The internet is not just a convenience anymore; it is truly a necessity. Without it, many aspects of modern life, like online transactions and communication, would become extremely difficult. For me, it has become an essential part of survival in today’s digital age.

2. What do you usually use the internet for?

In addition, I often watch movies, listen to music, and read news articles online. Even for small things, like checking the weather or directions, I depend on the internet. It has truly become a multi-purpose tool that supports both my education and personal life.

3. Do you think you spend too much time on the internet?

Band 7:
Yes, sometimes I feel I spend too much time online. I use it for studying, but also for entertainment, and it can take many hours. Sometimes I plan to use it for only a few minutes, but I end up spending more time. It is not always a waste because I learn things and stay connected. But I know I should balance my time better. Spending too long online can make me less active. So, I try to control it.

Band 8:
I do think I spend quite a lot of time on the internet, and sometimes it feels excessive. While much of it is productive, like studying or managing online transactions, a large part also goes into entertainment, such as watching videos or browsing social media. The problem is that it’s very easy to lose track of time once you go online. Even though I learn new things and stay informed, I believe spending too much time online reduces physical activity and real-world interactions. I am trying to develop better habits, but it’s difficult because the internet is so engaging and necessary. Striking a balance is definitely important for me.

Communication has also improved significantly, as I can instantly connect with my family and friends through messages, calls, or even video chats. For entertainment, I no longer rely on television because movies, music, and even live events are available online. In short, the internet has made everything faster, easier, and more efficient, and I honestly can’t imagine life without it anymore.
