Answer the questions 17 and 18 according to the text below.

on the Net. But my parents aren't pleased with this situation. They think that surfing on the Net
makes me lazy and disturbs my concentration, but I disagree with them. Because I don’t use
the Internet for only chatting with my friends on social networking sites, playing online games or
watching videos, but also I sometimes use it for practicing my foreign languages, reading online
books, following the latest news and doing my homework. I think they should learn that Internet
also has a lot of positive sides, too.
