Internet
Internet is the biggest technological development in human history. The existence of the internet allows us to simplify almost all the works. Internet was created in 1962. JCR Licklider from MIT was the first to express this idea. The concept originally was a galactic network which was a global network with the ability to access the data and programs from wherever the user was located. Since the creation of the first, internet continues to grow and is currently used by people from all over the world with a variety of interests.
The largest community who use the internet in their life is students. However, for the students, the Internet has two sides, good and bad which are always present. It is an important part and is very beneficial for students because it through the Internet, a student is able to get information quickly for the sake of their school assignments. We know that there are a lot of blogs or websites that provide learning materials for students of all levels of education. All the information they obtain from the blog can be taken for free. Not surprisingly, now a student in dire need of a computer and internet wherever they are. Because, looking for information in the book sometimes is hard to do, and internet became a best solution ever. Second, it is a medium that connects one person to another. It is a medium of communication. For a student, this one is used to assist them in communicating with friends and teachers. In fact, today many a study conducted through Facebook where a teacher made a Facebook group that contains the children in her or his class. In the group, he or she communicates with the students remotely and not only that, it also provides a wide range of tasks and resolve questions of the students through that Facebook group. However, One of the biggest mistakes is making all the good and bad information can be accessed easily. On the internet, a student from every age can access the content freely which actually should not be allowed to see. They can get all the content freely and without any filter. A have no limit access can damage to the psychology of them and caused many criminal cases occur recently.
From the short discussion above, we can conclude that internet is divided into two sides. Good and bad side. As a human being, we certainly cannot escape away from the internet. We need it. Therefore, there needs to be an oversight, especially for teenagers to avoid the adverse effects of the internet itself.
There are so many positive impacts which can be felt by internet users such as: Internet users can get the information easily and quickly. By simply entering a keyword in the search engines, they will get what they are looking for. Internet users can also view location that wanted to see and very far without going to the location. This function can be obtained by using features such as Google earth.
Internet can be used by employers as media promotion. They can introduce their products for free and easily on the internet. Internet users especially students also can get so many references from books and material which is available on internet for free. There are so many sites that provide a wide range of references such as scientific journals, Wikipedia and many more. And the last, internet users can find out about the world and interact with all of the world’s population using social media such as Facebook, twitter and others.
In addition, Internet also can make most of students lazy to think about their task given by teacher because almost all of lessons they can get on the internet. Internet also decreases the role of library in real life. Library which is used as a place to read and find information is no longer used. Today students prefer using internet by accessing online media or references that they can get on the internet. the Internet also has some negative impact for its users such as: the freedom of information that can be obtained on the internet can be abused by its user. They use internet to open the forbidden sites such as pornography, gambling and others. These sites are accessible to people of all of ages whenever and wherever. Internet also can be used by people who are not responsible for hacking into secret archives in cyberspace. Commonly the perpetrators of these crimes are called hackers. They can even disrupt a country just by using the Internet.
For the individuals who bolster the Internet contend that Internet as a correspondence medium is most generally utilized as a part of the world. Web clients can correspond with different clients from around the globe utilizing online networking like Facebook, twitter, way and so on. What’s more, the Internet is likewise a wellspring of data that is extremely exceptional, in light of the fact that we can get data on different themes from the Internet effortlessly.
In instruction viewpoint, web extraordinarily helps instructors in creating routines and techniques for imaginative learning. What’s more, it likewise helps educators to impart to others and trade data about training. In trade, it turns into the principle resource in advancing an item (promoting), even now online store become quickly and offer the simplicity of exchange. In any case, a few individuals contend that the web vicinity is extremely aggravating their lives. They think the web is the fundamental driver of the considerable number of issues which happen in this life. There are such a large number of criminal cases happen today because of the web. For instance, instances of inappropriate behavior are enlivened by porn recordings effortlessly downloaded. Misrepresentation case in the realm of internet exchanging, web betting and the spread of provocative news that does not fit with the actualities.
Internet presence is rich of benefits for human life. But the Internet cannot avoid from abusing which leads to the rise of criminal acts. So, it all depends on where we want to use the benefit of it.

Pronouns: Subjective, Objective, Possessive, Demonstrative, & More
A pronoun is used in place of a noun or nouns. Common pronouns include he, her, him, I, it, me, she, them, they, us, and we. Here are some examples:
INSTEAD OF: Luma is a good athlete.
She is a good athlete. (The pronoun she replaces Luma.)
INSTEAD OF: The beans and tomatoes are fresh-picked.
They are fresh-picked. (The pronoun they replaces the beans and tomatoes.)
Often a pronoun takes the place of a particular noun. This noun is known as the antecedent. A pronoun "refers to," or directs your thoughts toward, its antecedent.
Let's call Luma and ask her to join the team. (Her is a pronoun; Luma is its antecedent.)
To find a pronoun's antecedent, ask yourself what that pronoun refers to. What does herrefer to in the sentence above—that is, who is the her? The her in the sentence is Luma; therefore, Luma is the antecedent.
Subjective Pronouns
A subjective pronoun acts as the subject of a sentence—it performs the action of the verb. The subjective pronouns are he, I, it, she, they, we,and you.
He spends ages looking out the window.

Objective Pronouns
