问题     Internet use appears to cause a decline in psychological well-being, according to research at Carnegie Mellon University. Even people who spent just a few hours a week on the Internet 【S1】______ more depression and loneliness than those who logged on less frequently, the two-year study showed. And it wasn’t that people who were already feeling 【S2】______ spent more time on the Internet, but that using the Net 【S3】______ appeared to cause the bad feelings.

Faceless, bodiless "virtual" 【S7】______ may be less psychologically satisfying than actual conversation, and the relationships formed through it may be shallower. Another possibility is that 【S8】______ to the wider world via the Net makes users less satisfied with their lives. "But it’s important to 【S9】______ this is not about the technology itself; it’s about how it is used," says psychologist Christine Riley of Intel, one of the study’s sponsors. "It really 【S10】______ to the need for considering social factors in terms of how you design applications and services for technology."
