Spending your free time on the Internet can be fun. You can chat, share photos with friends, and play online games. But some people are addicted to the Internet. They just can’t turn it off.
Being online for many hours at a time does not mean you have a problem. The
Internet is very useful. Online, you can pay your bills, buy clothes, and read the news.
There are many good reasons to spend time online. However, people with an Internet
addiction are online too much. They don’t spend time with their friends and family.
Instead, they spend their time chatting with their Internet friends, people they have never
met in real life. Some also play online games all day or night. Some people with Internet
addictions even leave their jobs so they can spend even more time online! People with
Internet addictions don’t just go online to shop, have fun, or do work. People who have
this problem often go online because they want to escape the stress and problems in their
lives. Many internet addicts stop caring about their real lives, and focus only on their
online lives.
One way Internet addicts can get help is by using special software. This software
controls how much time someone can spend online. It tells the computer to turn off the
internet after a certain amount time. This helps people focus on real life. The software’s
goal is to teach people to use the Internet for good reasons and not just as an escape.
15. People with Internet addiction spend most of their free time on the Internet.
16. Internet addiction causes problems in one’s daily life.

Find native English speakers In certain areas it’s the hardest thing to do, but it’s the best use of your time. Talking to actual native speakers is the most effective way to improve your English skills, speaking or otherwise. So whether you have to Skype them, call them, or beg them to speak to you, do so. Your progress will be faster this way than any other.
Listen to the music of English No, not English music, the music of English - its lilt, its prosody, the sing-songy-ness of it. The intonation. Even if you speak perfect English technically, if you speak it like a robot you’re not speaking it the way it’s meant to be spoken.
Slow down Above all, if you want to be understood, slow down. The more clearly you speak, the better chance your listener has of understanding you. It’s tempting to get nervous and want to speed up to get it all over with, but you can’t do that! Clarity is key - for some native English speakers, too!
Record yourself Though we hear ourselves all the time, we really don’t know quite what we sound like. So record yourself! What are the weak and strong points you hear in your speech? And then you can concentrate on what you need to work on.
Speak English at home This is the biggest, easiest mistake to make. You go about your day, you’re on the job working partly in English, you go to your English class, and then you go home and revert back to your native tongue. While you may be making slow improvements, you’ll never get past that dreaded lingual plateau. Make a point to speak it at home, too. Have only English at the dinner table. Stick to English TV at home. Make it as 24/7 as possible.
Talking to actual native speakers is the least effective way to improve your English skills
