Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D to indicate

the correct answer.
Facebook users spend an average of more than 15 hours a month on social
networking sites. While there are plenty who caution against such intensive use -
and there are a number of studies detailing the harm Facebook could potentially
cause - there also are lots of reports extolling the site's virtues. As the social
media giant prepares for its upcoming initial public offering, here are some ways
Facebook just might be good for you.
Spending time on Facebook can help people relax, slow down their heart rate
and decrease stress levels, according to researchers from the Massachusetts
Institute of Technology and the University of Milan. In a study published earlier
this year, researchers studied 30 students and found that a natural high was
sparked when they were on the social media network that led to relaxed heart
rates and lower levels of stress and tension. In the study, the students were
monitored in three situations: looking at panoramic landscapes, performing
complicated mathematical equations and using Facebook. While the first situation
was the most relaxing for students and the math problems were the most
stressful, the time on Facebook uncovered high levels of attractiveness and
arousal. The findings support the researchers’ hypothesis that Facebook's
success, as well as that of other social media networks, correlates to the specific
positive mental and physical state users experience.
While many may argue that social media networks only distract employees,
research shows the opposite may be true. Research from Keas.com found that a
10-minute Facebook break makes employees happier, healthier and more
productive. The study examined workers in three groups: one that was allowed
no breaks, one that was allowed to do anything but use the Internet and one that
was allowed 10 minutes to use the Internet and Facebook. The Facebook group
was found to be 16 percent more productive than the group that was not allowed
to use the Internet and nearly 40 percent more productive than the group that
was allowed no breaks. "Short and unobtrusive breaks, such as a quick surf on
the Internet, enables the mind to rest itself, leading to a higher net total
concentration for a day's work, and as a result, increased productivity," said
Brent Coker of the department of management and marketing at the University of
Melbourne in Australia.
 Facebook is also in the business of matchmaking. Research shows that nearly
60 percent of singles will friend someone new on Facebook after meeting them in
person. If they like what they see, 25 percent are likely to contact their new love
interest via Facebook. Once the courting is over, nearly 40 percent of those
social networking adults will update their relationship status on Facebook, with
just 24 percent telling their friends first. Facebook use between couples will
continue through the dating process, the research shows. Throughout the day, 79
percent of couples said they send partners Facebook messages or chat on the
social network. In addition, more than 60 percent would post romantic messages
on their significant other's Facebook wall. When the relationship ends, more than
half of those surveyed immediately update their status to single, which
automatically sends out a notification to their friend list to start the dating cycle
over again.
