预测范文
The chart above clearly demonstrates the total number of fans followers paying close attention to the Microblog of entertainment stars from 2017 to 2018. In2017, the number was at a low level of12.8 billion, while within one year, it reached 16.7 billion,a rise of 3.9 billion.
Undoubtedly, the diagram demonstrates the social phenomenon ofidol worship, which is prevalent among the teenagers nowadays. Briefly speaking, young people are inclined toidolize those who excel in appearance or talent. For instance, Su Bingtian represents the imageof asports hero, whose handsome appearance and unparalleled skills are passionately adored by his sports fans. By contrast, several teenage boys and girls win their fame overnight in a great many contests on TV, which provokes noisy nationwide debates on the value and harm of admiring these idols.
In my opinion, idolatry is a double-edged sword which can exert profound influence for either good or bad on the growth of young people. On the contrary, if we endeavor to improve ourselves by bridging the gap between our role models and us, we will lead a positive and fruitful life.

参考译文
上述图表清楚地显示了2017至2018年关注娱乐明星微博的粉丝总人次。在2017年，这一数字为128亿，处于较低水平，而在一年的时间中，这一数字达到了167亿，增长了39亿。
毫无疑问，图表反映了一个社会现象：偶像崇拜目前在年轻人中非常盛行。简言之，年轻人往往容易崇拜那些在外表或才华方面极其出色的人。例如，苏炳添代表了体育界英雄的形象，他的英俊外表以及高超能力正是其粉丝们热情追捧的。相比之下，一些少男少女在电视上的很多比赛中一夜成名，这激起全国范围内关于崇拜偶像的意义和危害的热烈讨论。
在我看来，偶像崇拜其实是把双刃剑，对年轻人的成长产生或好或坏的深刻影响。相反，如果我们靠缩小我们和榜样之间的差距来努力提高自己，我们就会拥有积极且硕果累累的生活。
