The Internet is an important part of our life now. It helps pupils a lot in their studying. You don’t need to go to the library to get a book for your literature lesson. There are many sites where you can find necessary information. If you are going to make a school project, you can surf the Net and get information on any topic. Doing shopping, booking tickets, watching popular clips, sharing interesting ideas, communicating, downloading music are the things you can do online.
Can you live without the Internet? It seems you can do everything there. But is it good to spend too much time on the Internet?
