题目

阅读理解 It's never hard to identify pictures from Instagram: They're usually bright-colored, shot with tasteful lighting, and the people and items are artfully arranged in the frames (画面). Instagram photos seem much similar to each other and to be effortlessly perfect. Even though it has been here for less than a decade, Instagram — a photo and video-sharing platform started in 2010 in the US — has redefined fashion, travel, food, and even art, because almost everyone wants to make themselves and things look "effortless" and "perfect". But every trend has its sell-by date, including the so-called "Instagram aesthetic (审美)". Once young people figured out that what appeared to be effortless was actually carefully staged, they lost interest immediately. To them, "trying too hard" is never cool. This is why a new trend is growing on Instagram - one that wants to be "more authentic", Lexie Carbone from social media marketing firm mentioned. For example, people have been posting "Instagram vs reality" photos to show the real side of themselves. One Instagram user, 22-year-old Reese Blutstein, has attracted over 238,000 followers since she began posting unfiltered photos of herself in strange outfits (装束). "For my generation, people are more willing to be who they are," said Blutstein. "We are trying to show a real person doing cool things as a real person, not trying to create a persona (人设) that isn't actually you." So perhaps the "Instagram aesthetic" is not coming to an end after all. It's just evolving — into a cooler and more honest version of itself. （1） What do the underlined words "sell-by date" in Paragraphs probably mean? A . end. B . direction. C . stage.
