group of mothers around the world shared the ups and downs of parenting. This shows
the good part of using internet. Writers, boyfriends first few years on the net included a

chatting, gaming, social networking or any time passing activities. While higher level
user will use internet for informations, datas, facts, proves and so on. This phenomena
shows that internet can be helpful for everybody according to the aim of the users.
Anyhow in our current life we can see and hear happenings about online gambling
syndicate, terrorism through internet and any other negative occurrences in all around the

whatever they want. Exploration for informations will break the differences among

Task 2

1.

In your view, is the Internet addictive? Why or why not?

Internet is addictive. Same like any other addiction internet addiction also will
create lot of problems to humans. Family relationship will be first victim for addiction of
internet. Addicts will be unable to spend enough time for the members in the family.
Normal discussions and arguments also disappeared. Secondly the addicts life out of
family circle also will be affected. They will start to neglect gatherings and any other
social interactions. They will feel more comfortable in hanging online with their websites
and its contents.
Number of youngsters in sports activities decreasing. Many of them do not
involve their self in the world out internet. They feel happy and comfortable with
chatting online, playing online games, sharing photos in social networking programmes
and many others. They do not realize their real potential due to addiction of internet.
Students who addicted to internet also will fail in their studies.

2.

Can one find companionship online? Why or why not?

Yes. Nowadays internet is not only stops at one level. People who don have
computer and internet knowledge also started to get to know the internet. Basically
human need someone to share everything what ever he/she feel. Company will not
available for every time when needed. But internet is available for 24hours per day. So
whenever human need company they can refer to websites like blogspot, friendster,
facebook, flixter to find companionship and share their thoughts, discuss about any
relevant matters. Even they can make a free call by using Skype programme. So I think
finding companionship online is not an impossible matter.

3.

Do you agree with the author when she states, If you cant face the world, youll
always find somewhere to hide? Why or why not?

Yes. If there is a beginning then there is an ending point too. There are always
something to be done if we want in that style. The single thing we need is the eagersness

to do so. We should not be scared about the respond of it but the satisfaction. So, we can
do something that not against the rules if we want to get the victory.

4.

Is it safe to infer that the author believes that couples living together do not
communicate enough? Why or why not?
These couples are more willing to take time from home for work activities than
they are willing to take time from work for home activities. Couples are giving
themselves very little quality time to devote to confront and solve the inevitable conflicts
that will arise in their personal relationship. We can tell bravely that communication
among couples are really bad especially in the family where both husband and wife busy
with their work and using internet.
