Scientists at the University of Michigan studied 82 teenagers
over the course of two weeks, and looked at the relationship
between unhappiness and their Facebook usage. The findings
show a connection between more time on Facebook and negative
feelings, such as low self-esteem, loneliness, and decreased
subjective wellbeing.
Does the study surprise you? Well, if you often check out your
friends＇ walls and all you see is how nice their lives are
while you’re browsing their Facebook site, it might make sense,
right? Facebook and other social networking sites give almost
everyone’s life a kind of glamour that might not actually
exist. So that’s probably how the phrase “Fear of Missing
Out＂ or FOMO was coined. If you think that everyone’s life
is as perfect as it looks on Facebook, you are more likely to
feel more sad and lonely. 【題組】50. The word, “decreased,＂ in the first paragraph most likely
means _____.
(A) increased
(B) devalued
(C) developed
(D) lessened
