not that the extended family (grandparents, cousins, uncles and antes)becomes less important nowadays than it was in the past? Use specific reasonsand examples to support your answer.- q# K( |% E8 q
Most of people, whose ages are about 20, do not have sisters or brothers. They are the only child in their families. That is due to a policy to keep the population from being too large in China, which begin to be effective about 20 years ago . So these young people rarely have sisters or brothers to play or communicate with. While their parents have more than one sisters or brothers.
As a result, the extended family, such as cousins
seems much more important now. Because they become close people, we will choose to communicate with them. When I was young, my parents usually take me to my aunty home to spend our weekends. And I enjoyed my time with my cousin there. We may walk in the pathway with the beautiful sunset, talking about the interesting things we met in the school, or cycling along the avenue. As time goes by, I have to declare that my cousin becomes one of my best+ x, \( s0 p4 f# T# ]- ?7 n
friends and an(应该是a吧) very important person in my life. Nowadays when I am upset, I will call my cousin and tell him what my problem is.

To some extent, this is because most of us do have brothers and sisters like our parents,at the same time, we need to communicate with others. So cousins stand out in front of us.(理由过于牵强,只是强调表兄弟的重要性,对于别人并不一定适用) n5 r4 |0 j' R
And grandparents are also important to us. In my family, as my parents are busy with working, when I was in elementary school, my grandma
live with us and prepared the meals for me almost everyday. At the same time she taught me some morale disciplines by what she did, which are essential to the growth of me.
As far as I am concerned, aunts are crucial to me. One of my aunts is very successful in business. And she sets a good example for my family especially for me.' q4 s6 }* Q) q! B% o
Some people may argue that, the communication among them and their extended family are vaning. Because the accelerating pace of lives and the fierce competition, make them had to focus on the job, and being lack of time with their families, let alone the extended family. In the contrary, I think that can not be the excuse, and we need to contact with our extended family more, which can both strengthen the relationships and relieve the pressure from the jobs.
