FACEBOOK ADMITS SOCIAL MEDIA CAN HARM MENTAL HEALTH

(1) Facebook has released new research suggesting social media can harm mental health when used in certain ways,

(2) Research suggested that social media users who spent a lot of time only reading information - but not interacting with others - reported feeling worse afterward. Users who had interaction during the experience reported having better feelings.

(3) The report noted that some research makes a strong connection between technology use and teen depression. Problems may arise because mobile phones have redefined relationships, creating a state of people being "alone together" Some people become depressed by looking at social media profiles and posts of others and then making negative comparisons to themselves.

(4) Nevertheless, a study by Carnegie Mellon University suggested positive results for increased interaction. It found people who sent or received more messages and comments on their personal pages reported better improvements in social support, depression and loneliness.

(5) Cal Newport, a professor of computer science at Georgetown University, studied and written a lot about the harmful effects of social media. He said that most major social media companies now employ "attention engineers" to help design products that are as addictive as possible. Social media use cart break up a person's attention throughout the day. Evidence shows that over time this can permanently reduce an

individual's ability to fully concentrate, possibly limiting education and job success. Research confirms that social media use can lead to loneliness, depression and anxiety. Newport urges everyone to consider quitting social media.

The town of Tver stands on the Great Russian River Volga. Tver is one of the oldest Russian towns. It is 12 years older than Moscow. Tver was founded in 1135. It played a great role in the early history of our country. In 1755 Tver became the principle town of the Tver province.

The centre of the town was designed by the well-known Russian architects Nikitin, Kasakov, and Kvasov at the end of the | 8" century. This centre has been preserved to our days.
