How does the phrase "a million mosquitoes" affect the passage?

A. It implies that there is a large amount of mosquitoes in the yard.  

“A million something” (in this case mosquitoes) is an hyperbolic figure of speech used to imply a large or excessive amount of something. Option B about Jack not being a reliable narrator could have been a possible answer but the passage is written using a third-person point of view, so Jack is not a narrator.

Answer:

Internet Addiction Disorder

The biggest negative impact of Internet is the ‘Internet Addiction Disorder’. Well, since the researches about this Internet disease are still going on, so it is hard to define it at this time. The person suffering from this disease behaves in the way as he/she is always on the Internet, even when there is no Internet. This Internet disease has been found mostly among the young adults. Recent surveys conducted in America estimated that around 10-15 million people are there who are suffering from Internet Addiction Disorder. The count is indeed very big and is increasing every year.

Reduced Physical Activity

Gone are the days when children used to play outdoor games. Now they prefer to play games online which do not involve any physical activity. Due to addiction of Internet, many people are doing less physical activities. This is one big reason why obesity is common to find nowadays. Continuous use of Internet is bad for our eyesight as well.

Conclusion

Well, the negative impacts of Internet do not mean that one should stop using it. The positive points are more than the negative ones. How one person uses Internet depends completely on him/her. No one is forced to use Internet in any particular way. You must try to use it for good purposes only; otherwise, Internet is the biggest curse for you by modern technological world.
