Experts have confirmed youngsters who use Face book(美国一社交网站) do worse in exams.
For the study, the researchers quizzed 219 college students about their study habits and the time they spent on Face book. They found that 65 percent of Face book users used the net daily, often checking it several times to see if they had received new messages.
