Claude Monet，Pablo Picasso and Leonardo da Vinci...the art world has never been short of talent.And now，a new painter is ready to join the list，although this one isn't even a human. Next month，the auction house Christie's Prints and Multiples will make history by offering the first piece of artwork created by artificial intelligence（AI） for sale.The painting is a portrait of a man called Edmond de Belamy.The work，which features a man with a mysterious look on his face，was created by software developed by the French art group Obvious. Nicolas Laugero Lasserre，an art collector，called the work "strange and amazing at the same time".This isn't the first example of AI-produced artwork，as AI has already been used to write poems and compose songs.However，many people doubt whether it should be called art.According to Russian writer Leo Tolstoy，art is about creating emotion.He once said that art is a means of joining people together in the same feelings. So，if the emotion behind art is what makes it，the ability to create and use tools is what makes human beings different from other species.And as a tool itself，the AI technology used to create the portrait is the result of a lot of effort made by several designers.Together，they "fed" the AI a huge collection of paintings from the 14th to the 18th centuries，until it was able to work out how to make similar paintings of its own. The introduction of AI art could be the beginning of a new artistic movement.However，not everyone is ready to welcome these high-tech artists just yet."The human mind is what's behind the AI technology.And the human mind is not a cold，hard fact，" said Oscar Schwartz，a researcher and writer."Rather，it is something that's created with our opinions and something that changes over time."（1）What can we know about the AI-produced artwork？ ______A.It is about to be sold.B.It is created by a robot.C.It is designed by a portrait painter.D.It is the second artwork produced by AI.（2）Why is Leo Tolstoy mentioned？ ______A.To present his opinion about art.B.To stress the value of the artwork.C.To show the definition of emotion.D.To question the AI-produced artwork.（3）What can be inferred from Oscar Schwartz's words？ ______A.I art doesn't change over time.B.AI art is similar to human artworks.C.AI art comes from the human mind.D.AI art is beyond humans' imagination.（4）Where is the text most likely from？ ______A. guidebook.B.A textbook.C.A science novel.D.A newspaper.
