A. Do the names “MySpace”, “Facebook”, “Vkontakte” sound familiar? They probably do because they are some of the most popular sites on the Internet. They are all called “social networks” because they help people meet and discuss things online. Each of these social networks has its own strengths. The common thing between all of them is that they provide a place for people to interact, rather than a place to go to read or listen to content.

B. With the constant use of these social technologies, children today don’t know how to talk face to face with people. They would rather text than think about having a verbal conversation. It becomes hard for them to make friends. They are becoming more isolated and they get used to communicating only through their computer. They may even become selfish personalities and lose interest in real life.

C. Today, school teachers and university professors can create an online environment that encourages the exchange of ideas and resources. Social networks and other digital technology can enrich the classroom experience by connecting students with peers and experts around the globe. Through Skype, for example, classes can use real-time video chats as part of joint projects with other schools, no matter where they’re located.

D. Anyone with an online account knows that a quick check of your profile can turn into an hour-long thing - at least. Minutes pass by and you don’t feel that. The five minutes turn into half an hour. And then, an hour later, you’re wondering how that has happened. Instead of doing something really important, you’ve just wasted an hour sitting at a computer or looking down at a screen. It steals your life away.

E. Social networks give everyone the ability to become a different person. You can escape reality and create the image of yourself online. However, this image can be totally different from real life. Some users create profiles using false names and pictures. Others list fake birth-days to make themselves look younger or older. The thing is, it’s hard to check what’s true and what’s not. On a social network you never know what you’re going to get in reality.

F. Many college students cannot imagine a day without “Twitter” or “Facebook”, but according to a recent study, using social media may harm school marks. Teachers say teenagers don’t spend enough time on their home-work. Students, who use “Facebook” while they study, get much poorer grades than those who don’t. A study has found that the exam marks of those who didn’t use social networks while working were 20 per cent higher than those who used them.

G. Teens are putting too much information on social media. They post their phone numbers, addresses, age, school and much more. You don’t know who will see this information and what they are going to do with it. You may not realize the dangers till it is too late. You should think twice before giving your information to people on social media. Would you leave your door open to strangers?
