This is something particularly bothering young adults, according to a study from the University of Pittsburgh. It found the more they ud social media, the more
likely they were to be depresd (沮丧的). In tests, tho people who checked social media frequently were 2.7 times more likely to be depresd pared to tho who spent most of their time generally surfing the Internet, who had just 1.7 times the risk.
Some of us certainly feel sad when we're ignored on social media sites, or when we e someone el having a better time than us. But depression is a more rious condition and clinical psychologist, Abigael San, recently told the BBC that, “It's a real issue, and it's been getting significantly wor over the last 5 － 6 years. You can get so hooked that it takes you away from your real relatio nships.” However, Abigael does admit that social media is more likely to worn preexisting issues than directly cau them.麻辣面条
Other rearch by the University of Glasgow found that teenagers are affected by the 24hour demands of their social media account s. It found that tho with higher levels of emotional investment in social media, and who u it at night, were more likely to feel depresd and anxious.
Despite the warning signs, why do some of us continue to keep clicking? Well, I suppo we all want to be liked and we don't want to miss out on a conversation that's taking place online. But we need to know when to switch off our virtual (虚拟的) online world and connect with the real world instead.

公司组织结构怎么写(xx·重庆一模)
The first potatoes were grown by the Incas of South America, more than 400 years ago. Their descendants (后代) in Eenador and Chile continue to grow the vegetable as high as 14,000 feet up in the Andes Mountains, (That's higher than any other food will grow.) Early Spanish and English explorers shipped potatoes to Europe, and they
found their way to North America in the early 1600s.
People eat potatoes in many ways — baked, mashed, and roasted, to name just three. However, in the United States most potatoes are eaten in the form of French fries. One fastfood chain al one lls more than $ 1 billion worth of fries each year. No wonder, then, that the pany pays particular attention to the way its fries are prepared.
Before any fry makes it to the people who eat at the popular restaurants, it must pass many parate tests. Fail any one of the tests and the potato is rejected. To start with, only Rust Burbank potatoes are ud. The Idaho potatoes have less water content than other kinds, which can have as much as 80 percent water. Once cut into “shoestrings” shapes, the potatoes are partly fried in a cret blend of oils, sprayed with liquid sugar to brown them, steam dried at high heat, then flash frozen for shipment to individual restaurants.
Before shipping, every shoestring is measured. Forty percent of a batch must be between two and three inches long. Another 40 percent has to be over three inches. What about the 20 percent that are left in the batch? Well, a few short fries in a bag are okay, it ems.
So, now that you realize the enormous size and value of the potato crop, you can understand why most people agree that this part of the food industry is no “small potatoes”．
