How to be Cool on Instagram(抓拍神器)
Instagram is a game. Gaining likes and followers is no easy task unless you’re a beauty. But your social media luck is about to change, because a social media talent can help you to step up your Instagram game.
1.. My teenage sister, Grace, routinely breaks 150 likes on Instagram, no sweat, because she just gets it. 2..
1. Timing is everything
You can’t post photos willy-nilly. So when do you actually post? Sunday evening is “prime time” for likes, because everyone is bored and not doing homework. And it also implies to the real world.
2. 3.
People don’t care how much you’re feeling your look. No one needs to see eight pictures from your date night out. Remember, as my sister recommends, “You can’t give the people too much or they will be over it very quickly.”
3. Selfies(自拍)have strict rules
Basically, don’t just go around throwing up random selfies like the world is ending tomorrow. It’s not a cute look. Here’s what my sister had to say about selfies: Be spontaneous(自然率真)and fun. TBTs (Throwback Thursday) have to actually be TBTs. 4.. Instead, use TBTs for cute baby pictures and awkward middle school photos. It’s funny, according to the resident teens.
4. Putting your account on private is unnecessary
You should set your profile to public because you should have nothing to hide. Also, it gets you more followers, which is what you’re after. 5.. For it’s Instagram, after all. In the wise words of the teen, “Life is too short. Eat dessert first.”
A.Here’s what to do and, more importantly, what not to do
B.Most importantly, have fun and don’t take it too seriously
C.Gaining likes and followers is very interesting
D.Teenagers are tastemakers
E.Don’t post too much
F.Don’t be selfish
G.You aren’t fooling anyone if you TBT a recent photo
Last summer, bird-watchers confirmed the discovery of a new species of bird in Cambodia(柬埔寨): the Combodian tailorbird. It was not an event of particular biological significance but it was striking for one reason: This species of tailorbird was discovered not in an unspoiled rain forest but within the limits of Combodia’s capital, Phnom Penh.
We don’t typically think of the city as a likely habitat for natural life except rats and pigeons(鸽子), let alone as a hiding place for an undiscovered species of bird. But a new paper, published last week in the Proceedings of the Royal Society, proves it incorrect. A team of 24 researchers has studied birds and plants in 147 cities, and found that cities much more closely resemble their native habitats than they resemble each other.
It’s also true that in the world of birds and plants, as in human society, there is such thing as a world species who feels equally at home in Francisco, Milan and Beijing. Four birds appear in more than 80 percent of the cities studied, and 11 plants in more than 90 percent of the cities. On the plant side, those include meadow grass, shepherd’s purse, weeds. In the air, it’s the usual species: the pigeon, the house sparrow and the European starling(惊鸟). They all have become completely adapted to urban life.
However, not all cities are equal protectors of plants and animals, though. City design plays an important role in greening a city. In fact, the amount of green space is a stronger predictor of the biodiversity than a city’s size.
In a world where architecture, food, language, fashion and commerce are increasingly globalized, a city’s native plants and animals are considered as a kind of city identity. Cities tend to become similar, but their natural environments stand differently apart.
1.What does the author think of the discovery of the Cambodian tailorbird?
A.It is just an exception.
B.It is a wonder for the Cambodians.
C.It is an amazing biological event.
D.It is very common in the world.
2.Weeds and sparrows are found in many cities. This seems to be a result of ________.
A.complete adaption
B.natural selection
C.good urban design
D.rapid globalization
3.We can learn that while cities tend to become similar, their natural environments ________.
A.are becoming worse
B.remain diverse
C.are expanding in size
D.stay unchanged
4.What would be the best title for the text?
A.The Discovery of New Species of Bird in Cambodia
B.The Similarity of the Habitats in Different Cities
C.City’s Native Plants and Animals—A Kind of City Identity
D.City—Protector of Native Plants and Animals
